How We do tailor made safaris

First and foremost we listen to your plans, thoughts, ideas and requirements.

Whether you are traveling to Africa for the first time, or you are an experienced regular Africa traveler, the first thing we want to do is hear your thoughts and requirements. Once we have an understanding of what you are looking for, we will offer you with most suitable expert advice and make relevant suggestions.

Today’s Africa holiday/vacations are almost endless, and we can recommend a very wide range of experiences, from Gorilla and Chimpanzee trekking in adventurous tented safari adventures to luxurious safari experiences and beach lodges.

Just like a tailor will start by taking your measurements, of course we will ask where you are interested to visit, and insightful questions such as who is travelling (age and number of people), safari duration, travel date and your budget. But equally consequential will be a number of more detailed considerations as follows:

  • Your interests and priorities when it comes to primate and wildlife viewing
  • How adventurous or luxurious you would like your accommodation to be
  • How relaxing (or busy) you would like your holiday to be
  • How much travelling you are happy to do
  • How social or private you prefer to be on holiday
  • How active you wish to be on safari
  • How important aspects such personal service, good food, exclusivity or specialist guiding is to you
  • If travelling for any occasions (honeymoon, anniversaries, ets)

If you are planning your first safari and are not entirely sure what your requirements are, then we can guide you through the options and help you decide what will work for you. For example, we can describe in detail the different accommodation options on safari, including the practical considerations such as safety and facilities, and we can talk you through the logistics of going on safari – a typical day on safari, how activities tend to operate and what the travel options are when moving between safari regions.
