It's hard not to get excited when one of your favourite Okavango Delta camps sends you pics of their latest refurb. Okuti Camp WOW!

The re-design capitalises on the breath-taking views of the river, especially from the new breakfast bar where guests can take in the heavenly views of the lagoon. The spaces both in the main area of camp and the rooms have been reconfigured and reimagined to capitalise on the breath-taking views of the Maunachira River.

This is a lovely little camp, perfect for exploring all of the delta's watery delights year round. A true oasis of serenity with a warm and down to earth feeling that makes it ideal for a family adventure!

It’s tough to beat this front-row seat to all the wildlife action!

Perched right on the rim of the stunning Ngorongoro Crater, the Lemala Osonjoi experience immerses guests in all aspects of its remarkable location in the Eastern Highlands: chilly mornings, crisp mountain air, and swirling mists enshrouding panoramic views of the crater floor below.

Here’s an artist impression of what’s to come!

Light floods in through huge windows, creating a seamless connection with the surrounding landscape while also sustainably heating the lodge’s spaces.

The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the best destinations to go on safari and see such a large concentration and variety of wildlife in one place. Osonjoi’s proximity (with views!) and direct access to the crater floor via the less-traveled Lemala access road give guests yet another privilege: being the first to arrive in the mornings and the last to leave in the evenings, when animals are most active and away from the crowds.

Be among the first to experience the quiet magic of Osonjoi Lodge in March 2025.

Gather the tribe! Our NEW favourite exclusive use villa is all about connection.... With inside and outside. With yourself... With each other.

With five suites across two houses (served by a host, chef and house staff), indigenous gardens, hiking trails, a perennial river AND only 1.5hrs from Cape Town, we think this special place combines perfectly with Lekkerwater Beach Lodge before you head off north on your safari adventure.

‘If it ain't broke don't fix it’, but that's never been Singita's style.

Their pioneering approach is precisely what has grown a single lodge offering in 1993 into 12 lodges across three African countries with a million acres under management. So it's not surprising that their flagship property Ebony Lodge – has undergone a complete re-invention with a redesign that takes 'extraordinary' up a few notches! Walls have been replaced with canvas and glass to create safari tent-style suites that maximize views and space. The front wall of each suite has been removed entirely, flooding the interiors with light. Outdoor pavilion decks, ideal for dining or relaxing in your private plunge pool, seemingly float above the riverbanks.

The heart of the lodge has been designed for guests to meet, relax, and take in the stunning views. The sitting room has been relocated to the front of the lodge, offering a serene space closer to nature.

This redesign reflects what Singita calls the ‘New Nomad’ style. Travelers looking to immerse themselves in nature while staying connected to the modern world.

We can't wait to experience this new Ebony first-hand. Ask us to include it in your Africa trip itinerary! Email us [email protected]

This is the Saddle-billed Stork, also known as the Silent Giant due its impressive size (they stand at nearly 150 cm (59 inches) tall with a wingspan of up to 2.7 m (8.9 feet), and the fact that they lack a syrinx, the vocal organ in birds. Rather than tweet, hoot, caw or coo, they communicate by noisily clattering their bills together!

This beautiful photo was taken at in Timbavati Private Game Reserve in the Greater Kruger, but we've also seen many of them in Botswana's Okavango Delta.

Dulini Moya, is set deep within the Sabi Sands — the heart of big cat country in South Africa. It's one of those lesser known, yet quietly exceptional safari lodges that weaves classic safari magic into every moment of your stay. The six thatched suites, tucked beneath ancient ebony trees, have floor to ceiling windows that flood the suites with natural light and maximize the feeling of being fully immersed in the bush. A ginormous canopy bed and a bathroom made to languish in, are among the many creature comforts you may find difficult to leave behind here. Watch the animals and birds from your private lounge and deck complete with plunge pool!

Dining at Dulini traditionally happens beneath the stars with delicious food and fine wines. Relaxed evenings inevitably end with an exchange of tales around a roaring campfire. If you're feeling motivated, there's an on-site gym too, but personally, we would opt for an indulgent massage to wind you down after the day's thrilling game drives and bush walks!

This is classic safari luxury surrounded by the magic of the African bushveld. If you love how it sounds, drop us a line to find out how we can work it into an unforgettable safari experience in Southern Africa.

This captivating photograph from Simbavati Collection beautifully captures the vivid contrast between a zebra's stripes and the bright red and yellow bill of a yellow-billed oxpecker. The bill is sturdy yet short, making it ideal for removing insects from animals like zebras. These birds can consume up to 1000 ticks or over 10,000 larvae in a single day. Not only do they feed while perched on the beautiful zebra, but they also use the plucked hair to line their nests. Known in Swahili as the Rhino's Guard, the oxpecker is alert to danger and besides providing a daily spa service to its host, its shrill call serves as an early warning system for potential threats. A win-win relationship all around!

If you want to immerse yourself in the wilderness and learn about the wild firsthand, one of the Simbavati properties is a luxurious yet back-to-basics Walking Trails Camps. Just you and your expert passionate guides, in the heart of an untamed African wildlife wonderland.

