It would be more profitable to fill a twenty-seat bus. We do not, and here is why.
A vehicle with eight guests stops when somebody spots something. A vehicle with twenty follows a schedule. In the forest, a small group moves quietly and keeps together. At a gorilla briefing, six people hear the ranger; twenty do not.
There is a second reason: our guides get to know you. By day three Moses knows who wants coffee at 5am and who would rather sleep, who is nervous about the trek and who has been waiting eleven months for it. That is the difference between a good safari and a great one.
