Highlights


  • 3 iconic destinations in one safari – providing access to vastly different landscapes and ecosystems

  • Astonishing wildlife diversity – In addition to the Big 5 (rhino, lion, leopard, elephant and buffalo), other iconic species to look out for include cheetah, wild dog, hyena, and so much more. For those travelling from August to October, there is the added attraction of dramatic scenes as the huge herds of wildebeests and zebras cross the Mara River - despite the considerable risk of drowning and crocodile attacks.

  • Bush and beach – nothing is quite as satisfying after a safari as feeling the sand between your toes, warm ocean water and a hammock in a cool breeze.

  • Stone Town – the cultural heart of Zanzibar - features narrow, winding, cobbled streets and historical architecture. Wandering through its bustling bazaars, study the intricate doorways, visit historic sites, and sample local cuisine.

African safari

Why choose us to craft your safari?

Handcrafted experiential safaris since 1991.

Travel in Africa is about knowing when and where to go, and with whom. A few weeks too early/late or a few kilometres off course, and you could miss the greatest show on Earth. And wouldn’t that be a pity?
