Debunking Myths About Custom Safaris:

  1. Myth #1: Custom Safaris Are Expensive Not necessarily! Costs vary based on where you go and the level of luxury you choose. Our focus on affordable, tailored safaris will give you great value.
  2. Myth #2: Group Trips Are Cheaper. They can be cheaper. But they often have hidden costs or poor-quality places to stay. Custom safaris are more flexible. They can access exclusive properties not available to large tour groups.
  3. Myth #3: Custom Safaris Are Always Private: A custom safari doesn’t have to mean you’re isolated. You’ll have your own room but can choose to socialize with fellow travelers during meals and activities. Private air taxis are often used to hop between parks, minimizing long, uncomfortable drives.
