Private Safaris

Safaris are rather exclusive experiences, and unlike large hotels and resorts, all safari camps and lodges that we utilize at Your Private Africa are small with fewer rooms. Therefore, this itinerary guarantees living in absolute luxury and seeing an incredible amount of wildlife. 

This itinerary commences at a private homestead in the Kalahari. The desert reveals its most rare and endangered wildlife, including chances of seeing meerkats, black rhinos, brown hyenas, sable, roan, and much more. South Africa’s first Michelin-star chef established a restaurant at this lodge, and it’s untamed, untouched, unspoiled, and celebrates all things simple. 

Next, you’ll continue to South Africa’s Kruger National Park. One of Africa’s largest game reserves and home to Africa’s Big 5: lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants, and buffalos. You’ll have a great chance to see leopards, lions, and other large carnivores. Mountains, bush plains, and tropical forests are all part of the landscape. Here you’ll be based at your own modern private villa inside the iconic Sabi Sand Game Reserve. 

Finally, you’ll end with a private villa in the heart of South Africa’s “Zululand,” in the northeastern section of the present-day KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. Here you’ll track the Big Five wildlife on foot and in 4×4 vehicles. If you want and love to dip in the ocean – a day excursion to the warm waters of the Indian Ocean can also be organized.

Not only are private tours more intimate, but they are also a more exclusive and connected way to experience Africa. 

This activity-focused Kenya and Tanzania itinerary is sure to keep you curious and excited every step of the way. You’ll be staying in one country – which makes this option logistically easy and optimizes time to do more on your trip. 

Experience Northern Kenya, where the cultures are as diverse as the wildlife and habitats. This area is said to be one of Africa’s last true wilderness areas. You can expect to see unique landscapes, incredible species, and diverse cultures with sights, sounds, and sceneries of unmatched beauty.

You’ll explore the incredible density of wildlife and wide-open spaces of the Masai Mara Game Reserve – situated in the southwest of Kenya.  A Masai Mara safari delivers many attractions, as the reserve is home to an incredible year-round concentration of wildlife, including the more than two million wildebeest, zebras, and other herbivores that make up the famous Great Migration. 

You’ll be based at your own private family villa in each location which offers the luxury of your own secluded, exclusive space, ultimate amenities, and flexibility. Private villas in remote African destinations have made multi-generational family travel more accessible.

You have your own exclusive-use private camps in Southern Africa’s most epic safari destinations in each destination. 

Your first destination and private camp backs up against the great escarpment in the Namib Desert and boasts seasonal natural water pools and falls, making it a magnet for the game moving through the area. Here you’ll be in the good hands of a renowned gourmet chef, be able to go mountain biking, ballooning, and climb Namibia’s tallest sand dune. A scenic flight over a shipwreck on Namibia’s Skeleton Coast is also on the list. 

Next, you’ll continue to an immense private conservancy, set in one of the most pristine wilderness areas left on our planet. The camp rests on the banks of Botswana’s Selinda Spillway as it enters the Linyanti River. The area has a sense of remoteness, offering the perfect safari experience in Botswana. On a boat on the Linyanti River, you can look out for hippos and crocodiles and track cheetahs, leopards, and lions in the massive 300 000 acres of private conservancy. 

Next you’ll settle into an ultra-luxe intimate and iconic safari camp nestled under a canopy of large trees, on the other side of Chief’s Island, sited in the Okavango Delta’s renowned Moremi Game Reserve. Here you can enjoy 4×4 game drives in Moremi National Park in the heart of Botswana’s Okavango Delta, the jewel of the Kalahari. Leopards, lions, rhinos, wild dogs, and more can be found in this exciting concession.
