The Son

Alfie Bourne

Taking on his first major expedition alongside his dad. Alfie was six when Nick first rode through Kenya with Kinjah, and he's been hearing about the Simbaz ever since. Now he wants to see the country for himself and help the next generation along the way — and to meet and ride with Kinjah's son Buji, who is the same age.