"Camille did an amazing job coordinating all details of our trip to South Africa and Zimbabwe! Our transfers were all arranged and were seamless, the air flights were all in place. Our accommodations were top notch and were in our price range. We were traveling to a different continent (US to Africa) with elderly parents and 3 kids and having everything go smooth was amazing. I would absolutely recommend working with this company."

'Seamless' is a word that pops up constantly with our guest feedback which is indicative of the level of our Africa travel experience. A seamless trip allows you to really focus on the 'Africa' travel experience. Thank you Camille - your clients are always in awe of your superb organisation!

StarryNights ✨and river safari delights!

Lise stayed at Victoria Falls River Lodge, an exquisite 5-star island-style retreat nestled along the Zambezi River, just a little way upstream from Victoria Falls.

Each private suite extends over the river and into the trees, elevated on timber decks just like a treehouse. The vibe is somewhere between tropical island and gorgeous bush retreat - the best of both worlds. Every luxury amenity you can think of is here. Soak up the views, listening to the distant thunder of the falls from your own private deck splash pool. Up on the rooftop of the Starbed Treehouses, a sitting area looks out over the incredible view, and the most romantic starbed opens to the heavens above. This is an exclusive paradise - just far enough from the falls to feel like you're miles from it all, but close enough to enjoy all the wonderful adventures waiting for you in this iconic African destination.

Highly recommended!

Can you identify any of the things we spotted?
When you first visit Africa, you will most probably arrive with a list of must sees and do's. This is totally normal. But like anywhere, it's often the things you least expect that really grab your attention. This is why we love recommending walking safaris! Even though you don't get up close to the big animals on foot, you see evidence of them wherever you look. More than this, it’s the very small things that are often the most fascinating. Like these little finds we made along the way while walking at Simbavati Trails Camp.

We'd love to hear the most fascinating thing you learnt while out in the bush?

1. Hyena p**p

2. Impala Lily - renowned for its striking appearance and adaptability to arid environments. It's dazzling blooms punctuate the dry brown bushveld in bright clusters of incongruous pink, embodying the resilience of Africa's fauna.

3. Assegai Grass or Speargrass. Another remarkable adaptation to conquer the hardy soils of the bushveld. The seed becomes a sharp spike that straightens when moistened and when doing so the ‘spear’ is capable of drilling the seed into the soil!

4. Kudu horns (Someone's leftovers no doubt!)

5. Lion tracks!

6. An abandoned nest of a very small and beautiful little bird called a blue waxbill. So very delicate, made from the lightest fluffiest grasses you can imagine. The breeding season is over and so the nest is no longer needed.

Liesl loves colour! And so the new, bold, bright and beautiful Waterside delighted her when she was invited to stay and experience this new addition to the Royal Portfolio. It’s been getting attention and winning awards too!

On arrival you step across the floating entrance bridge and into the welcoming ambience of Waterside, the warmth of the staff and the magic of the African bush. This eclectic and elegant little camp looks out over a busy waterhole fringed by striking green fever trees. Superbly located, you can watch the animals from the comfort of your magnificent suite or the fabulous deck and rim flow pool.

There are 4 x luxury suites, 2 x two-bedroom suite, and a private villa with 4 bedrooms.

Besides thrilling game drives that get you up close to the Big Five, enjoy bespoke fine dining and an amazing spa.

10/02/2023

Rushing rapids, a rugged landscape of undulating hills, rocky outcrops, and a horizon studded with the imposing silhouettes of the iconic baobab, Ruaha National Park epitomises the definition of "Wild Africa". And then there's Jongomeru... Nestled in this wild paradise, the camp looks out onto the seasonal Jongomero River, with tents raised on wooden platforms under enormous thatched roofs, sited along a natural pathway for animals in search of water.

Days at Jongomeru are effortless. The wonderful team are always on hand to pamper you and plan the day's activities so you don't have to. You might spend the day traversing the winding roads of the park, tracking the extraordinary diversity of animals, plants and birdlife here, or choose to relax at the camp, book in hand, cold drink at the ready, watching the wildlife meander by. And in the evening, after dining on Chef Juma's extraordinary creations and warming yourself around an open fire, fall asleep to the evocative sounds of the African bush, snuggled under comfy warm quilts in a bed big enough to get lost in, recalling fireside stories about life in this remote outpost.

With direct flights from Seronera twice a week – we recommend you tick off the big stuff in the Serengeti, then come here to relax, slow down and slip into a lower gear.

Barefoot luxury in Tanzania...
We recently kicked off our shoes and dipped our toes into the shimmering blue waters of this secret island getaway, and yes, FANJOVE is that white-sand island you dream about, with water that you only ever see in the movies.

Fanjove Island the smallest of six islands in the Songo Songo Archipelago, just off the coast of Tanzania, and the perfect private retreat for couples and honeymooners looking for a place where time has no pull.

Its 10 discreet beach villas are wildly romantic and feature a gorgeous fusion of Swahili, Indian, Arab and European influences. Lime washed walls, open air showers constructed from island stone, the dappled light of swishy palm leaves, thatched roofs and wafty white curtains billowing out over the shimmering blue waters, ticked every box on our 'idyllic island getaway' list.

The food is incredible. The snorkelling fabulous and the discreet staff a welcome addition to your private island dream.
