New Trips in Africa

Tanzania Safari Experience (DTTS)

As the home of Olduvai Gorge, the world’s most treasured paleontological site, it’s safe to say humans have been coming to Tanzania forever. So, where’ve you been? Seamlessly blending out-there access with stylish comfort, this trip brings you close to wonders like Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro Crater, the plains of Serengeti and the ‘Big 5’ before returning you to a cozy safari lodge or comfort-minded tented camp. True, it’s not exactly the way homo erectus did it, but that’s what evolution is all about, no?

Kenya Safari Experience (DKKS)

If you’re of the opinion that ‘safari’ doesn’t have to be synonymous with ‘roughing it,’ have we got an adventure for you! Designed for travellers who long to get out into the thick of Kenya’s game parks and reserves by day and sleep in a cozy bed by night, this trip maximizes both wildlife access and creature comforts. Witness thousands of flamingos stopping for a drink in Lake Nakuru, explore the vast plains of the Masai Mara National Reserve and gaze in awe at the peaks of Kilimanjaro in the distance from Amboseli National Park. Maximum Africa—minimal sweat.

Delta, Falls & Kruger (DAFK)

From South Africa, through Botswana and into Zambia, track exotic wildlife across stunning scenery in comfortable vehicles and explore the Okavango by dug-out mokoro canoe. At night, fall asleep to the songs of the wilderness as you camp underneath big African skies. Our expert CEO will take the hassle out of planning and help you find the secluded spots only the locals know, leaving you free to enjoy the scenery and wildlife. From the teeming wilderness of Kruger National Park to the stunning views of legendary Victoria Falls, this is a true African adventure!

Kruger Camping Adventure (DAKA)

A classic five-day wilderness adventure that can be enjoyed on its own or as the perfect add-on to another trip. Track the 'Big 5' through the stunning wilderness of world-renowned Kruger National Park—one of the largest and most diverse wildlife areas in Africa. Add to the mix a visit to the village of Shalati to meet the beneficiaries of a Planeterra project, an up-close encounter with the region's rhythms, a traditional dinner—and you have a complete camping experience.

Madagascar Experience (DMHM)

Wild landscapes, village culture, beaches—Madagascar might be an island but there’s nothing small about it. For those who like to get remote, this isolated island is packed with wildlife, landscapes and people you’ll find nowhere else. And everybody loves lemurs. You’ll get to embrace local life but still have time to relax at the beach. Best of all, there’s always a local CEO there to lead the way and provide a link to the unusual and extraordinary.

Southern Africa Safari (DADSD)

Visit the very best of South Africa, Botswana and Zambia in two action-packed weeks. Whether from the bow of a boat or the back of an open 4x4, our experts will improve your chances of getting ‘the’ shot. When on safari, our serviced tented camps are perfect for those who want the complete experience but prefer a more comfortable option—you’ll drift off to sleep to the soft calls of cranes and awake to the rustle of elephants grazing on nearby riverbanks. This trip isn’t just about the wildlife—it’s for those interested in cultural heritage, too. You’ll experience a meal in a South African home, tour Soweto in Johannesburg and join in a drum session in Livingstone. Experience all Southern Africa has to offer!

The Garden Route (DAGR)

Mild temperatures, lush forests and supreme comfort aren’t what many people think of when they hear ‘Africa.’ But then again, most people never explore South Africa’s Western Cape. It’s their loss, really; this trip incorporates an unbeatable combination of beaches, coves, cuisine and accommodation. And there’s plenty of the other Africa on hand, too; the region’s ruggedly beautiful scenery guarantees you’ll get plenty of both the Africa you know—and the one you just fell in love with.

Highlights of Southern Africa (DAHS)

If you traced the Call of the Wild, it would originate in Southern Africa. This journey deep into the heart of the Dark Continent will get you closer to the fascinating wildlife and unfiltered natural beauty of this region than you’ve ever been before. Safari excursions in search of the ‘Big 5’ through Botswana and South Africa’s Kruger National Park and Timbavati Game Reserve form the backbone of this trip. And while the animals doze, you’ll have ample time to recharge in the intimate environs of Livingstone, Zambia.

Kruger & Cape Town (DAKC)

South Africa’s seamless ability to blend unfiltered natural rawness and cosmopolitan creature comforts is equal parts accident and art. This trip takes you from the thriving urban culture and plush accommodations of the big cities to an authentic safari excursion in Kruger National Park and the Timbavati Game Reserve. Track the ‘Big 5’ with a team of skilled and knowledgeable CEOs by day, break for a delectable dinner, then hit the town in style at night. This is quintessential Africa.

Kruger & the Garden Route (DAKG)

Two wildly divergent—and equally authentic—sides of Africa, one incredible life-changing trip! Designed especially for the comfort-minded traveller, this adventure merges the world-famous wildlife of South Africa with the equally wondrous (and less-explored) natural grace of the fabled Garden Route over 12 extraordinary days. Wildlife excursions in Kruger National Park will bring you closer to the ‘Big 5’ than any nature documentary, and relaxing evenings spent sipping wine and dining in style on the glorious southeastern coast make for a truly unforgettable experience.

Kruger, Cape Town & Falls (DAKL)

The perfect African adventure for those who want to experience all of this region’s diverse pleasures quickly, authentically and comfortably, this 13-day trip has it all—and then some. Unfolding in three flight-assisted stages, this trip will take you from urbane Cape Town to the sprawling wilderness of Kruger National Park, home of the ‘Big 5’ and countless photo ops. From there, jet off to Livingstone, Zambia’s colonial jewel, and feel the awesome roar of Victoria Falls for yourself. Throughout, experienced CEOs will be on hand to draw out the best this magical land has to offer.

Kruger Safari (DAKR)

Savvy travellers know that a genuine African wildlife safari experience need not be all sweat and struggle. We built this six-day trip for adventurers who want to get right out into the thick of things with a minimum of fuss and a maximum of comfort. Here, you’ll tour South Africa’s famed Kruger National Park and Timbavati Game Reserve by day and dream of tomorrow’s encounters with the ‘Big 5’ from the coziest lodges available. With trusty CEOs at the ready, you’re free to focus on the important stuff, like squeezing that rhino into your viewfinder.

Kruger & Falls (DAKU)

Enjoy a quick taste of southern Africa’s characteristic highlights on this brief-yet-comprehensive trip to South Africa and Zambia. It begins with a six-day safari expedition in Kruger National Park and the Timbavati Game Reserve—South Africa’s famed zoos without cages—where you’ll get the chance to see and photograph the ‘Big 5’ on their own turf. Later, you’ll jet off to Zambia for a date with the awesome spectacle that is Victoria Falls, the largest waterfall in the world. Finally, there’s time to unwind and absorb the experience along the banks of the Zambezi River in Livingstone.
