Commercial Manager I am the Commercial Manager for Africa Sky and look after all of our hotels and safaris that we offer. I was born in Kenya and have personal knowledge of this wonderful country. I have traveled extensively over Africa including South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Tanzania, Zanzibar and Lamu. I’ve stayed in luxury 5* properties, camped out in the wilderness, stayed in private villas on luxury islands and rested in banana leaf huts on deserted beaches -all of which offer something unique and exciting.

I’m often asked where my favorite destination in Africa is, how can you reply to a question like this, it is impossible – my answer – each country is fantastic and each offers a completely unique experience. The only answer is to visit & see for yourself!

Our team at Africa Sky are passionate about anything & everything Africa and are dedicated to offering you the best service & information for your Africa trip.

Africa Specialist Michael’s first taste of Africa came in 2001 when he embarked on a 5 day safari to the Masai Mara in Kenya. Passionate about wildlife as a small boy this only helped fuel his desire to travel the continent’s wilderness regions more. So a year later, disillusioned with life in the U.K. he enrolled on a safari guide’s training course in South Africa, which had been advertised on television. This opened the door to his career in the safari industry in Namibia landing a job with Wilderness Safaris.

During his 3 years with Wilderness Michael guided in many of Namibia’s prime locations for tourism including Sossusvlei & the Namib Desert, Damaraland, Kaokoland, and the Etosha National Park. He followed this up with a further 3 years of guiding tours throughout Namibia, and even finished up his time in Namibia training the next generation of Namibian guides in several regions of the country.

Tours to Botswana and Zambia added to his knowledge and experience of southern Africa before returning to England to work for Africa Sky earlier this year.

Due to extensive experience and expertise in Namibia, and safaris to other countries Michael is the perfect person to speak to about organizing your own tailor-made safari in Namibia or any of the adjacent southern African countries.

Africa Specialist Africa is my favourite area of the world and I am very passionate about the destination. I have travelled extensively around Kenya, and even worked there for 6 weeks! That’s how much I love it. I have also visited South Africa, another beautiful place and travelled around the Western Cape. The view is amazing from Table Mountain!

In Kenya I particularly enjoyed staying at the Amboseli Porini Camp and Nakuru, where I saw numerous Rhino which was so exciting. I also especially enjoyed the Mara, where the photo opportunities are endless. Tsavo East is very accessible from the Mombasa Coast & one of my favourite memories was staying at Satao Camp where I had a tent right by the watering hole, sitting on my terrace as the sun was coming down, watching a herd of giraffe coming in for some water, amazing!!

South Africa, is also an amazing place, full of colourful characters. I enjoyed the delights of the Wine lands, visiting Stellenbosch, and staying in Hermanus.

So what are you waiting for, I will be delighted to talk through my experiences and help you choose your dream holiday to Africa.
