Luxury African Safari

A luxury African safari can mean many different things to many different people! To some, it will mean be hundreds of miles away from any other tourist – having a private camp set up just for you – with all the comforts of a hot shower, a wonderfully cooked meal and the myriad of stars above you. Add to this your private guide who shares anecdotes and knowledge and makes your safari – and your private vehicle or perhaps you may be on a walking or canoeing safari or even a riding safari. To others, it may mean a private luxury house or villa in the bush, with your own butler, again your own private guide and vehicle but with exquisite, design inspired surroundings. The scenery and the wildlife will of course, be extraordinary and when one has an amazing guide, each day is so exciting and filled with new information, sights and sounds.

Luxury African Safari

If somebody had to ask what I considered to be the ultimate luxury african safari – I would probably have to say that it would either be in Botswana or in Kenya. If it was Botswana, then it would mean staying at the most beautiful tented camp on this earth, in the Kalahari desert, where one can explore the desert with an amazing guide, seeing desert dwelling species and habituated meerkat. You could learn about the bushmen or san people and go out with them for a walk, hearing about how they forage for plants and learning about their culture. The camp is white and bedouin in style, with persian rugs and the view looks out over a white, shimmering salt pan. The views are simply staggering. Then, I would go to the most beautiful lodge where I could take an elephant back safari for three days. You overnight at this beautiful lodge in the heart of the Okavango delta,and the days are spent walking and game viewing on the back of an elephant – simply magical and probably the most humbling thing you can do! Stay at a magnificent lodge in the Moremi which is renowned for its fabulous wildlife, or travel further north to Chobe to do the same thing. End off at Victoria Falls – which is a truly special and fitting ending! We can also arrange a luxury private mobile tented camp for you in Botswana, complete with superb food, amazing guides, candelabra and persian rugs!

In Kenya, you could start off by travelling to a region which is renowned for having probably the best population of rhino. You can game view by vehicle, on foot and also by horseback! Or – you can start off at the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro at the most extraordinary lodge where each villa has its own private deck where one can sleep beneath the stars for a night in complete privacy and there is horse riding here too as well as having a wonderful population of elephant. Then travel to the Masai Mara where you can stay in a beautiful tented camp or luxury lodge, with your own private vehicle and guide – amongst the wildebeest migration and then perhaps finishing off on the coast – at a private villa, complete with its own skipper and boat. Whatever your idea of a luxury african safari is, let us know and we will exceed your expectations – with a team of specialists from Africa and 25 years of arranging tailor made safaris – we will turn your dream into a reality!

Luxury African Safari Tours

Africa really does lend itself to luxury safaris! With so many very beautiful camps and lodges dotted around the continent, there is something for everyone! Although most people tend to want to experience Africa on a private basis – with a private guide and vehicle, which allows you complete flexibility and freedom – there are some dedicated tours which make sense for single travellers. Luxury African Safari tours tend to be in Kenya, although for those not too concerned about the luxury element, we can also offer wonderful tours to Namibia and Botswana too!

Best Luxury African Safari

Its hard to say exactly what the best luxury African safari would be – but perhaps it would be in Kenya – where you would fly into the country and have a private camp set up for you, in a  supreme  wildlife area with your own private vehicles and guide amongst the finest wildlife. You will have a private house to start off your safari with, complete with two private aircraft and a helicopter at your disposal, so you can also visit Lake Turkana or even go fly fishing. You could then possibly take a private villa or two on the beach.

Africa Safari Holidays

Africa Safari Holidays are the very best kind of holiday in my opinion! What other holiday can offer you such diversity of activity? Africa offers the perfect holiday for a family or a couple (or indeed single traveller!) alike! From climbing mountains such as Kenya, Meru and Kilimanjaro, to game viewing in open vehicles, seeing the finest concentration of animals – such as the wildebeest migration in the Serengeti in Tanzania and the Masai Mara in Kenya – to walking safaris in the south Luangwa in Zambia. Perhaps canoeing takes your fancy along the Zambezi in Zimbabwe, or an elephant back safari in the Okavango Delta in Botswana? Perhaps a riding safari across the Kalahari Desert and the Okavango Delta in Botswana, or a combination of things, such as wine tasting in the Cape and seeing wildlife in the Kruger Park in South Africa.
