The Art of the Safari: Curating the Extraordinary with African Travel, Inc.

  • 3 min read

When it comes to exploring the great continent of Africa, the difference between a good trip and a transformative one lies in the details. Africa is a continent of immense scale, diverse cultures, and intricate logistics that require more than just a map—they require a master. Our Partner of the Month, African Travel Inc. brings half a century of exclusive expertise to every journey, serving as the premier choice for the modern traveler.


Deeply Rooted Expertise 

African Travel, Inc. doesn’t just “sell” Africa, they truly live it. With 50 years of experience, their team is composed of experts who have lived, worked, and traveled extensively across the continent. This deep-rooted knowledge allows them to look beyond the standard tourist trails.


From the sun-drenched vineyards of the south to the desert sands of the north, the destinations curated by African Travel, Inc. represent the very best of the continent’s diverse landscapes. In South Africa, you can pair a sophisticated stay in Cape Town with a private safari in the Greater Kruger ecosystem, perhaps spotting the “Great Eight’ by adding whales, sharks, and penguins to your Big Five checklist. Further north, Kenya and Tanzania offer the quintessential theater of the wild, where you can witness the thundering Great Migration across the Maasai Mara and the Serengeti or enjoy a champagne breakfast in the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro.


For those seeking even more remote encounters, the lush waterways of Botswana’s Okavango Delta offer silent safaris by traditional dugout canoe, while the mist-covered forests of Rwanda provide a rare sanctuary for life-changing treks with the world’s remaining mountain gorillas. The journey can even extend to the vibrant souks and Saharan dunes of Morocco, where the air is filled with the scent of spices and the architecture tells a story of ancient empires. Whether you’re tracking predators in a 4x4 or navigating the labyrinthine alleys of Marrakesh, each destination is brought to life through exclusive local access and a deep commitment to preserving the heartbeat of the land.
