Welcome to Wildlifecourses.co.uk

Are you interested in learning about African Wildlife?

Want to do the same training as a Safari Guide would complete?

Then this is the place for you!!

Here you will find more information about Wildlife training, free lessons, various courses and lots of facts about African animals.

So what is a Safari Guide?
A Safari Guide is often incorrectly called a Game Ranger. A Game Ranger is someone who looks after the animals and environment of an area and Field Guide is someone who guides people in a natural environment. A field guide will guide people either in a vehicle, on foot or horseback.

What will I learn on a course?
Loads! The one month course will teach you everything from how to track animals, ecology, animal behaviour, shooting, and lots more.
Obviously depending on which course you attend will determine how intensive each subject is.
To see some example lessons then click on the ‘Example Lessons’ page.

If I qualify, will I get a job in Africa?
Not necessarily. Guiding in Africa is very competitive and an international person would struggle to prove themselves and also get the working visas. Getting a visa for South Africa would be very difficult, but it may be easier in other African countries such as Tanzania, Kenya, etc.

Can I do one of the courses if I have no intentions of becoming a professional guide?
Absolutely! These courses will not only give you a lot more knowledge about the African wildlife, but will also give you a life experience you will never forget and will tell the grandchildren about! If you really want to see African Wildlife, get stunning photos, see the animals in a way that tourists never experience.

Anywhere Else to Look?
