Authentic adventures. No Tour Bus Allowed.

Welcome to the home of authentic wildlife travel guides for the renegade explorer. I spend my life planning and documenting real wildlife encounters, from budget whale shark trips in the Maldives to tracking rare birds in Central America. If you hate crowded tourist shuttles and want to plan a true, responsible, and budget-friendly adventure, you’re in the right place.

Below you’ll find a selection of my best guides for those who want to experience the world’s natural beauty—WITHOUT THE TOUR BUS!
