ELEVATING THE ART OF LUXURY ADVENTURE
PROFOUNDLY LIFE-CHANGING

beyond the map

Adventure whispers your name, but the usual tourist trail just doesn’t cut it. We understand.

 

Years of African exploration fuel our expertise in crafting bespoke journeys that whisk you off the beaten path.

 

Imagine yourself gazing upon Africa’s landscapes untouched by mass tourism.

 

Think unwinding in a luxuriously appointed tent, traversing untouched wilderness in state-of-the-art Land Rovers, and encountering Africa’s hidden wonders.

 

Our insider knowledge unlocks experiences beyond the ordinary – from private mokoro excursions through the Okavango Delta to face-to-face encounters with gorillas and chimps.

 

Luxury is just the beginning. 

 

Led by our founder, a safari legend who started in the business in 1987, we specialize in crafting bespoke journeys that unveil Africa’s hidden gems, unlocking the true essence of Africa, and guiding you beyond the map.

About Us

MEET OUR FOUNDER:  KARIN JONES, ctc, mba

 


Inspired by PASSION, guided by a 37-year safari pro, we curate exclusive AFRICA journeys with authenticity and ARTISTRY

“Starting with that first adventure in 1987 to Botswana, South Africa and Zimbabwe…

…my life was forever altered. Africa became my passion and livelihood, but also a calling in that it has become a way that I know I can help make a difference in the world.”

As architects of African adventures, we safari planners wear many hats, and are equal parts sage trailblazers, savanna strategists, and wildlife whisperers. We’re also humble apprentices to nature’s grand theater, part strategic advisors, part bush lore educators, and always eager learners ourselves. We’re the guardians of wild aspirations and the artisans who craft windows into untamed worlds.
