Destinations

From the lions of the Maasai Mara in Kenya to the vast desert plains of Namibia, Africa offers an array of different safari experiences.

Safari is a Swahili word meaning 'to make a journey'. Today's safaris still retain that sense of discovery and adventure but the emphasis is on conservation rather than hunting, on shooting photographs rather than returning with trophies to hang on the wall at home.
