How hard can it be to plan a vacation to Africa? Clearly, difficult as stats show that most people outside of Africa who try to DIY never quite make it. The why is simple: the soul of Africa lives in its nuances. Its on-the-ground know-how that can’t be stitched together by AI. And when an 8-night trip can range from $8,000 per person, you want every moment to be intentional and filled with pinch-me-quick moments.
As one of the few African-based travel specialists, I bring over 30 years of experience crafting tailormade journeys for discerning travelers.
"I believe that if you live an ordinary life, you tell ordinary stories. Live a life full of adventure and your life story becomes extraordinary."
We go anywhere in Africa as our name suggests, but we've placed our most popular routings below. Browse them all and remember that your dream African itinerary always begins with a real conversation, not an AI-generated plan. If you’re shopping for quick comparisons, we’re not the right fit and we wish you all the best. But If you’re after something unique to you, we'd love to meet.
We’re not in the business of reference numbers. We’re a small, dedicated team that works closely with you to create a personal, one-of-a-kind experience that simply can’t be replicated. That’s why we follow these steps with every new - and even returning - client:
It starts with a call with myself, Kirsty Gordon, from our Cape Town office.
Myself and the team put together some “routing ideas” for your trip. Rest assured, you’ll be dealing with me exclusively from start to finish, as I firmly believe in our relationship as the core of your great journey.
Once your ideal routing and budget is secured, the planning begins via email or another call.
Happy with the proposal? A 35% advanced payment secures your booking, with the balance due 60 days prior to travel.
*If your trip includes gorilla trekking or internal flights, full payment is required for those specific items.
Living on the continent and traveling frequently, myself and the Anywhere in Africa Safaris team have an unparalleled knowledge of Africa, enabling us to create journeys that are simply unavailable anywhere else.
No, we do not charge a service fee.
We only work with establishments we have personally tried-and-tested, and ones we feel comfortable sending our very own family to. We also only work with lodges, individuals and organizations that are ethical, sustainable and improve the lives of surrounding communities and wildlife. We feel very strongly about this and have seen firsthand the role of tourism in protecting and promoting the wildlife, communities and future of Africa.
We specialize in bespoke safari vacations you won’t find on Google. Every journey begins with an obligation-free call to find out your needs, budget, interests and if we'd be the right fit for you. After that we craft an itinerary that reflects exactly what you’re dreaming of.
Because we focus on luxury travel, our safaris, honeymoons, and Indian Ocean island escapes typically range from $1,000 to $5,000 per person per night. Each experience is meticulously planned, deeply personal, and designed to be unforgettable.
Yes, it is possible - but these are some important considerations to keep in mind:
