Horst Bachmann
Horst has spent half his life in Africa and knows the most beautiful landscapes between Nairobi and Cape Town. Before settling down with his family in Tanzania he regularly guided safari guests through the magnificent national parks.
As the family grew, he took over AFRICAN VIEWS’s first lodge with his Zimbabwean wife, Debbie, in 2006. More properties were to follow. Horst‘s preferred mode of travel is a fly-in safari over the varied terrain of the Rift Valley to the vast savannah of the Serengeti, preferably in his own microlight aircraft.
