Safari Ah safari — the word alone evokes a sense of anticipation for all that lies ahead! ‘Safari’ comes from the Swahili ‘to journey or to travel’ and can basically be defined as an expedition to observe animals in their natural habitat. The Immersive Experience of an African Safari Africa is synonymous with wildlife and wildlife safaris. A safari to Africa will de-stress you like no other holiday. You can immerse yourself in the fascinating animals, close encounters, exceedingly comfortable and diverse accommodation, exquisite African cuisine (yes — it is spectacular!), the many and varied ecosystems from Kalahari Desert to the world-heritage listed Okavango Delta, savanna and open plains, to rainforests and mountains — Africa is tireless in all it has to offer. The African People and Culture The African people, especially the tribal people, are some of the friendliest you will encounter anywhere in the world. Smiles comes easily and often. Sharing their culture and humour is part of their welcome to visitors. You’ll also appreciate the pride and pleasure shown by the exceptionally professional game guides; they’ll intrigue you with stories, facts and folklore from the bush. Africa is a photographer’s dream, with safari tour vehicles designed to give you the very best chance to safely see and photograph the wildlife. Safety is an absolute priority in all the work that we do. Why Choose Us? Destinations Africa specialises exclusively in bespoke, personalised safaris to Africa. Unlike a travel agency, our experienced team does not operate in any other part of the world and you’ll see that many of our staff members are of African origin.

We have a very intimate knowledge and understanding of how to provide maximum value and enjoyment to our guests, whether families, work colleagues, groups of friends, couples or singles.

Cost only becomes an issue in the absence of value, and we make it our job to ensure you receive the very best value. We are available to speak with you 24/7 and discuss your plans, ideas and to answer any questions that you may have.
