Private and Tailor-made Safaris

Long before we gained an impressive list of operators that we run tours for, we cut our teeth running tours for private clients. We are humbled by the trust that many individuals continue to show in us, not only by letting us run their tours but by the positive and very powerful word of mouth that they give about us. We would also like to acknowledge their feedback as it has greatly helped in fine tuning the logistics of the tours.

The reasons why an increasing number of people are booking private tours are varied but top among them is to travel at a time of your convenience and with the party of your choice e.g. your walking/birding club. Another exciting part is to be involved in the creation of the itinerary, of course with our guidance, as this enables you to have a tour that is to your style and pace, e.g. you may choose to have a mixture of guided walks and birding incorporated in your tour.

Though once we agree on an itinerary we strictly like to adhere to it, a private tour gives you a lot of flexibility that can’t be conveniently exercised in a scheduled group tour. It could be in such small but important things as when to start and end the day or how long you should be in a birding site. For families and clubs, whether taking a walking and/or a birding tour, a private tour is more fulfilling as we tailor it to suit your specific needs. Consider that we run our private tours on  the same high standards that we use for our partner agents tours.  

People hesitate to book private tours for the fear that they are expensive and we would not want to use our price as a marketing pitch since we would like you to choose to travel with us on strong conviction that our style and pace of running tours is what you are looking for. However it comes as a pleasant surprise to many that the prices we quote for the private tours are very attractive even at minimum of 2 clients. Our policy of all inclusive prices and group discounts make our tours very ideal for clubs. We present you with options for paying for your tour:

A) Directly to us at the quoted tour price.
B) Through one of our agents shown in our references. In this case there will be agent’s add-ons to the quoted tour price.
C) Through your preferred agent, again there would be agent's add-ons to the quoted tour price.

We look forward to receiving your tour inquiry and remember the more info you give us, the easier it is for us to connect with your needs. The itineraries listed in this website may be a good starting point in helping to sort out the many ideas you may have. Contact us.
