All 116 itineraries on this site are set out day by day, so you can read what each day actually contains before you ask us anything.
We record the 40 parks and reserves our itineraries spend a day in — 2 of them in South Africa — and every trip card names the ones it visits.
The heart on any trip card keeps that itinerary in your trip planner in this browser, so you can put several side by side before you decide.
There is no booking engine and no payment step here. Tell us which itineraries you have shortlisted and what you would change about them.
Every figure on this South Africa page is counted from the itineraries we publish. Where we could not verify something, the row is simply not there.

What you can check
116 itineraries are published on this site, across 12 destinations; 49 of them run through Uganda, where the company is based and licensed. Any one of them can be read in full — the route, the parks, the nights — before you speak to anybody. What follows is the case for using us, and not one line of it asks you to take our word for it.
Every trip of four days or more is set out one day at a time: where the day goes, what happens in it, where the night is spent. The one-, two- and three-day trips are written up in full as prose instead. Nothing is held back until you enquire.
Read the itinerariesA trip is listed against a park because its itinerary genuinely spends time there, never because the name turns up in the write-up. 40 parks and reserves are covered on that rule, and each one lists the trips that actually go.
Browse parks and reservesGroups are kept small — typically four to twelve guests — and a private departure can be arranged instead.
