Expert Travel Advice

Our expertise in African travel comes from years of experience travelling the continent, canoeing the rivers, walking the bush trails, and seeing the stars. We’ve been on the game drives and watched the sunsets, spent nights wrapped up in remote areas, and eaten great food around the fire. Our recommendations come first-hand, and they are your assurance that a safari booked with us is one we know you’ll love, because we did.

Price Guarantee

We know a safari can be pricey, but we guarantee that we’re giving you the best deal on your travel. We don’t want your trip to Africa to be a once in a lifetime experience, we want you to do it again, and again! Through nurtured relationships with our suppliers, we can offer you the best deal they’ve got, and you’ll never pay more than you should for your accommodation. If you find the same holiday for less, we’ll confidently better the price.
