South Africa is home to some of the finest private game reserve accommodation in Africa, many featuring suites with private plunge pools. Its Eastern Cape also offers some of the best luxury family safaris, with well-appointed and family-friendly accommodation, excellent Big Five viewing and plenty of activities including visits to one of the Born Free animal rehabilitation centres, all in a malaria-free environment.
Zambia’s sophisticated accommodation sits within view of the remarkable Victoria Falls, with activities focused around the mighty Zambezi river as well as 4x4 game drives, whilst Botswana’s world class camps and lodges are located in some of the country’s best game viewing territory.
Fly-in safaris
Exciting and time efficient, a fly-in safari consists of light aircraft flights between locations. Ideal as a more accessible way of reaching remote parks or simply for travelling in style, it’s a wonderful way to get around Africa. And with world class fly-in safaris in Tanzania, Botswana and Namibia offering the ultimate in comfort, a luxury safari doesn’t necessarily need to be tailor-made.
