Most travellers are really keen to experience a luxury Africa safari – at least once! Depending upon one’s finances (as safaris are never cheap – they tend to start around £6000.00 per person or $8500.00 per person excluding international flights and can happily cost twice as much). Having said that, they are worth every penny – being one of the most amazing holidays you will ever encounter in a lifetime!

Whether its lazing idly in a hammock overlooking a pristine and beautiful stretch of beach, to having a luxury mobile tented camp set up for you, complete with candelabra and amazing cuisine (a private guide and a stunning location are a given!), to staying in a design inspired lodge with wildlife all around you – to perhaps going on a riding safari amongst the migration of the Masai Mara, or a canoe safari up the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe or a walking safari in the Selous in Tanzania or south Luangwa in Zambia, or having a private flying safari across the Skeleton Coast in Namibia, riding on the back of an elephant in the Okavango Delta in Botswana, or flying 4.5 hours to reach a fly camp so deserted that its just you and your staff and a bedroll in a tent where you can see the stars in a park as you watch the birds all come in to roost – this for me, is luxury on many levels!

An Africa Safari is about the most amazing holiday that anyone could ever imagine. Think of outdoors, spending time watching fantastic wildlife, walking, learning about trees and plants and generally feeling more in touch with oneself and alive!

It might be better to watch this video to see exactly what I mean!

What is a Luxury African Safari? It is many different things to many people! Perhaps this clip defines it in more detail!

Luxury Safaris in Africa are our forte. Whether you would like the very best in luxury in terms of having private aeroplanes and the finest guides that the countries can produce at your fingertips, camps set up for you in the best wildlife locations or whether you want a film maker to improve your photography, perhaps you might like to spend time with an ornithologist or simply an all round naturalist guide, or even would like to see a particular species – such as a wild dog or a shoebill stork, we can achieve this for you! We have set up camps where the wild dogs are denning and where the shoebill stork is nesting – something that only sheer expertise and a lifetime spent on the African continent can allow us to do.

For those starting out on their first safaris, we guide you closely and help you to make the right decision for you or your family.  Whether it is a private villa in the bush or on the coast for a family or group of friends, or a simple tented camp erected just for you where no other camp exists – where you watch the birds come to rest in the boughs of the trees – knowing it is just yourselves, your guide and crew and the birdlife – surely this must be the most blissful thing?  Or hot air ballooning across the world’s highest sand dunes, watching each of them change hue. Perhaps spend time with lion or elephant or wild dog researchers – nothing is beyond our remit.  You might even have dreamt of riding an elephant through the jewel of the Okavango Delta, observing the whole herd playing and interacting – a priceless experience! You have purely our passion and our expertise – and we look forward to arranging your safari of a lifetime!

The next difficult question would be – which country?  Well, for first time safari goers, little equals East Africa with its large, infinite savannah plains and concentrations of wildlife, to the delights of Zambia which is uncommercial, beautiful and plentiful of wildlife and probably the finest country for walking safaris, to Botswana, Mozambique, Malawi, Namibia, Uganda, Rwanda, Madagascar and South Africa. Each country has its own special and unique factors – and we are here to assist you with our wide choice of luxury safaris, all tailored to you by our African experts from Africa!

Luxury Safari in Africa- There can be few dreams realised like a luxury safari in Africa. This, surely, must be the ultimate holiday that anybody could ever dream of going on!

Luxury comes in many guises and as the famous HSBC advert that one sees plastered all over airport walls in Africa and Europe alike, aludes to, is that each person’s idea of heaven and hell come in equal quantities and have different meanings!

Beho Beho with AfricanExplorations.com

For some, an idea of heaven, is having the most amazing wildlife viewing perhaps in the Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania and then returning to a hugely luxurious lodge, where fresh roses are flown in daily to be placed next to your bath, which has views over the Crater floor, a chandelier above your head and a butler who waits upon you, even filling your bath so you can simply step into it when returning from your safari.

For others, it is having a private camp erected just for the two of you, or perhaps even your family in the middle of the Serengeti or the Masai Mara, during the wildebeest migration, with millions of animals around you. Or going one step further, perhaps in the Katavi National Park, where you have a flycamp erected for just the two of you and your guide and staff, sleeping beneath the stars at night and showering beneath the southern cross!

Again, for others, it might well be having a truly sensational private guide to accompany you throughout your safari, explaining every detail to you and perhaps even be flying you in their own private aircraft, which means that no time is wasted and you can do some wonderful game spotting on a low level flight!

Perhaps it is taking a hot air balloon across the Namib Desert at first light, watching the colours change hue before you, the silence simply deafening! Or even taking a flying safari up the Skeleton Coast in Namibia which is about the best thing you can ever do in this country!

Chada Camp with AfricanExplorations.com

For others again, perhaps in Kenya, to have your own private villa in Laikipia and finish off with a private villa in Lamu. Or take Prince William’s route, of staying at a rustic log cabin at the foothills of Mount Kenya, accessible only by helicopter.

Travel on horseback through the Okavango Delta, or even on an  elephant back safari in Botswana. Whatever your idea of luxury is, we have the expertise and the passion to fulfil your dreams!
