Private safari lodges, camps and beach villas

For many years, travellers to Africa have revelled in the vast expanses of wilderness, the peace and quiet of the bush (if one discounts the cacophony of bird song and wildlife calls) and the joy of time and space to themselves alone.  Being able to secure private safari lodges for space is very achievable across many of Africa’s best destinations. Whether it’s for pure wildlife and wilderness, some horse riding, witnessing some of Africa’s great wildlife migrations, enjoying the beauty and luxury of one of the Cape’s finest vineyards, or relaxing on a private island or a tropical beach, we can find exactly the property and guides to suit your wishes.

Because Africa is so enormous there is a decent amount of private wilderness available. We know a good number of small safari camps or private safari lodges on private conservancies and in national parks that can be taken on an exclusive basis in every country we operate in. A selection of our favourites are listed below.

For adventurous travellers, we can arrange completely private climbing expeditions and mobile cycling, walking, and riding safaris guided by the very best in the business, among them several legendary figures. All of these options afford visitors complete exclusivity and privacy with a dedicated team looking after the camp or lodge, and private guides, vehicles and activities.
