Private safaris for groups
Africa Group Safaris
Organise a group safari and travel free
In every group of 16, the 16th place is free, reserved first for the organiser, team leader or agent. We plan private, customised safaris in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Botswana and Namibia for families, friends, clubs and companies.
Who are you travelling with?
Every group is different. Pick the one that sounds like yours and we will shape the safari around it.
Families
Multi-generation trips with family rooms and child-friendly lodges, and game drives paced for younger and older travellers alike.
Friends
Milestone birthdays, anniversaries and reunions. Celebrate together with the safari vehicle all to yourselves.
Clubs & Communities
Birding, photography, wildlife, alumni and faith groups. We build the route around the interest you share.
Companies
Incentive trips, leadership retreats and client hospitality for teams flying in from overseas, with one planner for the whole group.
Not sure which is right for your group?

How do you want to travel with your group?
There are no public tours or fixed departures. Every option is private: your group travels on its own, on your dates, with no strangers in the vehicle.

Why groups travel with us
Good reasons to bring everyone together on one private safari.
Organiser travels free
In every group of 16, the 16th place is free, reserved first for the organiser, team leader or agent. A group of 32 gets two.
Lower cost per person
Vehicles and guides are shared across the group, so the price per person drops as numbers grow.
Private vehicles & guides
Safari vehicles used only by your group. Larger groups travel in several vehicles, each with its own guide.
Pay separately
Each traveller can pay their own share, so the organiser does not have to collect money from everyone.
Split arrivals handled
Arrive on different flights. Everyone spends the first night at one hotel so the safari starts together, and the group shares a final night at the end.
Six countries, one team
Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Botswana and Namibia, planned by one team in Nairobi.

Group Safari FAQs
Quick answers to the questions group organisers ask most.
How many people make a group?
Any group travelling together, from a few friends or one family to a large club or company. Larger groups travel in several vehicles, each with its own guide.
Is a group safari cheaper per person?
Usually, yes. Vehicles and guides are shared, so the cost per person falls as numbers grow. Lodge rates depend on the room mix and the season. On top of that, in every group of 16 the 16th place is free.
How far ahead should a group book?
Six to twelve months ahead is ideal, especially for the Great Migration, the festive period and gorilla trekking, when permits and rooms sell out first.
Will we share our vehicle with other travellers?
No. Every safari is private and customised, with no fixed departures or public group tours, so your vehicles and guides are for your group only.
Can we combine more than one country?
Yes. Popular pairings are Kenya with Tanzania, and Uganda with Rwanda for gorillas. We plan safaris in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Botswana and Namibia, so one team can handle the whole route.
Can travellers arrive on different flights?
Yes. Travellers can arrive on different flights. Everyone spends the first night at one common hotel in the starting city, so the safari starts together, and the group shares a final night together at the end.
Can each traveller pay separately?
Yes. Each traveller can pay their own share separately, so the organiser does not have to collect payments for the whole group.
Does the organiser travel free?
Yes. In every group of 16, the 16th place is free. It is reserved first for the organiser, team leader or agent. A group of 32 gets two free places.
I am a travel agent. Can I book for my clients?
Yes. See our B2B programme for travel agents for agent rates and how to book.
