The Savannah is a diverse and dramatic environment found across the world and home to many amazing animals from elephants, lions and hyenas in Africa to kangeroos in Australia.
Working with experts with extensive experience of group work in this environment and paying particular attention to the African savannah we have again designed a course to combine an understanding and appreciation of this environment with the key skills groups need to enjoy safe and successful trips in this amazing environment.
Who is the course suitable for?
- Leaders or instructors who want to lead expeditions in the savannah.
- Leaders with past experience who want
to benchmark current best practice.
- Teachers going on expeditions to savannah destinations
who want to feel informed and confident in the environment.
- Researchers or adventure travellers planning to
travel in the savannah.
- Anyone who would like to understand and appreciate more about this environment.
