Unforgettable Uganda 🇺🇬 🦍 🐾

Affectionately referred to as 'the Pearl of Africa,' Uganda is home to some of the continent's most captivating landscapes and incredible natural beauty. Its varied ecosystems support incredible wildlife, including savanna-adapted animals and even tree-climbing lions in Queen Elizabeth National Park, gentle mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, and chimpanzees in Kibale and Kyambura Gorge.

Have you had the privilege of visiting Uganda?

Did you know that yesterday was World Wetlands Day?

Wetlands are essential ecosystems that support a wealth of plant and animal life, and even purify water and can prevent floods.

The Okavango Delta in Botswana is one of Africa's most famous wetlands, but there are many more of these essential ecosystems throughout the continent.

Happy World Zebra Day! 🤍🖤🦓

Did you know there are 3 different zebra species? Plains zebra, pictured here, are the most common and can be found in the grasslands of southern and eastern Africa. Grevy's zebra inhabit the dry regions of Kenya and Ethiopia, while the mountain zebra lives in hilly terrain throughout Namibia, Angola, and South Africa.

How many giraffe species have you seen?

We are SO thrilled that Gorongosa Safaris is now a part of the Classic Portfolio collection 🇲🇿 🐾

Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique is one of Africa's most remarkable conservation success stories, having been returned to its former glory after years of civil war ravaged the land.

Gorongosa is a global biodiversity hotspot, with over 100 000 large animals calling it home, and we cannot wait to send guests to experience this phenomenal wild space!

One of our favorite experiences available in Africa is a honeymoon safari 🤍🥂

With untamed wilderness, dramatic wildlife sightings, and plentiful opportunities to dine under the stars, we think Africa is without a doubt one of the most romantic destinations on earth.

Would you consider honeymooning in Africa?

Last year, during his visit to Kwandwe, Shaun had the privilege of taking part in one of their rhino conservation safaris 🦏 🇿🇦

This conservation experience allows visitors to take part in the darting and notching program that Kwandwe operates. Each young rhino has to be ear-notched and DNA sampled before it leaves its mother. Adult rhinos in the reserve are fitted with a state-of-the-art solar-powered ankle collar that feeds information to the conservation team on the movement, stress levels and behavior of the rhinos. This new tool is invaluable for conservation, and can only be fitted while the rhino is sedated, making it a great opportunity to involve guests.

We cannot recommend this unforgettable experience enough!

Beautiful Botswana 🌍 🐾 🇧🇼

Nestled between Namibia, South Africa, and Zimbabwe, Botswana is one of Africa's most exclusive safari destinations, famous for its enormous private concessions, phenomenal wildlife sightings, and incredible variety of landscapes! 🤩

In Botswana, visitors can experience dry, desolate salt pans, waterways teeming with life, and vast concessions with huge herds of buffalo and elephants.

Some of our favorite experiences in Botswana include helicopter safaris, habituated meerkat encounters, horse-riding safaris, walks with the San Bushmen, and mokoro rides.

Have you visited Botswana? 🐘 🇧🇼

Since our inception, Stanley Safaris has been dedicated to donating 15 USD per guest who travels with us each year to a community or conservation project we feel strongly about.

Bhongolethu Foundation in South Africa aims to provide learning opportunities to people of all ages and backgrounds, helping them to reach their full potential.

The Ol Lentille Foundation in Northern Kenya helps improve education availability for children in the area, especially girls. Our donation will go towards bursaries for children in the surrounding villages.

The Kalepo Foundation, also in Northern Kenya, provides medical assistance in this remote area while strengthening conservation initiatives between local people and wildlife. Our donation will go towards purchasing new medical trolleys and shelving for the clinic in the Kalepo community.

It is such a privilege to have the opportunity to support the incredible work that is taking place throughout Africa. Without the tireless efforts of organizations like Bhongolethu, Ol Lentille, and Kalepo, our spectacular continent would be a very different place.

Thank you to our amazing guests who take conservation seriously and opt for the small, privately owned camps and lodges that ensure your safari money stays in Africa where it belongs. We cannot wait to see what 2025 holds!

At Stanley Safaris, we love learning about the rich cultural heritage of the communities that live in the remote wild spaces where we operate.

Meet the Himba Tribe of northern Namibia. These semi-nomadic people are known for their red ochre body paint and deep-rooted traditions. Spending time with them and learning about the incredible skills it takes to survive in such an unforgiving environment is one of our favorite parts of Namibia safaris 🇳🇦☀️

Natural Selection's Hoanib Valley Camp is one of the best properties to stay at if you're interested in insightful and respectful Himba interactions.

Have you ever heard of Omo the white giraffe? 🤍 🦒

What an awesome day in Stellenbosch last week for our year-end function! 🤩 🥂

Brazzaville Sapeurs

While visiting the Republic of Congo in November, Shaun had the opportunity to spend time with several Sapeurs, members of a fascinating subculture centered in Kinshasa and Brazzaville known as La Sape. La Sape began at the beginning of the 20th century when Congolese slaves would work for second-hand suits from Belgian-French colonialists. It was a social commentary on taking control of their destinies, with sapeurs using the movement as an escape from the mundane, which became inspiring to their communities. In the 1970s, La Sape is a fashion movement that still inspires many people and resonates with young and old. Have you seen the Sapeurs of Brazzaville? #StanleySafaris #LuxurySafari #Brazzaville #LaSape
