Bespoke African safaris

Planet Africa is a small, boutique safari company with a big love for Africa. We craft every trip from scratch, shaped by what matters to you, and guided by the places and people we know and trust across East and Southern Africa. Whether you’re dreaming of barefoot luxury or something a little more off-the-map, we’re here to make it feel seamless, personal, and full of heart.
Planet Africa Team

Experts in Africa

Africa isn’t just where we plan safaris, it’s where we’ve lived, worked, and travelled for over 20 years. From the plains of the Serengeti to the dunes of the Skeleton Coast, the lush Okavango Delta to Cape Town, we’ve come to know the places, the people, and the little details that make a big difference.

 With team members based in Arusha, Nairobi, Kigali, and Cape Town, we’re close to the ground and always in tune with what’s happening across the continent. Whether you’re after something classic or completely off the map, we’re here to help shape a safari that feels just right, with insight, care, and creativity.

Travel & enjoy 
with a conscience

We believe a great safari doesn’t just show you the wild, it helps protect it. That’s why we work with conservation-focused lodges, choose local suppliers who care about their communities, and make small, thoughtful choices that add up. It’s about travelling lightly, respectfully, and with heart.
