From the stunning river lodge to the powerful falls, he’s putting together an itinerary that you won't want to miss.

👑 INTRODUCING YASI – OUR SOCIAL MEDIA QUEEN!👑

Ever wondered who’s behind our social posts? Meet Yasi, the woman with the eagle eye, the creative flair and the very important job of making sure you get to see the best of our safari adventures! 🐘🦁📸

Yasi diligently trawls through all the amazing photos our guests share, hunting down those absolute gems – the spectacular sunsets, unforgettable wildlife encounters, funny moments and "OMG, look what we saw!” shots.

Then comes the magic ✨ She finds the perfect photos, dreams up a snazzy caption and turns it into a post for all of you to enjoy.

Thanks, Yasi, for keeping our social media looking wild! 🐾❤️

Don’t just take our word for it. Take theirs. 🗣️

From “Fantastic” to “Epic,” the reviews are in. Our Southern Africa safari with The Safari Company NZ is one for the books!

Cruising the Chobe River when this big girl decided to give us a piece of her mind.

That massive 150-degree jaw drop isn't just a yawn, it's a warning. And those tusks? They aren't for chewing grass, they self-sharpen and are reserved purely for settling arguments.

We kept a respectful distance. She's a good sort but we won't be asking her to join us for a morning cuppa.

Spotting a leopard is hard. Getting a crisp photo of one from a distance is even harder.

This grainy masterpiece is what you get when you mix a real wild cat with a whole lot of digital zoom. It won't win any photography awards but it’s absolute proof she's out there.

We'll take the win, if only to prove that not every incredible sighting these days is AI-generated!

No AI here, just pure, authentic safari luck.

We came for the Big Five but we stayed for the Big Cheeks.

First up in the heavyweight division, a pair of elephants giving us the ultimate slow walk-off by the water. Massive presence, incredible skin texture, a true contender. But we have a late entry stealing the show, the warthog. Or, as we have officially renamed him, "Pumbum." A true Lion King legend, strutting his furry backside with absolute confidence. Hakuna Matata, indeed.

Moving on to the contenders: the cheeky baboon, flashing those pink assets with zero shame. The zebra, showing off bold stripes that totally fail as camouflage from the rear. And the ostrich, strutting down the dirt road with an absolute unit of a tail feather.

Even the local birdlife is bringing the glamour, looking absolutely fabulous against the blue sky.

May the best bum win!

You're never guaranteed to see anything on safari but we went out with a bit of Kiwi optimism anyway. You chuck on your jandals, give it the old "she'll be right," and keep your eyes peeled.

And look! We finally spotted a zebra.

Behold, the elusive Two-Legged Zebra. Just ignore the sneakers, she's a bit of a rare breed. Honestly, after a few sundowners, it's hard to tell the difference!
