Safari holidays

Indulge in the ultimate wildlife adventure of a lifetime. Being on safari is a sensory overload; seeing the magical landscapes, witnessing the awe-inspiring animals in their natural habitats, the sun and heat relaxing your body and the smells of trees and open air. The experience is unforgettable and mesmerising.

Visitors enjoy an average length of 2-4 days on safari. The best time to view wild animals and when they are most active is at dawn and dusk, so expect early starts and late finishes. In-between relax at your luxury lodge where you can reflect on what you have seen earlier in the day and prepare for your next safari in the afternoon. Some lodges are located near natural watering holes, so you can relax with a cool drink and watch the majestic animals.

The accommodation available on safari is outstanding. Choose from luxury British camps, safari lodges or private safari houses and villas. Consider taking full advantage and experience a combination of these throughout your safari stay to give you the full authentic feel. Regardless of they accommodation style you choose, uncompromisingly you will receive attentive and impeccable service from the rangers looking after you.
