Our Story
We started Boone Safaris to share our love of Africa with our friends (current and those we've yet to meet). We've been married 34 years and recently moved to the mountains near Boone, North Carolina. We have three adult children who are living in Japan, California, and North Carolina. Paula is an educator and Boone left his job as owner of an executive search firm to be a full time safari guide and wildlife photographer. We love exploring new places and drinking good wine with friends. Boone is an internationally acclaimed wildlife photographer and is a certified African wildlife field guide.
