When you think of a safari in Zimbabwe, images of

When you think of a safari in Zimbabwe, images of the "Big 5" come to mind, but let's not forget the charm of the "Ugly 5!"
Meet the warthog, with its big tusks and scruffy hair, reminding us that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Then there's the marabou stork, that tall bird with a bald head, stealing the show with its scavenger charm.
The hyena, known for its laugh, has a quirky grin that's hard to forget. And don’t miss the aardvark, the awkward nocturnal creature, plus the vulture, nature's clean-up crew with its unique style.

Embrace the beauty of the wild in all its delightful forms!

Discover the breathtaking beauty of Southern and E

Discover the breathtaking beauty of Southern and East Africa through its captivating seasons!

Southern Africa – Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana, and South Africa
The seasons are ever-changing, but we experience a gorgeous emerald season, a wonderful shoulder season, and the peak winter safari travel time.

Emerald Season (January – April): During this time, wildlife gives birth to their young, offering a superb opportunity to see adorable babies frolicking about! The dramatic skies painted in deep purples and blues contrast beautifully with the lush greenery of the grasslands.

Shoulder Season (April, May, and part of June; also late November): This lovely transitional period balances heat and cold, youth and age, rain and dryness, featuring the movement of wildlife on their ancient journeys toward water. It’s an excellent time to enjoy favorable rates and pleasant weather!

Peak Season (July – September): This is our winter season, traditionally considered the best time for photographic opportunities and the most wildlife movement.

Remember, Cape Town operates on its own schedule. Located much further south, it enjoys its best weather during the emerald season, making January to May a perfect time for wine tasting, city exploring, beach outings, and enjoying the vibrant culinary scene.

East Africa – Kenya and Tanzania
Wildlife can be seen year-round in East Africa! The seasons have little impact on the abundance of wildlife here. While the migration occurs from July to October, it can become overcrowded with tourists. We recommend traveling during off-peak times when the wildlife is just as extraordinary but with far fewer crowds.

Keep in mind that when planning to see gorillas, there’s a window from late January to February that works well, as well as June to late September. Always consider this if you wish to experience both wildlife and primates.

Whether exploring the stunning landscapes of Southern Africa or the wildlife-rich savannas of East Africa, each journey offers unforgettable experiences waiting to be discovered.
