Wild Eye South Africa
Based at the Design Quarter in Fourways (Johannesburg, South Africa) our team is dedicated to changing the way you see the world!
The Wild Eye team has grown dramatically since it was founded a decade ago. Based in our office space in Design Quarter Johannesburg, our dynamic team is made up of a mix of experienced guides, a full time logistics and safari operations team, finance department as well as a content creation and marketing.
Our recording and broadcasting studio provides the ideal location for our team to assist our guests through online webinars, podcasts, private tuition as well as creating many of the free tutorials and educational content which we share.
