FAQs about luxury African safari tours

  • When is the best time to take an Africa tour and safari?

    Africa offers great experiences all year round, but the best time to visit depends on what you wish to see and do.

    April to October is considered the dry season and is the ideal time to view an abundance of game on safari. If you're visiting the north of the region, you might wish to travel in the cooler seasons of spring and autumn, although there can be heavy rain in Kenya.

    Our travel specialists can help you choose the best time of year to take a safari tour based on your preferred activities and experiences.

  • Where is the best location for a safari tour?

    The best destination for you depends on what you wish to see, who you’re travelling with and what activities you wish to participate in. There are some incredible locations to take a luxury safari tour, immerse yourself in the rich African culture and experience thrilling adventures.

    Kenya offers some of the best opportunities to see the "big five" and is a popular destination for luxury safari tours. You'll also discover incredible, striking landscapes, serene lakes and awe-inspiring nature reserves. Botswana is also a sanctuary for an abundance of birds as well as zebra, with its inland delta providing a unique lush and diverse landscape, perfect for an African safari.

    If you're looking for a more varied destination with ample opportunity for cultural exploration and vibrant cities thrown into the mix, then a South African safari and tour could be the perfect combination.

However, Kenya and Zimbabwe also offer some unique and magical safari experiences for children and adults alike.

  • What animals will I see on an Africa safari tour?

    The specific animals you're likely to see depend on the exact destination.
