& Combinations
Choosing a scenic location to kick off your African safari is a popular approach for many of our clients. Our major cities in South Africa include Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban, all excellent starting points for a Luxury African Safari. A typical approach is to spend a few days in Cape Town before you depart on your Safari trip to a lodge in Southern Africa. Using Cape Town as a base allows you to recover from jetlag by visiting the surrounding winelands and the nearby coastal Garden Route for a few days before departing on your Safari trip. From there, you can start any number of a tailor-made single Safari trips ranging from 3 to 5 days. You can even embark on multiple trips for over 6 to 10 days before returning to Cape Town.
Remember, we’re here for you. Our job is to get to know your wants and needs and translate them into a trip that surpasses your wildest expectations. Here at Luxury African Safaris, we don’t want to simply plan your safari. We want you to have the most memorable holiday of your life.
The staff at our head office in Cape Town has the experience necessary to make that happen. We will show you the music, meals, wines, and scenic settings intrinsic to the African experience. Imagine sunrise breakfasts on pristine beaches followed by picnic lunches under the oak trees of the most prestigious African wine farms. Helicopter rides or sailboat trips at sunset around the Cape Peninsula are more than possible, as are pre-dinner drinks at a watering hole surrounded by African wildlife. We have even planned wedding ceremonies on our immaculate beaches and atop our famous mountains.
No matter which experience you crave, we can help you live it.
Ride low over the African plain as you take a short, yet thrilling flight to any of our premium safari destinations. Here you can enjoy sampling a wide array of delicious traditional foods as you take in every aspect of our diverse culture and wildlife. Listening to the roar of the proud lion or the howling of the jackal as night falls peacefully around you adds the kind of atmosphere to your trip which you certainly can’t find anywhere else — and with Luxury African Safari, you can enjoy it all while relaxing in the most opulent accommodations our continent has to offer.
We want all your senses to be immersed in the soul of Africa. The sights, sounds, touches, smells, and tastes which we have here are quite different than what many Europeans and Americans are accustomed too. That’s why we take special care to ensure you stay as comfortable as possible throughout the safari. We want to custom-build a trip which aligns with your needs, tastes, and wishes.
With our extensive experience, industry connections, and knowledge of cultures around the world, we have what it takes to build the perfect luxury safari for you.
