An African Safari is an unforgettable travel experience, it touches something deep within us and it is an experience that will never be forgotten.

We won’t suggest a camp or lodge to you unless one of us has been there. We have walked with the guides, eaten the food and slept in the beds.

We travel every few months to see new properties and to re-visit old favourites. We look at numerous camps on these trips – it is only by actually seeing what is out there that we can be sure we are offering you the best advice.

Where possible, we will use small, owner-run camps and lodges so you can experience the bush away from the crowds.

We also understand that a guide can make or break your trip. The small camps we use also tend to employ better guides.

We will speak to you on your return. We want to hear about your trip and find that client feedback (both good and occasionally bad) helps keep us abreast of changes on the ground.

Whether you are an individual, couple, family or a group, we can help you plan your itinerary and ensure that you enjoy Tanzania and the real Africa with absolute confidence and security.

Planning Your Safari Itinerary

We invite you to do your own research using this site, the Sample Safaris links section, and the recommended books for Africa, but if this feels like too much work, call us at +255 (0)784 792 343 and we can discuss options!

There are countless books written on Africa, and some of them are difficult to get in this country. Included in each section is a list of those that are currently available or that I like personally.

There is such a vast amount of information on the Internet, and in the brochures at the travel agencies, that it is quite difficult to discern the good from the bad, and what really will suit you and your family or travelling partners. Having spent many years here, we can ascertain the logistics required to get to each place, thus maximising value for time and money. We spend a considerable amount of time each year travelling to different places in Africa to inspect them and assess the logistics. We are in a better position than almost anyone to help your safari. As this will be the greatest holiday of your life, it is important to get the maximum value from it.

We do not put groups together. You can choose your travel companions or travel alone if you prefer! We will make a safari work for you whether your group size is 1 or 20! As we are completely independent, we can advise you on the best of every different safari outfitter and operator, which often does NOT mean working through just one operator. We deal direct with the various companies in Africa, so there are no expensive middlemen involved.

Over the years, although humans are on a rapid increase, and game numbers are declining correspondingly, facilities and options to see them have improved too. While this means a lot more tourists in some areas, we focus our advice on trying to find places that are "off the beaten track", away from the minibuses and other tourists, where one can see and enjoy Africa as it always has been. Your trip will need to be perfect so you will tell your friends about us!
