“The only man I envy is the man who has not yet been to Africa for he has so much to look forward to“ – Richard Mullin
The team at Starry Starry Nights is made up of dedicated professionals who share a love for wildlife, conservation, and unforgettable travel experiences. Each team member brings unique expertise and a personal commitment to making every safari extraordinary.
Conrad was born in Johannesburg South Africa. He has always had a passion for all things biological and the outdoors; with the family moving the Kwa-Zulu-Natal Battlefields, he soon realized that there was much to be learned from a natural history of the Biggars – and Drakensberg mountain ranges. After matriculation, Conrad studied a postgraduate degree in Zoology on marine intertidal invertebrate ecology at the University of KwaZulu-Natal in Pietermaritzburg. However, scientific methodology was not to tie him down and he joined Wilderness Safaris is 1994 and was sent to all manner of southern African countries to start up lodges and run operations and safaris.
He has spent the last 30 years leading expeditions and safaris over the entire African continent, to all ends and still to this day recommends at least one month annually in that great continent, the continent where we all evolved from – Africa. He has also contributed and led polar expeditions to both ends of the planet for the last 18 years for various expedition cruise companies. Over the years Conrad also explored much of the Indian Ocean, both above and below the waters and has been privileged to have visited some of the world’s most remote atolls and islands.
He has his own specialist safari company, Starry Starry Nights, in Johannesburg, where all the nature stuff started…
I know it sounds cliche, but there is just nothing like being on safari. An African safari is one of the most unique vacations one can have and my passion is to share this with you and make your safari dream come true.

I have been in the travel industry for more than 30 years and still love what I do every day.
“I’ve had two life changing experiences. Hiking and spending time with the Gorillas in Rwanda and my very first Pangolin sighting in Botswana. Getting our guests to share these same experiences has become my obsession.”

🦎 Welcome to the wild heart of Madagascar
From wide-eyed lemurs to camouflaged geckos, every step through this island reveals another world. These rare and often endangered species are just a glimpse of the biodiversity that makes Madagascar unlike anywhere else on Earth.
🌴 Outrigger sails still glide across the turquoise waters
🦉 Lemurs peer from the forest with curiosity
🦎 Reptiles vanish into bark and leaves
With Starry Starry Nights, you’re not just observing nature – you’re immersed in it.
This is nature as you’ve never seen it. And it’s only found here.

A spectacular start to any safari is to do Cape Town first.
Probably one of the most incredible cities in the world.
Amazing people, food and wines almost in their own categories.
So much to experience on every level.

Svalbard: A Place Called Stillness
Arctic wind moves across ice that’s been here for ages.
Light lingers longer. Sound disappears.
Longyearbyen rests between frozen peaks and polar silence – a northern threshold few ever cross.
There are no roads beyond. Only sea, ice, and sky.

Svalbard: Where Silence Begins
At 78° North, the world opens in white.
Longyearbyen lies still beneath the Arctic air – a gateway to something ancient and endless.
We touched down, following the ice and sky to meet our vessel – the Ocean Explorer.
Quiet. Purposeful. Ready.

The African Wild Dog is one of Africa’s most endangered species and, as the Latin translation “Painted Wolf” suggests, one of the most beautiful to roam our land. Tintswalo Lapalala, in partnership with the Lapalala Wilderness Reserve, is intent on investing in the protection of these beautiful canines, with the introduction of the wild dog tagging program.
The wild dog pack that calls Lapalala its home is unique in that this is the last free-roaming pack in South Africa, having no fences to confine the dogs’ movements. The Lapalala pack has been known to roam as far north as Botswana, and so monitoring their movements through the farmlands, and working with the farmers, is of paramount importance to ensuring their safety.
