FAQ
To reach the remote bush sites with the best wildlife viewing, you spend time in a specially adapted safari vehicle. Our guides never seat more than four guests per vehicle, each equipped with roof hatches, camera-charging sockets and a fridge.
Air charter typically uses Cessna 208s or 206s; our preferred helicopter operators fly Eurocopters. Flying between destinations is also a chance to see the landscape, and often wildlife, from above.

Ask us for our pre-departure information and packing list when you begin planning — we tailor it to your specific itinerary and season.
Absolutely — many guests do. Kenya is unique: an hour’s flight from the Maasai Mara and you can be watching the sun set over the Indian Ocean. Tanzania and Mozambique also offer exceptional beaches, and Cape Town offers something else entirely.
Comprehensive travel and medical insurance is required before you travel. Send us the details in advance so we can add you to our Medi-evac cover, which provides emergency airlift evacuation from remote areas.
East Africa is largely a year-round destination. January–March and June–October are drier, with wildlife gathering at waterholes; April, May and November bring seasonal rains, new life and fewer crowds.
Southern Africa is dry and cool June–September, hot and humid November–April. Niche destinations like Chad, Madagascar and Ethiopia are far more seasonal — your guide will advise on timing.
The Serengeti-Mara wildebeest migration is typically in Kenya between July and October, and in the southern Serengeti plains January–March. Zebra migrate through Botswana’s Makgadikgadi Pans December–March, and up to ten million fruit bats arrive in Zambia’s Kasanka National Park October–December.
