Join Africa Collection to create wonderful experiences in Africa & The Indian Ocean. If we don't know it, then maybe it's not worth knowing!

We have been dealing with South Africa as a tourist destination since prior to the majority-rule government of 1995, when only a handful of tour operators in the UK were selling the country. We have seen the product develop, and visitor numbers increase from the hundreds, to hundreds of thousands. Throughout this process we have been building relationships and refining our offering, to a point whe

re we don't believe our knowledge, contacts and expertise can be bettered. Similarly we have been dealing in Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, Mauritius and the Seychelles for 20+ years. We have been part of the growth of these countries as tourist destinations, and again we have developed relationships and expertise that enable us to offer a peerless service and knowledge. In East Africa (Kenya & Tanzania) and Central East Africa (Malawi, Rwanda, Uganda) we work with some of the most experienced operations on the ground in each country, bringing with them a wealth of experience.

If you're looking for a truly unique way to experience a safari, consider the Okavango Delta. Lush, winding waterways are explored in mokoros, allowing you to be up close and immersed in the incredible nature around you. At Camp Okavango, you can be close to nature day and night, with their sleep out deck under the stars. Spend the night surrounded by the sounds of the bush all around, from the comfort of your bed. Days can be spent floating along the waterways, walking through the bush with one of the lodge's expert guides, or game spotting from the comfort of the lodge. To see the Okavango Delta in all it's glory, take a helicopter flight and marvel at the wonders of mother nature.

Combine your stay at Camp Okavango with even more safari regions in Botswana, or other destinations in Africa. Cape Town, Victoria Falls or a white sand beach on an Indian Ocean island all pair perfectly with the thrill of a safari.

🌿 Ready to lose yourself in the magic of the Delta? Camp Okavango is waiting. Contact our team for your tailor made quote to Camp Okavango today, to plan your next holiday of a lifetime. Call on 01403 256655 or email [email protected].
