Why join the Herd?

From its creation, it was always determined that Yellow Zebra would aim to be one of the best safari companies in the industry. Having only just approached its 10-year anniversary, YZ has already been recognised as Europe’s Leading Safari Tour Operator at the World Travel Awards for eight years in a row.

The key to our success is our staff. Our sales approach is unlike that of many other companies, as our team is encouraged to design safaris that they would go on themselves, rather than put together trips that provide the biggest commissions. What is more, all of our safari consultants are also professional safari guides, camp managers, and/or people who were born and raised in Africa.

YZ offers a fantastic working environment in an open-plan office in the heart of Kingston upon Thames, with views over the market square. It’s just 20 minutes by train from London Waterloo.

There’s music, staff parties, and monthly social events, and everyone can take part as much or as little as suits them.

The Summer party in 2022 saw the entire team sail across the Thames to celebrate YZ's 10-year anniversary!
