Alex is an archaeologist and safari guide specializing in leading safaris that help guests reconnect with their human origins. Though he’s from California, his love of Africa began as a small child in the many books and movies that both captivated his imagination and sense of adventure. The son of two teachers, Alex first found a love of guiding at the California State Parks before journeying to Africa and pursuing a life in the safari industry. Driven by a desire for a deeper understanding of humanity, Alex’s passion is chasing the question “Are humans wild animals?” His work seeks to better understand the roots of what makes us human. There's no "off switch" on Alex— his life, profession, and personal passions are all deeply intertwined. Alex is a total sucker for elephants.

I have spent more than a decade working hands on with animals and wildlife. Educating people about the amazing biodiversity our planet has to offer is my life's passion. After first visiting the country of South Africa I have found myself deeply enthralled in an ever growing passion for all things Africa. Now I am looking forward to helping you experience this amazing place and see the world as it should be seen!

Having the good fortune to see our planet has inspired me to share adventure with others.  My favorite spots include Africa, New Zealand, Patagonia and the Inca trail.  Let’s have a video chat and see what we can do to make your adventure vision become real. Reach out. Let’s GO!
