  • Experience a unique combination of adventure, relaxation, exceptional service and culinary delights amid the African wilderness

    Karen Blixen Camp, Masai Mara

    from $1,895*

    Karen Blixen Camp is an eco-friendly luxury camp, that creates a sense of the real bygone explorer days when the savannah was seldom visited and elaborate, comfortable camps were set up providing a luxurious retreat after each day's adventure. The camp comprises 22 large luxury canvas tents each situated with undisturbed views along the Mara River.

    The stylish restaurant, reception, lounge, bar area and gift shop with internet, are set on a raised wooden deck and furnished with accurate reproductions of Karen Blixen's private furniture creating an elegant relaxed atmosphere.

    The refreshing swimming pool surrounded by well-kept gardens offers relaxation and even a little exercise in-between game drives. Our resident masseuse offers a wide range of wellness and beauty treatments. Karen Blixen Camp is the perfect place to sit back and relax with a gin and tonic overlooking the Mara River and the wildlife coming to drink, whilst exchanging stories about the day's adventures.

    The camp is located in the exclusive private, award winning conservation area, the Mara North Conservancy. The conservancy adjoins the Masai Mara Game Reserve and stretches north between the Mara River and the Olare River up to the Lemek Hills which it includes as well - with its 32,000 hectares and low vehicle density, the visitor is granted a private and exclusive wilderness experience away from the masses and minivans.

    Day 1: Nairobi - Mara North Conservancy, Masai Mara Fly from Nairobi to Mara North Conservancy. Upon arrival game drive en-route to Karen Blixen Camp. After lunch at the camp go for an afternoon game drive in Mara North Conservancy. Overnight at Karen Blixen Camp.

    Day 2: Mara North Conservancy / Masai Mara Game Reserve During the Migration Season (mid July - end October) we will spend the whole day game viewing in the Masai Mara Game Reserve. Masai Mara means dotted trees - and it is often in the shadow of these we find lions resting, a leopard finishing its prey or resting on a branch or a cheetah climbing a termite mount to scan the horizon for its lunch. The Masai Mara is so rich in game that it exceeds every visitor's expectations and during the months of mid July to end October, the area sees the annual migration with over a million wildebeests, zebras and antelopes, adding to the excitement when crossing the mighty Mara River or the lesser Talek River where large Nile Crocodiles hope to get their feast. From November to mid July we can choose between a full day game drive in Mara North Conservancy or a morning and afternoon game drive. The conservancy is very rich in game and holds the highest concentration of lions anywhere in the Mara - Serengeti Ecosystem. One will also have a good chance of viewing very large herds of buffalo, elands and elephants amongst a very healthy population of leopards, cheetahs and hyenas. Overnight at Karen Blixen Camp.

    Day 3: Mara North Conservancy - Nairobi Take a morning game drive before breakfast and your flight back to Nairobi.

Ideally positioned for migration viewing, this intimate bush camp is nestled near the confluence of the Talek and Mara rivers.

    Bwindi Impenetrable Forest impresses with a truly theatrical landscape - this is a region of volcanoes, jagged valleys, waterfalls, lakes and dramatic mountain ranges. And it is here, on a flat ridge high in the forest, that Sanctuary's Gorilla Forest Camp is tucked away. It's hard to fathom that such luxury and sophistication could be available in an area as remote as this, and we did face enormous logistical obstacles - but it was worth the wait.

    Sanctuary Gorilla Forest Camp is the ideal base for a gorilla tracking adventure in Bwindi. Guests can dine under the stars and relax by the roaring campfire. On cooler evenings, the central cottage provides a warm shelter. Located within the National Park, Sanctuary Gorilla Forest Camp offers guests an unrivalled location, including the best bird and wildlife viewing in the Bwindi area.

    Kruger Wildlife Experience

    from $2,569*

    Kruger National Park and the adjoining private reserves of Greater Kruger National Park form one of Africa's finest wildlife areas, offering superb viewing opportunities all year round. In one of the first national parks to be established in Africa, the custodians of Kruger faced tragedy, triumph and hardship, as they have strived to protect a pristine wilderness region that is sanctuary to over 700 species of mammals, reptiles and birds.

