Guide: Trevor McCall-Peat

Trevor’s knowledge of photography was matched in equal measures with his love for and knowledge of the bush. And he shared both in bucketloads. Out in the field he was always helpful with everything from camera settings, composition, remembering SD cards before leaving camp to ensuring we were always well hydrated and fed. His absolute adoration and respect for and knowledge of the wildlife (the guy will go to the ends of the earth for a leopard sighting, and for that I am forever grateful!), knowing when to wait and when to move on for the next sighting made every sighting special beyond words.

We met Trevor at Nkurru in October 2019; from the moment we met him we knew we were in good hands. He was a very patient teacher, explaining settings clearly and ensuring we all captured the best possible photos at the many sightings we had. Trevor is also an excellent host, his tales as we sat at the waterhole in the evenings were very entertaining! I learnt so much during our time with him at Nkurru, but we also had great fun too, enjoying the sights and sounds of the African bush. Thanks again Trev!

As a guide, Trevor could not have been a better host. He made everyone feel welcome from the start with his warm yet humorous approach. He offered lots of photographic guidance throughout the safari, catering to the experienced photographers in our group as well as to me, the newbie. And having had previous guiding experience, he was also a wealth of knowledge about all things nature and wildlife. I truly could not have hoped for a better experience.

As a keen photographer I wanted a wildlife Safari that was focused around photography with a guide who was a wildlife photographer that could teach me some new tricks. Trevor McCall-Peat our wild eye guide delivered 10 fold on our expectations.
