An intimate safari experience in the heart of the Sabi Sand.

Tucked beneath a canopy of ancient trees, Dulini Moya is a small, characterful camp in the heart of South Africa’s Sabi Sand Nature Reserve. With just a handful of suites, the atmosphere is warm and personal, with thoughtful details that make the camp feel like a private retreat in the bush.

Days revolve around the wilderness. Expert guides and trackers set out in search of the Sabi Sand’s remarkable wildlife, from leopard and lion to elephant, buffalo, and abundant plains game. Back at camp, shady verandas, private plunge pools, and quiet spaces overlooking the bush offer a welcome place to slow down between drives.

It’s the kind of safari where the wildlife takes center stage, while the intimate setting and attentive hospitality make coming back to camp feel just as special.

Happy World Gorilla Day! At Hornbill, gorilla trekking is about more than the awe of seeing mountain gorillas up close—it’s about being part of their conservation story.

Once on the brink of extinction, the mountain gorilla population now numbers approximately 1,060 individuals. Each trek is made possible by the dedication of rangers and trackers, whose tireless efforts protect these critically endangered primates and the forests they depend on. Trekking permits directly support this vital work, while also providing resources to surrounding communities.

On World Gorilla Day, we honor the guardians of the gorillas and celebrate the progress that conservation has made—proof that when people and wildlife thrive together, remarkable recoveries are possible. 🦍

This week, we celebrate one of Africa’s most iconic wildlife species.

Rhinos have roamed Africa’s landscapes for millions of years, shaping the ecosystems around them as they graze and browse. Yet their future has been far less certain, with poaching and habitat loss continuing to threaten populations across the continent.

Though they face a long road ahead, conservation efforts are making a difference. From stronger protection and monitoring to breeding programs, habitat restoration, and community partnerships, the work to safeguard rhinos is ongoing—and increasingly collaborative.

For us, seeing a rhino in the wild is always a privilege. But it’s also a reminder of what is at stake, and why protecting Africa’s wildlife and the places they call home matters for generations to come. 🍃

Exceptional wildlife, without the crowds.

In the remote Lamai Wedge of northern Serengeti, wildlife viewing unfolds at an unhurried pace. With fewer properties and fewer visitors, there are moments when it’s easy to feel as though it’s just you and the wilderness.

The area is particularly special during the Great Migration, when vast herds of wildebeest and zebra move through the northern Serengeti on their journey between Tanzania and Kenya. But the wildlife viewing has something to offer year-round, with lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes, and abundant plains game all calling the region home.

For those looking to experience the Serengeti away from the busier areas, the Lamai Wedge offers a quieter perspective on one of Africa’s most iconic landscapes.

A new luxury gorilla trekking lodge has arrived in Bwindi…and the views alone make the journey worth it.

Erebero Hills is conveniently perched on the edge of Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable forest, and while the views stretch for miles, your gorilla trek is just minutes away. With a design inspired by the contours of the surrounding landscape, the lodge consists of eight luxurious suites tucked among the lush hills, all built with sustainable materials.

In between gorilla treks, guests can enjoy a cultural visit with the hunter-gatherer Batwa tribe, explore the stunning biodiversity and birdlife of the forest, take part in our reforestation project by planting a native tree species, or simply relax by the hillside pool. No matter what the days hold, the wilderness is never far. ✨

The leopards of Londolozi are legendary. ✨

Set in the Sabi Sand Nature Reserve, Londolozi has long been renowned for its exceptional sightings of this elusive cat. Guests might spot leopards moving through the riverine forests and open grasslands—resting in the branches, patrolling their territories, or quietly tracking prey beneath the cover of the bush.

For photographers, guides, and wildlife enthusiasts alike, the opportunity to spend time observing a leopard in the wild is one of safari’s great privileges. And with each individual carrying its own markings, habits, and story, no two sightings are ever quite the same.

It’s this combination of remarkable wildlife and expert guiding that has made Londolozi one of Southern Africa’s most celebrated destinations for leopard viewing.

A celebration of new life, and of what conservation can achieve. 🍃

This past weekend, Rwanda celebrated the 21st Kwita Izina, its annual gorilla naming ceremony, with 22 baby mountain gorillas receiving names at the foothills of Volcanoes National Park.

Kwita Izina is rooted in a centuries-old Rwandan tradition of naming newborns, but today it represents something much larger: a celebration of the people, partnerships, and long-term commitment behind the protection of Rwanda’s mountain gorillas.

More than 600 mountain gorillas now live in the Virunga Massif, part of a wider population of more than 1,060 across the Virunga and Bwindi ecosystems. Mountain gorillas remain the only great ape whose population is increasing—a remarkable conservation achievement built over decades.

This year’s theme, "Conservation is Life: Sustaining the Future," is a fitting reminder that protecting wildlife means protecting the forests, ecosystems, and communities that make their survival possible.

We’re proud to see Rwanda continue to lead by example—and to share in the joy of celebrating 22 new additions to the story.

Chimpanzee trekking is a lively affair in Kibale Forest National Park.

Hiking into the forest, the air fills with distant calls and rustling leaves as troops move through the canopy above. Guided by expert trackers, you follow their sounds and signs through lush forest trails until you come face to face with our closest relatives.

Chimpanzees swing through the trees, groom one another, and communicate with remarkable energy, offering a dynamic and wildly engaging encounter.

Known as the primate capital of the world, Kibale Forest National Park delivers an unforgettable window into forest life—and a trekking experience that is as spirited as it is meaningful.

These Hornbill travelers recently had the opportunity to meet Najin and Fatu, the last two northern white rhinos on Earth.

Meeting them in person at Ol Pejeta Conservancy is a rare privilege…and a powerful reminder of why conservation-driven travel matters. 🦏🌍
