Safari
Packages
We
offer travel packages in all parts of East Africa. We
make strong consideration of your interests and holiday
needs, time and budget. Then we design suitable safari
packages in consultation with you to ensure you derive
the best out of your travel and safari. We do not package
you into mass tourism binges; we recognise your individuality
and specific needs and seek to address them as such.
To us every client is special, whether you are budget
or business traveller. From brief business visits in
the capital cities or countryside to prolonged travel
and safari adventures, we handle your needs to your
fullest satisfaction.
It
is not surprising we receive such comments:
“…Thank
you very much for organizing such an excellent safari
- the whole week was interesting and exciting, and will
remain very memorable…Please
pass on our thanks again to Geoffrey who was outstanding
as our driver and tour leader. He went out of his way
to fit in with our wishes and to give us the very best
holiday he could arrange.We are full of admiration for
his ability to cope with such a tight schedule yet to
remain relaxed and responsive…”

and Jan, Australia, May 2006
Sample
Packages
We have the following sample packages to serve as guide.
However we do not believe in “packaged”
safaris; rather we work with you to get a safari that
suits your time, needs, interests and budget. The following
packages only serve to guide you on the boundless possibilities.
Your actual safari may be a modification of any of them
or a combination of several. Any of them can be budget
or luxury.
