Description

The History of Red Rhino

As the founder and owner of Red Rhino Tours, I would like to thank you for making it to this page and considering traveling to Africa with Red Rhino. We will make sure your experience in Africa is everything you have always dreamed it would be.

Speaking of dreams, when I set out on my own to travel across Africa in 1993 with only a day pack, I had no idea it would lead to what is now Red Rhino Tours. Such is the serendipity of travel. I traveled solo -- hitchhiking, walking, and canoeing across the continent for several months. The richness of my experience, the incredible warmth and generosity of the people, the thousands of animals I witnessed in their natural environment, and the awesome reality of being in the land known as the "cradle of humanity," was a life-changing experience indeed and a source of great inspiration for my life. Out of this adventure the concept of Red Rhino Tours was born. I know that if you travel to Africa it will add richness and depth to your own life and give you renewed perspective and inspiration.

Over a period of eight months, I traveled through Zimbabwe, Botswana, Zambia, Mozambique, Malawi, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo), Central African Republic, and Cameroon. The main goal of my adventure was to cross the continent of Africa from east to west--from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic-- through the rainforest wilderness of the Congo. By the end of my trip across the Congo Basin I had lost 50 pounds, got malaria, never met or saw another traveler, slept in remote villages, and had the greatest adventure of my life.
