African
Safaris
Scheduled or Customized African Safari
The African safaris we offer
are of three types: Custom Safaris (designed for you based on your dates, budget and interests), Scheduled African Safaris (set pricing and fixed departure dates), and Special Interest Safaris (designed with a specific theme or special interest). Our pre-scheduled African safaris (with
set departures and pricing) are offered in two styles: Explorer Safaris
and Adventurer Safaris (click
here for more). The Special Interest
Safaris have no scheduled departures and therefore are on request only. Our true specialty is creating
100% customized safaris to suit your specific interests.
How do the safaris work and how
much does an African safari cost?
Our scheduled
safaris are offered on a limited basis, depart on set dates and
also require a minimum of 2 or 4 guests. For
this reason, most of the African safaris and African holidays we organize
for our
clients are
100
percent
customized
to their
individual
interests, timeframe and budget. We can design exact
or very similar itineraries to those listed here, leaving on any date
and adding or subtracting nights or destinations to suit your specific
wishes. Using our pre-scheduled safari itineraries as a guideline is a good way to help you figure out where
to start. If
you're not sure, read about the safaris and the
camps, and then give us a call so we can
help you start planning.
As for prices, the
rates for the destinations we offer cover a wide range and typically
vary significantly from the “high
season” (generally July through mid-November) to the “low
season" (generally November through June). We also offer over
200 properties, all with individual pricing and keeping these up
to date on this website would be futile. For
these reasons, we do not publish any property-specific rates on
this website.
However, we
do publish rates for most of our Scheduled African
safaris - those safaris which have already been planned and scheduled
by us or one of our ground operators in Africa and which depart on
set dates, visiting specific locations. These safaris are found here.
We
encourage you to contact us for a quotation; we are here
to assist you in planning an amazing African holiday. We
really are passionate about what we do and we welcome all
enquires.

Characteristics
of an African Safari
You will also notice that the African safaris usually show (on the detailed
write-up pages) a duration (in days) which is for the pre-scheduled departures
for that African safari. These African safaris may also be booked privately
as a group at any time of the year.
