Imogen Taylor works both behind the desk and out in the field. As Director of Wildlife Experiences, she oversees itinerary logistics and behind-the-scenes operations, while also leading and guiding private wildlife safaris and select small-group tours. Having spent years assisting Suzi in leading tours, Imogen is experienced in guiding groups and knowing exactly what wildlife photographers need.
Imogen is also a professional wildlife illustrator, children’s author, and manages the educational outreach program for a small Australian wildlife charity she co-founded — regularly visiting schools to deliver interactive workshops that explore the environmental themes behind her stories.

We donate a portion of all custom safari proceeds to the Wildlife Conservation Network (WCN), a nonprofit that brings together conservationists and supporters to advance solutions for wildlife and people to coexist and thrive.
By having Suzi Eszterhas Tours build you a custom wildlife safari, you are directly supporting the conservation of the wildlife you encounter.
WCN partners with carefully vetted, community-based conservation groups around the world – providing financial support, training, and logistical help so they can focus on saving wildlife and improving coexistence between communities and nature.
WCN helps protect a wide variety of species, restores and safeguards habitats, supports coexistence between wildlife and people (by reducing human-wildlife conflict, promoting sustainable land use, and supporting wildlife-friendly livelihoods), and strengthens conservation capacity among local communities.
In addition, WCN invests in the next generation of conservation leaders via scholarship and career-support programs – helping build sustainable, long-term conservation efforts within local populations.
WCN enables small but high-impact field conservation projects to scale up, contributing substantially to species protection, habitat preservation, and global biodiversity efforts.
*Many of our scheduled group safaris also help fund conservation. Past supported organizations include WCN Partners such as Cheetah Conservation Fund and Painted Dog Conservation, as well as the Sloth Conservation Foundation, Orangutan Foundation International, and others.
