Dear Adventure seeker,

Do you dream of exploring Africa with like-minded people – without feeling like just another face in a crowd? Are you craving a journey that’s curated by experts, but still feels intimate, flexible and full of soul?

Or perhaps you’ve always wanted to visit Africa, but the idea of going it alone feels overwhelming?

At Encompass Africa, our Small Group Journeys are the perfect answer. Designed for curious, independent travellers who value connection, comfort and conversation, these trips offer all the magic of Africa – minus the hassle of planning or the stress of big groups.

Why you should come

Our small group tours are different by design. You’ll enjoy meaningful encounters, shared experiences, and room to breathe. We handcraft each itinerary to highlight the best of the region – whether that’s tracking wildlife on a mokoro in Botswana, sailing the Zambezi at sunset, or sharing stories with Maasai elders in Kenya.

Each tour is personally hosted by one of our exceptional local guides – passionate storytellers who bring the landscapes, cultures and wildlife of Africa vividly to life.

What to expect

• Seamless travel – We handle every detail, from airport transfers to national park permits, so you can simply relax and enjoy the journey.
• Thoughtful pacing – Our itineraries are carefully balanced, with time for both adventure and rest. No rush, no overwhelm – just the right rhythm for discovery.
• Like-minded company – Share stories over sundowners, bond on bush walks, and build friendships that often last long after the safari dust settles.
• Exclusive experiences – From private game drives to behind-the-scenes cultural visits, our small groups open doors that big tours simply can.

Who it’s perfect for

• Solo travellers who want the freedom of solo travel with the comfort of companionship.
• Couples and friends looking for a richer, more personal experience than a traditional tour.
• Curious travellers of all ages who value depth, connection and great storytelling.

Ready to experience Africa in a way that feels truly you – with a few new friends by your side?
