Start with the permissions, not the camps

Walking before breakfast, a spotlight after dark, going off-road to the animal, nobody else in the sighting. Tell us the list and the land follows.

Your enquiry

What do you want to be allowed to do?

It is a more useful opening than a country, because it rules places in and out immediately. "We walk, we photograph, and we do not want to share a leopard" is a complete brief.

Our East Africa specialist replies within 24 hours with a route, the land type named for every camp, and an itemised price.

  • Every camp named, with the land it stands on
  • Fees and permits itemised rather than bundled
  • An honest note where a wish and a boundary conflict
  • No deposit to see a plan, and no obligation at any point
