Per Holmen is a Norwegian citizen, living in Usa River, near Arusha, Tanzania. He has travelled extensively in East Africa looking for birds. His East Africa list now stands at 1146 birds where 1101 have been photographed. For Tanzania: 896 seen, 850 Photographed. He lived in South Africa From 1997 to 2012 and have a bird list of 839 species from Southern Africa He has a beautiful house on kiligolf.com where he can accommodate birders. He is dedicated to give visiting friends the best birding experience. Per do birding trips in Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda/Rwanda (see section “Our trips” for more details) Per have a Toyota Landcruiser with a Popup roof for long trips and a Land Rover Defender 6 seater with a pop up roof, mainly used for day trips from his house.. Many of the roads we travel are extremely bad and only a normal a good 4X4 can handle those roads. Please be aware that this is Africa (TIA). There will be dust, bumpy roads etc. My trips are not for novice birders. I will always send a list of potential birds we can get on our trips and I expect that my friends coming here can tell the difference between a Schalow´s Turaco and a House Sparrow. Some of my friends have never been to Africa, which is fine, but please study up on my list and know what to expect. If I catch you taking pictures of a Dark-backed Bulbul again and again, I will not be happy. For those that take pictures: Know your camera and practice with it before you come. I only know Nikon and can not help with Canon or Sony cameras. In other words, be prepared. Most trips are booked 6 months ahead, so there is no excuse to not be prepared
