A herping expedition in South Africa was a great value, with a comfortable SUV and equipped trailer. Led by Mathieu, the small crew found 29 snake species and met with local rescuers for additional photography. Other wildlife and ecological niches were explored. Highly recommended for those seeking a tailored wildlife experience in South Africa. The author reflects on how this trip became his last adventure before the world changed.

Amazing tour, a great experience. discovering the herps of South Africa. I chose the 1 day option and was amazing, looking for cobras and other snakes near Cape Town. A great deal and great professional.

Mathieu and the Living Zoology crew visited Durban in January 2019 to film Black Mambas. On their first day, they went on five mamba calls and caught three, which was a great success. Mathieu, an experienced handler, did the wrangling for the cameraman and camerawoman. An amazing day for all involved.

I joined Matt Van G and fellow Herper Alex on a unique, amazing, and fun 5-day herping expedition in Northern Cape. Despite being out of my comfort zone, Matt and Alex made me feel part of the team and helped me overcome my fear of snakes. From night drives to gecko chasing, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommended for nature lovers seeking mad amounts of knowledge. Thanks again Matt and Alex.

MatVanGeo's was just the sort of expedition that I was after – uniquely put together with true elements of adventure and challenge. The organisation before and during the expedition left you free to enjoy everything on offer.

Matt helped achieve specific target species during a one-month herping trip in South Africa. He drove about 8000 km, organized meetings with amazing people like snake catchers, and even assisted with filming and snake handling. He has a positive attitude to most things around him and is an enjoyable person to work with. Highly recommended for those seeking to achieve their herping goals in South Africa.
