Private Guided Safaris

Private safaris for sheer perfection

A private guided safari allows you to not merely observe Africa’s wilderness and wildlife, rather immerse in it. You will have an expert leading you through remote areas and allowing you to smell, feel, listen and even touch the bush all the while listening to sounds, savouring its sights and smells.

You can travel with your private guide and stay in all sorts of accommodation types from lodges to camps. There are so many different types of accommodation ranging from uber-luxury and sophisticated to rustic adventure camping.

We tailor private safaris to utilise your preferred type of accommodation. If you want our opinion, the best are small private, owner-run camps and lodges with genuine intimate settings and great staff who meet your individual needs and interests.

The more remote you want to go the better! Just keep in mind the trade-off may be added expense of getting people and supplies into that area. We find our guests are happier the further away they get from civilisation and what comes naturally is a willingness to forego the creature comforts.

You travel around in either light aircraft or private 4×4 custom-built vehicles attuned to the environment you’re exploring. The presence of your private guide makes it easy to participate in out of the ordinary experiences not usually available to guests. It also allows you to linger longer where you care to or get on the road quicker if the desire is there. Your guide, a tailored itinerary and pace that you can set in the planning and change on the day.

Our private guides can get you out on game drives, fishing, mountain biking or even horse riding. The most skilled guides are in tune with nature and the best placed to take you on walking safaris and canoeing safaris. Your guide will teach you about local life, cultures and traditions and share their story of life as a local.
