EXPLORE's Custom African Safari Form

Luxury in the African Wilderness

South Africa is a land of remarkable diversity and undoubtedly provides the highest standards in lodging, food and comfort.  "South Africa at its Best" gives the discriminating traveler a wonderful overview of South Africa's most beautiful wilderness areas and world-class game in the Sabi Sand, Kruger National Park and other incredible game reserves as well as the world-renowned Cape and chic Cape Town, the Garden Route, World Heritage Sites and everything in between in ultimate luxury and style.  There’s no longer any need to “rough it” while on safari with 4 and 5 star accommodations, private and personalized service, gourmet meals, spas and stylish modern furnishings.

Your Own Private Africa

"Up until a few years ago, there were very few good private lodging options in Africa, apart from the odd home on an old ranch rented out so the owners could earn some extra money," says Cherri Briggs, founder of EXPLORE. Now, adjusting to a boom in demand, more and more villas, camps and lodges can be exclusively (privately) booked ensuring clients both a dedicated army of attendants at their service- often including a private butler, chef, ranger, and guide - and a unique experience with freedom from pith-helmeted crowds.

Educational Group Safaris

EXPLORE's educational safaris with Road Scholar offer the opportunity to travel in a small group with other adults who want to experience  and learn about Africa's history, culture and wildlife. You do not need a limitless budget to enjoy a top-quality safari with a private guide and personalized service on our programs in South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Namibia. Witness the “Big Five” in national parks and game reserves including: Kruger, Chobe, Etosha, South Luangwa, Moremi and the Okavango Delta. Visit the majestic Victoria Falls; take stunning photos along the Garden Route and Cape Town; or learn about apartheid history in Johannesburg. An unforgettable experience awaits!  &;nbsp;
