For four decades we designed trips that provide maximum time in the field to experience and photograph nature and to inspire travelers with the values of conservation and education. Cheesemans' Ecology Safaris grew out of Doug, Gail, and Ted Cheeseman's passion for exploring, protecting, and learning about the incredible wildlife and environments found around the world. To spread this contagious passion wide, we lead unsurpassed tours with the goal of providing a higher standard of wildlife travel under the guidance and knowledge of the best leaders available.
