MORE ABOUT GRANT ATKINSON

Grant is a highly acclaimed wildlife photographer and special-interest photographic guide. His vast guiding experience and 12 years spent living and guiding in Botswana have allowed him to develop a deep understanding of animal behaviour, something that he believes is the key advantage in capturing that once-in-a-lifetime shot.

Grant’s knowledge, love and appreciation of wildlife, coupled with his ability to anticipate a subject’s next move, makes him a sought-after guide and promises those who go on safari with him a unique and memorable experience.

His images have graced the covers of Africa Geographic and US National Geographic Kids. He is also a regular contributor to African Birdlife and Africa Geographic magazines.

Grant leads safaris in Botswana, Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa, as well as other destinations further afield.

WHY BOOK WITH BIGGESTLEAF TRAVEL

  • We Sell What We Love: We are genuinely passionate about African travel and safaris. Every itinerary we design is shaped by first-hand knowledge, personal experience and a deep respect for the destinations we represent. It is company policy that our consultants experience the destinations and lodges they sell, giving them practical insight into the areas, logistics and overall journey.

  • Your Financial Security Comes First: We mitigate financial risk by being accredited members of ASATA, SATSA and ATTA, ensuring your funds are handled responsibly and in line with industry best practice. You book with confidence, knowing your investment is protected. For more detail, please visit our Why Book With Us page.

  • Transparent, Independent Reviews: Our reputation is verified through open, independent reviews on Trustpilot, Google and TripAdvisor — real feedback from real travellers, with nothing hidden. Please visit our Reviews page for more information.

  • Tailor-Made – Not Template – Trips: No two travellers are the same. Every journey we create is fully personalised and customised, designed around your interests, pace and expectations. This may take longer to organise but it means our clients get an unforgettable experience.

  • Established, Stable & Experienced: Founded in 2014, we are proud that we still have our first consultants working with us today. This continuity reflects the strength of our team culture, depth of experience and the long-term relationships we build with our staff, clients and safari partners.

  • Responsible Travel & Carbon Offsetting: We believe in protecting Africa’s wild places for generations to come. As part of our commitment to responsible travel, we offset our travellers’ carbon footprint through bed-night calculations, and fully offset all kilometres driven by our vehicles through verified carbon credits. Every journey therefore contributes to conservation, climate responsibility and the long-term sustainability of the destinations we love. Visit our Sustainable Travel page for more information.
