We're a specialist safari consultancy with an administrative and consultancy head office based in the United Kingdom and secondary satellite offices in the Zambezi and Luangwa Valleys. We concentrate on supporting a selection of owner-run safari operations in Southern and East Africa.
 
The company was registered in 1995 based in Kariba Town on the shores of Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe. The company migrated its adminstrative offices to the UK in 2000 but retains consulting and ground handling staff in the Zambezi and Luangwa Valley's.
 
Our first web site was launched in 1995 and took over the marketing, sales and administrative functions of two safari operations. We were the first tour operator in Zimbabwe to offer consumers direct access to operators via the Internet. Our focus since then has been on marketing and selling safaris as tour operators and agents - day to day safari operations are left strictly to the safari operators themselves.
 
We are well supported on the internet through a technical partnership in Cape Town. The company is a registered UK Company [Registered Offices: Cobourg House, Mayflower Street, Plymouth, Devon, PL1 1LG United Kingdom] with membership and Professional Indemnity, public and product liability insurance through The Travel Trust Association, UK (Membership No: R9717)
 
What do we do?

Our core business is safari marketing, consulting and sales. Quite simply we focus on planning and arranging tailor-made safaris in Africa for independent travellers and small groups.
 
We earn our daily bread through commissions on the safaris that we sell.
 
We act as wholesalers to a modest number of very competent agents in North America, Australia and Europe.
