African Safari Destinations
Wildlife Safaris and African Safaris and Tours are Our Speciality
Safari destinations in Africa are sometimes far apart. So, as a general rule of thumb, the shorter the Safari duration the fewer countries you should plan on visiting. That will allow you to get a real feel for the Safari area or reserve you are visiting. Each country has a different feel when it comes to how their Wildlife Safaris are conducted. Generally the private reserves allow vehicles to go off road where National Parks tend to limit traffic to the main roads. Also private reserves often offer night drives which can be very exciting, especially if a pride of lion are on a stalk. All destinations will have excellent game viewing or we wouldn’t recommend them.
Don’t feel overwhelmed by the many options. Based on your wishes we can guide you through the process. Everything we do is custom but here are some ideas to start with.
- South Africa – The game viewing is excellent in the Private Reserves we use. In addition there are easy add-ons such as Cape Town, Rovos Rail, and Victoria Falls. South African Safaris can be customized to fit any budget. All year long but best from March-through November. Sample Itineraries: Cape Town & Bush - Three Bush Lodges - Ultimate Luxury Safari
- Kenya – A Safari to East Africa and the Masai Mara if timed right will put you in the middle of the Great Migration”. This annual event (July-August) showcases thousands of wildebeests and zebra on their annual migration looking for new grass to feed on. The game viewing is good all year long, and the value season offers great game sightings without the crowds. Sample Itinerary
- Tanzania Safari - The Serengeti is located in Tanzania and along with Kenya is home to the “Great Migration” during parts of the year (June-July). Ngorongoro Crater is also a game viewing destination in and of its self. You can combine Kenya and Tanzania on one safari. Sample Itinerary
- Zimbabwe Safari - The game viewing in Zimbabwe is excellent; Hwange National Park is second in size to Kruger National Park and home to Africa’s “Big Five”. The camps are reasonably priced so it is very affordable. Starting or ending a Safari in Victoria Falls works very well. April-October is the best time. Sample Itinerary
- Botswana Safari – Botswana has excellent game viewing in very diverse habitat. The camps tend to be a little more expensive, and are mostly tented. Most people who have fallen in love with African Safaris eventually make a safari to Botswana for the experience of the Okavango Delta (April-October). Sample Itinerary
- Desert Safari – Namibia offers game viewing in the Etosha Pans but the real experience is seeing the amazing sand dunes and the desert elephants and Oryx that live in that harsh environment. Then there is the breath taking Skeleton Coast Best time is May-August) Sample Itinerary
- Uganda - Trekking for Gorillas in Uganda is a special and unique Safari experience. Space or permits are very limited. It can be combined with other East African countries. Sample Itinerary