    Our safari is conducted by a professional guide, who works in conjunction with the specialist local guides of Timbavati Private Reserve. After a night in Johannesburg we set out for Greater Kruger National Park using an air-conditioned microbus. Once we reach camp all game drives are conducted in open 4WD vehicles.

    We spend three nights in a private game lodge in Timbavati Game Reserve, part of Greater Kruger National Park, which boasts a similar range of animals to those found in the park proper. These include the 'Big Five', but the private reserves offer more opportunities for varied and close-up encounters.

    With the open 4WD vehicles and a maximum of nine people in each, there is ample space to observe the many different species as they interact with each other and their environment. Keen photographers also have the chance to take those special shots of unexpected and sometimes dramatic wildlife interactions, as well as of peaceful bushveld scenes.

    Magic of Madagascar

    from $4,729*

    Madagascar is one of those destinations that seem to conjure up a thousand images just upon hearing the name alone. It is exotic and little-known - an island filled with strange and exciting flora and fauna. It is truly a land of exotic landscapes with diverse features and astounding natural beauty.

    From the craggy eroded sandstone sculptures of Isalo National Park and the stunning coastline of the west to the rolling hills of the south and the seemingly pre-historic forests of the dramatic Tsaranoro Valley, Madagascar's beauty is certainly inspiring. Being cut off from the African mainland for millions of years has resulted in a diverse number of endemic species found nowhere else on earth.

    Of these, the lemurs have attracted special interest and we get to meet many different types, from the indri (the largest species) of Anjozorobe Forest to the dancing Verreaux's sifaka of Berenty Reserve. Encountering these amazing primates is a real highlight, as their inquisitive personalities, sheer cunningness and striking markings are sure to provide many endearing memories.

    Madagascar is also rich in bird life with many endemic species and there are also several unique reptile species, including the amazing chameleon. We also visit villages and remote communities, with a kaleidoscope of 18 million people and 18 distinct tribal groups ensuring many rich and varied cultural experiences.

    Although Madagascar is a relatively new tourism destination, the Malagasy people are warm and friendly and live harmoniously in their island paradise. One of the most memorable aspects of travelling to Madagascar is the relaxed pace and the real lack of haste that seems to be part of day-to-day life of the Malagasy people. This is one holiday experience that is sure to be etched in your memory

  • This outstanding adventure is our most popular trip, travelling through the greatest game parks in East Africa

    Highlights of Kenya and Tanzania

    from $5,980*

    HIGHLIGHTS: Nairobi - Meru National Park - Nakuru - Lake Nakuru National Park - Masai Mara - Arusha - Lake Manyara National Park - Serengeti National Park - Olduvai Gorge - Ngorongoro Crater - Tarangire National Park

    This is East Africa's premier safari experience Utilising lodges and two alluring permanent tented camps, this journey features two of Africa's most prolific and spectacular wildlife countries. In Nakuru we are also able to support the incredible Ujima Foundation, which is giving many impoverished locals an opportunity to develop certain skills that will give them a better chance in life.

    In Kenya we explore the Masai Mara and Meru National Park, as well as visit the alkaline Lake Nakuru. Kenya's game reserves are among the best in the world, with large quantities of animals inhabiting vast tracts of land. The ecosystems, landscapes and wildlife highlight the diversity of this region and our guide will be happy to explain to us all the intricacies of this fascinating area. Our beautiful tented camp on the outskirts of Masai Mara National Reserve also affords opportunities for a game walk and a night drive, in addition to the traditional full day game drive in 'the Mara' itself.

    Tanzania boasts some of the most impressive national parks in Africa, containing some of the best collection of wildlife in the entire continent. We visit Lake Manyara National Park, Serengeti National Park and Tarangire National Park, as well as the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Ngorongoro Crater. Tanzania boasts some of the most impressive national parks in Africa, containing some of the best range of wildlife on the entire continent.

    We visit Lake Manyara National Park, one of many such soda lakes in East Africa's Great Rift Valley, for our first game drive from our base at an incredible lodge overlooking the lake. From Lake Manyara we travel through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and into the bordering Serengeti National Park. This is the quintessential Africa, where wide open plains stretch as far as the eye can see, supporting vast numbers of plains animals, including over two million wildebeest.

