We had the best time in Africa and can't wait to go back. Working with you and the YPA team was a next level experience. My sincerest thank you. We would love for you to plan all of our trips!

YPA planned an incredible honeymoon for us in 2021. My husband is a landscape photographer and seasoned outdoor traveler, meanwhile I was looking for a little bit of luxury and romance…Nick and Ashley took that assignment and knocked it out of the park for both of us!

We were so fortunate to come across YPA. Nick and Ashley understood our vision perfectly for our 2-week honeymoon. They provided great recommendations within our budget. Their excellent communication and patience made our trip to Kenya and South Africa unforgettable.

Could one possibly see the Big 5, gorillas and whales on one trip? Yes, one can thanks to Ashley and Nick. They crafted a beautiful, well thought out, detailed and seamless itinerary that brought together the animals, geography and culture.

YPA made our honeymoon in Africa unforgettable. Both the trip and the planning process were smooth from start to finish, and we wouldn’t have changed a single detail. We felt safe and supported while on the ground in South Africa and Mozambique, and most importantly, we had a blast.

Our trip was absolutely stunning, phenomenal, and everyone left so very happy with the entire experience. We cannot express enough in words how much this meant to us; even my mom and dad (the most demanding critics) said it was PERFECT. We look forward to recommending YPA to anyone going to Africa.

We would highly recommend "Your Private Africa" to anyone looking for a once in a lifetime African adventure. Danielle and I chose YPA because of their impressive organization, consistent engagement and wealth of insight into various countries, resorts and experiences.

Your Private Africa has been the best experience for our family because of the care of the details which includes but not limited to- the properties, the people, the unique experiences – all bundled into a truly private exceptional trip.

We recently returned from Kenya and Tanzania and our trip was an absolute dream. Everyone we met along the way was wonderful and there was an impressive attention to detail throughout our journey.

Amazing adventure! We never would have been able to experience Africa like we did without Nick and Ashley's expertise and planning.

I just had to take a minute and thank you for an absolutely amazing trip. Your recommendations were all spot on. Everything went smoothly and we just had a great time. We really enjoyed our private guide.

My mind was blown away. We have immense gratitude to Ashley and Nick and the YPA team for ensuring all the details were handled seamlessly. We had the coolest guide who spots everything, and at the very end of our game drive on my birthday, he spotted the elusive leopard just before sunset. This tr

Every single logistic detail was figured out for us, and we learned early on that details matter! The places we stayed were luxurious and authentic in equal measure, and we were able to enjoy them 100% without worrying about the planning. It was the trip of a lifetime and we loved every moment.

I knew during the first introduction with Nick that booking with him would result in a trip of a lifetime. The itinerary was perfect. We started in Cape Town and spent two nights in Franschhoek (winelands) before heading off on a safari for six nights.

Nick is, without a doubt, the most amazing and knowledgeable expert on Africa travel that I could ever wish for. The trip was a VIP experience, and was beautifully planned and executed, with insightful experiences, and a variety of amazing local people we met and spent time with.

A trip to Africa is a once-in-a-lifetime investment in memories. However, African travel can be intimidating even for the most seasoned international traveler. This is where Nick truly stands alone as your personal planner, designer, and mentor all-in-one.

My family and I visited the Serengeti and we used Nick to plan our trip. He paid great attention to every detail and that careful attention showed up again and again in our 10-day trip. We loved where we stayed, and each place had something unique and different that added to our experience.
