IS A SOLO SAFARI Right for You?

A Life Changing Experience

Is the thought of visiting Africa a daunting notion? Worried about what to do on your own?

If you’re looking to do any of these experiences then an African safari and a journey across this great continent is right for you.

MAKE TRAVEL MATTER®

Going solo is an excellent opportunity for personal growth and self-discovery. Without the distractions of traveling with others, there are plenty of ways to get to know yourself and others better.

When traveling alone, there is the freedom to set your own schedule and do things at your own pace especially on one of our custom safaris.

African Travel pledges to MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® and each safari features an experience that benefits both the guest and locall communities.

You can explore these experiences in our Sustainable Journeys guide.

Pursue A Passion

Africa is filled with very creative and engaging experts. There are various opportunities to practice photography, participate in a conservation projects to help your favorite animal, or meet specialists in African art or history and learn about a new culture. Are you interested in discovering new dishes and local drinks?

We know how to connect you with local experts who will guide you into the heart of Africa and help you learn something new.

Connect With Nature

There is ample time for silence and solitude on a safari. Spending time alone in nature is a luxury that we don’t get to indulge in often enough. Listening to the sounds of the wild and feeling the immense sense of space can be a cleansing experience. From riverside hammocks to tranquil massages, our safaris offer no shortage of peaceful spots in which to enjoy a little ‘you’ time.

You can also be as active as you want. Go on a guided walk, horseback ride by zebra grazing, run with the Maasai, or try a yoga class with stunning views.

Meet New People

Even though you are traveling alone, you are never alone on an African Travel safari. A local Guest Services team is easily reachable 24/7 via WhatsApp and mobile. Consider them your new friends.

Adventures into Africa always bring like-minded souls together, and there are plenty of ways to make meaningful connections whether it’s dining at the communal table, visiting the Samburu homestead of your safari guide, or sharing stories around a campfire.

Joining one of our Classic Collection set departures is a great way to meet new people when you travel in a small intimate group.
