Africa has a safari for every traveler you just need to find your own adventure.
If there’s one thing Africa does better than anywhere else in the world, it’s wildlife and there are few wildlife experiences that can beat the undiluted thrill of a face-to-face encounter with a member of Africa’s Big 5.
South Africa boasts a huge collection of wildlife regions and game parks; both public and private. Part of the magic of South Africa is that, as a country, it encompasses every possible landscape – from deserts to forests to mountains to coast. And each of these landscapes is home to its own variety of wildlife and birdlife species. So, the game reserves and national parks of the country reflect the same variety in their fauna and flora.
South Africa is the proud home of no fewer than 20 national parks. This includes two of the world’s most famous wildlife reserves, the Kruger National Park and Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. In addition, there are numerous private game reserves that have massive biodiversity and world-class safari opportunities.
A South African safari is high on the bucket lists of many travellers and promises endless memories and adventure. Africa’s Big 5 can be found at most of these parks and reserves and are always particularly special to see in their natural environments. Of course, these impressive animals share their habitats with thousands of other fantastic species.
Africa is a large continent that’s home to many amazing other animal species, several of which live nowhere else around the world , it host to 1,100 species of mammals and over 2,600 species of birds.

As during the bygone hunting era the term “Big Five” still conjure up the romance and excitement of Africa’s exotic destinations and experiences.
Seeing the “Big Five” in the wild is one of the most memorable things one can ever experience. The African continent is the only place in the world where big game still roams freely in great numbers.
The name is not derived from the size of the animals as many people believe. Rather, these five animals proved to be the five animals that were the most difficult and dangerous to hunt.
Their reputation has spilled over into the tourism industry and now elephant, buffalo, lion, leopard and rhino remain the most sought after species to see on the continent.
We know how important it is to see Africa’s signature animals, which is why on our recommended Big 5 tours and safaris you have a good chance of seeing all of Africa’s Big 5. We also know where to go and at what time of year.
The term birding was also used for the practice of fowling or hunting with firearms.
The terms birding and birdwatching are today used by some interchangeably, although some participants prefer birding, partly because it includes the auditory aspects of enjoying birds.
South Africa offers a range of birding habitats, from grasslands, wetlands and forests, to savannahs, fynbos, the seashore and open oceans. These habitats offer a spectacular diversity of beautiful birds, from the diminutive, fynbos-restricted Orange-breasted Sunbird to the large, desert-adapted Ludwig’s Bustard.
A remarkable 870 bird species are found in South Africa, representing approximately eight percent of the world’s bird species. Eighteen species are fully endemic and thirty-one are near-endemic to South Africa, i.e. they do not occur naturally anywhere else in the world.

By ‘animal encounter’, we don’t mean observing animals on general game-viewing experiences, but rather an interaction in which the animal is the focus of an activity. Visiting an elephant sanctuary or orphanage are good examples.
When it comes to enjoying an ethical encounter at an animal sanctuary or orphanage, it’s paramount that the animals are handled compassionately, motivated by rewards or treats and, if they are housed, that their enclosures are spacious, safe and as natural as possible – and they are not chained up. Our partners on the ground who facilitate animal encounters are hand-picked and constantly reviewed based on feedback from our clients and our own regular travels.
Walking safaris are one of the most sought after activities in Africa and are perfect for travellers who wish to discover the excitement of true African wilderness. A walking safari is a highly immersive method that brings about a new way of understanding your surroundings.
This tour offers a unique blend of ‘lodge’ and ‘tented’ accommodation and the perfect balance of game drives and guided bush walks. Spending a night in a tree-house also adds new meaning to a safari in Africa with a location that promises a magical sunset, dinner under the stars, and profound calls from the African bush.
