Show Notes

Introducing you to inspiring wilderness connoisseur and professional guide trainer, Grant Reed. 

For just under 20-years Grant and his family have dedicated their careers to establishing a world class training school – The African Guide Academy. We talk to Grant about the school and how international visitors can take part in compact (7-day) or thorough (1-month) guide training courses and why it is one of the most rewarding and truly immersive wilderness experiences any traveller can have when coming to Africa. Set in remote concession in the Okavango Delta, Botswana, Grant shares his stories, values and experiences which will surely inspire you to come and take part in this incredible opportunity to learn about the African bush! 

You can find out more about the courses on https://www.guidetrainingcourses.com

The company also run organised wilderness adventures throughout Botswana and neighbouring countries https://www.guidetrainingcourses.com

Grant and his team also launched their very own wildlife app for Botswana which can be downloaded off the app store by searching for BOTSWANA WILDLIFE GUIDE
