Africa

Luxury tailor-made Africa travel

Africa is a continent of sublime contrast. The shimmering waterways of Botswana’s Okavango Delta – and the magnificent species that inhabit them – seem worlds away from the intricate chambers of Egypt’s Valley of the Kings or the peaceful quietude of Zanzibar’s blue-green seascapes. Each place with its own unique contours and contexts, there’s truly something here for every traveller. From the thrill of a close-up wildlife encounter to the peaceful desolation of the desert. This is the place where it all began; where the deepest roots of humankind can be traced.

Start Planning…


This is a place for those seeking the unexpected. The unusual and the exotic. We’ll take you on a journey through Asia’s best kept secrets and ancient treasures. Dine by moonlight on a black-sand beach, learn the way of the ninja in a historic dojo, and embark on a whale watching experience from your own private plane. Ready to jump into something different (but still totally luxury)?

The insider knowledge of our Asia Travel Experts is at your disposal. They’ll quite literally open doors, whether it be those of an elephant sanctuary, a sumo wrestling stable, or even a Bollywood studio. With years of experience exploring this fascinating continent, they’ll show you the best places to travel in Asia – crafting a trip that steals you away from the everyday.

North Africa

Between bustling old medinas in Morocco and the ancient pyramids in Egypt, North Africa enchants at every turn. We’ll take you on camel treks with the nomadic Beaudoin through the Sahara, hot air balloon rides high over the Atlas Mountains, arrange a slow-cooked lamb tagine dinner with the locals, and bag you exclusive private access to the iconic Sphinx. These are luxury African holidays with a twist.

Sub Saharan Africa

Our safari tours in Sub-Saharan Africa reveal a different side of this enormous continent. Accompanied by one of our expert local guides, you’ll never be far from an exhilarating wildlife encounter, whether it’s from the seat of a canoe or a helicopter. Think elephants stomping by your camp at sunrise, wildebeest galloping across the Mara River, and spotting colonies of luminous pink flamingos as you blaze across the Makgadikgadi Pans by quadbike.

Safari

Our luxury African safaris can be as laid back or action-packed as you wish. It might be a sunrise 4X4 trip through the Great Rift Valley to witness a pride of lions on the prowl. It might be traversing the jagged limestone rocks of Madagascar’s Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park in search of lemurs. It might be a walk across Zambia’s unimaginably beautiful plains beside a herd of zebra. And all in between stays at our favourite luxury safari lodges.