    We also pay a visit to the world-renowned Ngorongoro Crater. Just 20 kilometres wide, the crater floor teems with vast quantities of animals, including elephant, lion, cheetah and black rhino. The park is truly a mini Garden of Eden. We will explore the crater from our lodge, which is spectacularly perched on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. From Ngorongoro we travel to our final national park, Tarangire National Park, which has a wildlife concentration second only to the Ngorongoro Crater.
  • Small group tour maximum on 12 passengers

    Delta, Dunes & Falls

    from $6,175*

    The dramatic landscape of Table Mountain, as it is towers over the great cosmopolitan city of Cape Town, is one of the most striking views you'll encounter on the continent. From this impressive introduction we travel north through the verdant hills of Cederberg and the arid, rocky panorama of the Northern Cape to Namibia.

    Namibia is one of the great surprises of southern Africa, boasting some of the most spectacular and breathtaking desert scenery on earth. The great sand dunes of the Namib Desert, which rear over 300 metres above the desert floor, are a sight never to be forgotten.

    When one adds some of the world's most weird and wonderful vegetation, the wild Atlantic coast and the famous rock etchings of Twyfelfontein, it all results in a destination of unparalleled diversity. And as no visit to Africa is complete without viewing wildlife, the famous Etosha National Park provides the perfect opportunity to encounter a great array of animal and bird life, the equal of any in Africa.

    When you combine all of this with a visit to an area containing arguably the most amazing wetlands in the world, namely the wonderful Okavango Delta in neighbouring Botswana, the result is an expedition of extraordinary diversity. The Okavango boasts delightful water-based scenery, often in total contrast to the dry and arid lands which surround it, along with some quite exceptional birding - you don't have to be an enthusiast to be soon enthralled - and the opportunity to see much of the wildlife which Africa is so justifiably famous for.

    To complete this magical safari we travel to Livingstone in Zambia to view the spectacular Victoria Falls or 'Mosi-oa-Tunya' as it is locally known, meaning 'The Smoke That Thunders'.
  • Small group tour maximum on 15 passengers

    Kilimanjaro Climb & Tanzania Safari

    from $6,195*

    Mount Kilimanjaro is the tallest mountain in Africa. It lies close to the equator, yet snow, ice and glaciers are to be found on its highest slopes. Soaring to the impressive altitude of 5895 metres (19,350 feet), it provides incredible views of hundreds of square kilometres of surrounding countryside - thousands of feet below - as well as of the mountain peaks, valleys and glaciers around you.

    The walk to the summit takes you through a number of distinctly different climatic and vegetation zones - from beautiful rainforest, to alpine moorland, to volcanic desert, to glaciers, ice and snow. Even if you do not make it to the top, the scenic interest and rewards of the lower sections are considerable.

    No mountaineering experience is required; you are able to walk all the way. As you gain altitude, however, the going will seem tough at times - the increasing effect of altitude, and walking on scree slopes on the upper sections, mean that this is a far-from-easy undertaking.

    In addition, very cold conditions can be encountered on the higher slopes, and you must be adequately equipped with cold and wet weather clothing. However, if you walk slowly, even from the start at lower altitudes, have a good mental attitude and a reasonable degree of physical fitness, this will all help immeasurably.

    You will be accompanied by guides, and porters will help to carry your luggage. On the way up your nights are spent in tents, on the Machame route; however on the descent you join the Mweka route, spending one night in this area (but still using our own tents). The thrill of reaching the summit of Kilimanjaro gives one an unsurpassed sense of achievement.

    The Machame Route is a day longer than the standard trail - and we have added a further day to the standard itinerary - this provides important additional time for acclimatisation and may well increase your chances of summiting.

    After your climb you head out on safari staying in beautifully appointed, permanent tented camps. We game drive at picturesque Lake Manyara enroute to the world-renowned Ngorongoro Crater. Just 20 kilometres wide, the crater floor teems with vast quantities of game, including elephant, lion, cheetah and black rhino.

    From Ngorongoro Crater we head into the Serengeti National Park. This is quintessential Africa, where wide open plains stretch as far as the imagination, and beyond, supporting vast numbers of plains game, including over two million wildebeest. A visit to the Serengeti ranks as one of the major highlights in all of Africa. This trip is truly the ultimate challenge, followed by the ultimate reward
