Specialists in Exceptional Travel...

A VISIT TO AFRICA ISN'T A HOLIDAY; IT’S AN EXPERIENCE UNLIKE ANY OTHER.

Africa touches your soul, it gets under your skin and paves the way for future adventures.

LUXURY MEANS DIFFERENT THINGS TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE.

For some, it’s all about the finishing touches, others measure luxury in experiences: a night in the desert beneath a thousand stars; watching wildlife at a waterhole - metres from your room.

We offer the best of both worlds. So whether you’re looking for full-blown fabulousness or a raw African wilderness, you’ve come to the right place.

When we choose the properties for our itineraries, we look for that extra something, be it world-class guides, utter isolation, humbling views or a fascinating story.

Africa is a huge continent and, in our experience, everyone who visits is looking for something a little different. We specialise in finding out what makes you tick and use our knowledge to come up with a holiday that delivers – and maybe throws in a few surprises, too.

We’ve been crafting tailored itineraries for our clients for many years now, planning travel experiences that bring your African dream to life.

IT’S A FAMILY AFFAIR

Africa is the kind of destination that brings families together. And with careful planning we’ll find you somewhere that will please everyone – from octogenarians to toddlers and tricky teenagers.

For the multi-generational family who want to stay together, there are a range of safari and beach houses available for exclusive use.

ARRIVE IN COMFORT & STYLE

An overnight flight, a premium cabin flat bed and no jet lag to speak of - your holiday can start as soon as you land. Want to avoid time waiting in airports? Sometimes it makes sense to book a private flight and fly when it suits you.

GO BIGGER WITH YOUR BUCKET LIST

If an hour’s Gorilla trekking is not enough, we can arrange for you to join researchers on a gorilla habituation project where you spend up to four unforgettable hours observing the primates.

THE ROUTE LESS TRAVELLED

If you’re going to Cape Town, you probably want to see the penguins, but could do without the crowds. How does sea kayaking with the penguins sound instead? Or embarking on a penguin walk with a local researcher? We have insider info on some of the most popular hotspots.

HEAVEN ON A PLATE

A gourmet picnic on a secluded beach. A wine safari with food pairings. Food and drink can make or break a holiday, that’s why we work hard to secure tables at top restaurants and off-the-beaten-track gems.

SET YOUR PULSE RACING

If you’re going to take a surf lesson, make it with a South African surf champion. Don’t just hike Table Mountain, take a yoga class at the summit, then abseil down. If you’re feeling adventurous we can make it happen, whether you’re mountain biking or dune driving on a fat bike or in a state-of-the-art Land Rover.
