Veteran wildlife safari guide Garth Thompson has produced the ultimate wildlife guide, The Guide’s Guide to Guiding. Not only is the book aimed at would-be guides, but at current guides and all who have a love and appreciation for the great outdoors – and a desire to share this passion with others. Wildlife guiding in Africa’s extraordinarily varied and countless parks and safari areas is fast becoming a much sought-after occupation.

Nearly thirty years of active guiding throughout Africa, with assorted clients from all over the world, allows Garth Thompson to pass on his knowledge and, importantly, the knowledge that he gained from his years in the bush. The text is enhanced by the artful cartoons of Dov Fedler, which add light-hearted humour, another skill to be added to the guide’s backpack!

In a relaxed style, Thompson illustrates the principles of guiding with real-life stories. Throughout the book he concentrates on the dreams, expectations and aspirations that the client, guest and tourist has of a safari in whichever African country they choose to visit. Often a once-in-a-lifetime experience for the visitor, this book is more than aid for guides, it is essential and enriching – for all involved!
