Africa safari and beach holidays

A Big Five safari in Africa is a classic bucket-list favourite, and for good reason. There’s nothing more magical than spotting lions on the Serengeti at sunset or watching elephants around a waterhole in the Masai Mara. Feel the thunder of hooves during the Great Migration, see vast herds grazing in the Ngorongoro Crater, and chuckle at vervet monkeys playing in the trees.

Perfect for families, honeymooners, and travellers of all ages, safari holidays are packed with once-in-a-lifetime moments and unforgettable wildlife encounters. You’ll travel through spectacular landscapes, sleep under endless starry skies, and wake up to the sounds of the bush. 

We're experts at putting together tailor-made safari and beach holidays all over Africa. We create one-of-a-kind itineraries built around the wishes of each customer. No two trips are the same.

Why choose an Africa safari and beach holiday?

Safari holidays are full of early mornings, as you’ll set off at dawn to see the wildlife at its most active. Watching the sunrise over the African bush is something that you’ll never forget. However, after a few days of fast-paced safari action, you’ll be ready for some serious R&R. 

Safari and beach holidays strike the perfect balance between adventure and relaxation, offering both extraordinary wildlife experiences and a chance to unwind. Follow your Big Five safari with some tropical downtime in Zanzibar, fly to the sun-drenched Seychelles, or recharge on the shores of Lake Malawi. Blending bush and beach is an unbeatable combination.
