✦ Start Planning
Let's design your Africa
Tell us a little about the journey you're dreaming of — and a specialist will reply within 24 hours with first ideas. No templates, no obligation.
✦ Your Enquiry
Begin your bespoke journey
A few details are all we need to start. The more you share, the sharper our first draft — but nothing here is required beyond a name and an email.
Prefer to talk it through? We're happy to plan over a call — just leave your number and a good time.
✦ What Happens Next
From first note to first sunrise
No call centres, no pressure. Just one specialist who knows the ground, shaping a journey that's entirely yours.
We read every word
Your enquiry lands with a real specialist — not a queue. We take in what matters to you before we reach for a map.
We design your draft
Within 24 hours you'll have first ideas: a route, the camps we'd choose for you, and an honest sense of cost.
We refine together
We tune the itinerary until it feels right — pace, lodges, private guiding, the small touches that make the difference.
You travel, we're on call
Every detail is handled and a local team stands by throughout, so all you have to do is be present for it.
✦ Why Enquire With Us
Considered, candid, entirely yours
Enquiring costs nothing and commits you to nothing. It simply opens a conversation with people who plan East Africa for a living.
100% tailor-made
Nothing off the shelf. Every route, camp and drive is chosen for you and the way you like to travel.
No obligation
We'll plan, cost and refine as long as it takes. You only commit when the journey is exactly right.
Specialist support
One point of contact from first idea to final farewell, with a local team on the ground throughout.

✦ Before You Send
A few good questions
The things travellers most often ask us before they enquire.
How quickly will I hear back?
A specialist will reply within 24 hours, usually sooner. If your travel dates are close, let us know in your message and we'll prioritise it.
Do I need to know exactly what I want?
Not at all. Many travellers come to us with little more than a season and a sense of what they'd love to see. Shaping the rest is exactly what we do.
Is enquiring really free and without obligation?
Completely. We'll design and cost a draft itinerary at no charge and refine it with you. You only commit when the journey is exactly right.
What does a bespoke safari typically cost?
It varies with season, camps and length, but most journeys we plan begin from around $5,000 per person. Share a budget and we'll be candid about what it buys.
Can you arrange flights and gorilla permits?
Yes. Internal flights, transfers, park fees and permits — including hard-to-secure gorilla permits in Uganda and Rwanda — are all handled as part of your itinerary.
