Luxury Safaris

Luxury means something different to everyone, but it always includes special experiences and being well taken care of.

Let us know what is important to you, and we can design the perfect honeymoon, anniversary or celebratory safari.

  • See the Big Five while indulging in fine dining and world-class wines inspired by a fascinating blend of cultures in South Africa

  • Enjoy spectacular tented camps in Kenya or Tanzania and scuba dive off the exotic beaches of Zanzibar or Pemba Island

  • Explore Botswana’s Okavango Delta by boat and commune with meerkats in the Makgadikgadi Pans of the Kalahari

  • Bask in the romance of Victoria Falls or the lush Zambezi Valley in Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools

  • Watch the sunrise on a scenic helicopter flight or hot-air ballooning with a champagne brunch

  • Get off the beaten track and enjoy quiet fireside dining under the African stars in Zambia

  • Experience a spectacular flying safari in Namibia and marvel at the majestic Sossusvlei dunes

Overland vs. Fly-in Safaris

With a few exceptions, most of our trips in Southern Africa (South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia and/or Zimbabwe) are flying safaris where the various destinations are linked by either scheduled commercial flights or light aircraft transfers.

In East Africa (Kenya Tanzania), we offer flying safaris using scheduled domestic flights or charters as necessary, or overland safaris with transportation in a private 4×4 safari vehicle driven by a naturalist guide.

For overland safaris in Kenya and Tanzania, our trusted local partner African Horizons maintains a fleet of custom-designed Land-Cruisers, each of which has been specially adapted to meet the demands of the rugged African terrain and modern convenience. These vehicles offer the following:

  • Comfortable twin seating

  • Sliding windows and roof hatches for optimum panoramic vision

  • 12V cigarette lighters, which are ideal for charging batteries

  • HF or VHF radio connections

  • Cooler boxes

  • First-aid Kit

The great advantage of driving is that you see the extraordinary scenery while catching a glimpse into the everyday life of the countryside. Flying over the dramatic landscapes of Africa, however, remains the most efficient way to get from place to place if you’re pressed for time.
