HOW WE DO THINGS
We dig deep into our roots to enrich your routes and take you where you couldn’t get to by yourself.
We seek out less travelled roads and tread lightly wherever we go on our art and craft tours.
We exclude international flights to give you the freedom to choose your route / flying class.
We partner with safari specialists to show you an Africa inaccessible to all but a few.
Look over these options for a safari-of-a-lifetime, to suit your pocket and enthral your senses.
This national tour is timed at the peak of the spring flowering season when temperatures are at their most pleasant in Cape Town and during jacaranda season in Johannesburg and The Cradle.
