A luxury safari means different things to different people. For some, the height of luxury is returning from a game drive in the Ngorongoro Crater, having seen some of the greatest concentration of wildlife in Africa and returning to the lodge at dusk, to find your bath already run, your dressing gown lain across the chair and fresh roses next to your bath as you look out over the Crater floor. For others, it is flying 4 hours to get to a remote location where you will find a tented camp in a beautiful, wildlife filled area all to yourself and for others who like to push the boundary further still, would be to then fly camp under the stars in the national park, where there are no other people, no other vehicles, wonderful wildlife and you sleep in your bedroll and gauze tent so that you can see the stars above you. You are served a delectable meal beneath the stars, complete with a good bottle of wine and you sleep more soundly than you have ever done so before, absolutely content.

Whether it is going on the only dedicated elephant back safari in the Okavango Delta, where you spend time as part of a herd, observing their behaviour, or horse riding through the Kalahari Desert or the Masai Mara amongst the wildebeest migration (Africa’s greatest spectacle), or searching for lemurs with a specialist guide in Madagascar, culminating with taking a fully staffed catamaran around the islands, fishing and snorkelling en route.

African Safari Luxury. These are three words that are very easy to achieve these days! Most of the countries in sub-Saharan Africa from Kenya and Tanzania and Uganda and Rwanda right down through to South Africa offer luxurious retreats to stay in, whilst on safari.

Luxury can mean different things to different people – from having an entire area to oneself and not seeing another vehicle or tourist – to having an endless supply of hot water and cold gin and tonics or wine on a private, tented mobile safari just for your party, to a more ersatz luxury lodge which offers spa facilities and huge villas with copper baths from where one can look out and see wildlife.

The next thing to think about is where you want to be on safari in Africa? For pristine Africa with no other vehicles, think of private concessions in Botswana and regions of Zambia and Zimbabwe and southern Tanzania. For the greatest amount of wildlife, then Kenya and Tanzania offer you the best experiences, especially if you want to combine your game viewing with culture. If you would like to add in walking, trekking, climbing, horse riding, walking with camels or mules, photography, private guides, flying safaris, geology, fishing, deserts -as well as beaches or boats – we can add this all in for you!

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.

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 African Safaris – These are the sort of safaris that we arrange extremely well. But what is the definition of luxury? Well, to some, it is to have a large tented camp, with en suite bathroom facilities, complete with hot water from a bucket shower beneath the stars. To others, it is enjoying a chilled glass of wine for sundowners, whilst looking out over a lake filled with hippos cavorting and grunting.

To others, it is the more definite sense of the word, staying in a design inspired lodge with the finest Frette linen, perhaps a private plunge pool, on call butler service so that when you return from a game drive, your steaming bath already awaits you. For others still, it is not being blighted by other people and therefore having your own private air charter to whisk you to each place, your own private 4 x 4 vehicle and specialist guide. Definitely having a pristine game viewing experience all to yourself must also be categorised as luxury!
