This buffalo and his feathered “friends” are a great example of teamwork in the animal kingdom!

Birds like oxpeckers (in the first photo) perch on the buffalo to feed on ticks and parasites, giving the buffalo a free grooming session while the birds get a meal. It’s a win-win situation!

With his loyal sidekicks on board, the buffalo looks like he’s hosting a party—proving that even in the wild, everyone needs a little help from their friends.

Don't miss out on the experience of a lifetime! Reserve your spot on our safari now and be part of nature's grand spectacle.

Did you know that the Tawny Eagle is known for its keen eyesight and powerful hunting abilities?

This apex predator plays a vital role in the circle of life, keeping ecosystems balanced by controlling populations of small mammals, birds, and reptiles.

As a scavenger, it also aids in cleaning up the environment by feeding on carrion.

Ready to see this impressive bird in the wild? Join us on safari!

“You cannot leave Africa.” Africa said. “It is always with you, there inside your head. Our rivers run in currents in the swirl of your thumbprints; our drumbeats counting out your pulse; our coastline, the silhouette of your soul”. – Bridge Dore

Did you know giraffes have the longest necks of any animal, but only seven neck vertebrae - just like us humans? 🦒

Their necks are perfect for reaching high branches and keeping an eye out for predators.

Discover the dazzling avian gem of the African skies, the Lilac-Breasted Roller!

With its vibrant plumage of lilac, blue, and green, this small but striking bird is a favorite among birdwatchers and photographers alike.

Found in savannas and woodlands across sub-Saharan Africa, these rollers add a splash of color to their natural habitat and remind us of the beauty and diversity of African birdlife.

Wonderful article written by our lovely guest Angela about the Sababu experience and how it can shift your perspective. Thank you Angela!

His tiny hand hung in the air, waiting for my high-five. Around us, the Tanzanian sun painted long shadows across the red earth of the Maasai village, where children’s laughter echoed off mud-and-stick homes and the air smelled sweet with acacia wood smoke from the fire.

In this modern age, perhaps the greatest indulgence while on safari is the luxury of serenity.

Choosing to embark on a luxury safari means you don’t have to worry about anything—your safari operator, camp staff, and guides take care of all the logistics, so you can unwind and focus on being immersed in the natural world, far from your daily routine.

Aside from stress-free planning and ex*****on, your brain will have a rest from the over-stimulation typical of our 21st-century lives.
Listen to the birds, rustling grass, and hippos snorting in the distance instead of your alarm clock buzzing or planes overhead; relax on the deck as buffalo and wildebeest graze nearby instead of sitting in traffic on your commute; sleep with a cool breeze of fresh air wafting through the canvas instead of inhaling city pollution; enjoy dawn’s stillness during sunrise instead of rushing out the door; and close out the day sitting by a crackling fire under a canopy of stars instead of cleaning up after dinner.

Are you ready to finally go on the safari you’ve always dreamed of?
