Laid Back Luxury

If you are looking for a super luxurious trip with bucket loads of experiences thrown in, then you really can’t beat a holiday in Southern Africa.

Whether it’s a safari in the bush and/or an idyllic paradise beach you desire – South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, Mozambique & Malawi – all boast camps and boutique lodges with levels of luxury and service rivalling any 5 star hotel.  This in spite of being located in some of the remotest and wildest African destinations.  

This is “Private Africa” – you will enjoy amazingly designed sumptuous camps in prime locations with bush boutiques, plunge pools, well equipped gyms, butler services and fine dining.  But above and beyond this, a luxury safari provides unique levels of exclusivity.

Our selected luxury camps are most often set in their own private reserves within national parks – where off road 4×4 game drives as well as night drives are the norm.  These reserves are sometimes so vast that you will not encounter another safari vehicle.  Then there are the guides – the best wildlife locations attract Africa’s finest – those who are extremely knowledgeable and devoted to conservation of both wildlife and region.  Private guides and private vehicles raise the exclusivity level even higher.  Botswana is a particularly exclusive destination in that tourist numbers are limited and this is reflected in the camp prices.  Light aircraft fly-in safaris are the norm getting you off the beaten track and quickly into remotest wilderness.  Our favourites include Zarafa and Mombo Camp

Some camps can be taken exclusively, so are perfect for family or small group of friends to safari together creating life-long unique memories.  Ask us about our selection of Private Villas – Zambia’ Chongwe River House and South Africa offer some outstanding ones.

Then there are idyllic castaway islands of Mozambique- the Bazaruto Archipelago is one such destination with its white sandy beaches, turquoise waters, magnificent scenery and luxury lodges all lying within a marine national park that protects a huge variety of reef fish as well as giant turtles, devil rays, the endangered dugong and 140 bird species.
