Our Luxury Safari Destinations
Africa is a continent of extraordinary contrasts, so large it fits America, China and India inside of it. From the sweeping savannahs of Tanzania to the undulating endlessness of Namibia’s ochre sands and the pristine Indian Ocean islands, every destination is different – but every one offers unique and inspiring encounters with wildlife, nature and local culture.
We design luxury African safaris uniquely crafted to your specific needs in a variety of destinations. Whether you want to experience the Great Migration in Kenya or discover the world’s last remaining mountain gorillas in Rwanda or immerse yourself in the vibrant culture and culinary scene of South Africa, we offer rarified luxury safari experiences across Africa, not found anywhere else. Our insider access and knowledge come from a lifetime on the continent, living experiences that only a local can know.

“When you’re in Africa, a sense of primal connection and instinct appear. Your hearing is sharper, your sight is more vivid. You’re connecting with things that in day-to-day life, you don’t even notice…” Deborah Calmeyer, CEO & Founder, ROAR AFRICA
"I've been reflecting even more on how far this journey has taken me - and how my yes to you altered my life forever."
