All Out Safaris Podcast

There is just something different about a leopard sighting.In this episode, we unpack why leopards are hands down our favourite animal to see on safari and why they never lose their magic, no matter how many times you have seen one.From their elusive nature and unmatched stealth to the heart racing build up of tracking them, leopards turn every sighting into a moment you will never forget. We talk about what makes them so special compared to the rest of the Big Five, why they are a photographer’s dream, and the emotional rush that comes with finally locking eyes with one in the wild.We also share personal stories from guiding and hosting safaris across South Africa, including the close calls, the golden light moments, and the sightings that still give us goosebumps.If you have ever felt your pulse spike when someone whispers, “There is a leopard here,” this episode is for you.Tune in as we talk about Africa’s most iconic ghost.
