Luxury Adventure Safaris
to Africa's Iconic Destinations
At Safari365, we understand that selecting the perfect tour operator can be overwhelming. We believe that what truly sets us apart is our commitment to excellence across all aspects of our service. Through our pillars of excellence—deep local knowledge, dedicated customer care, unwavering quality, financial security and a strong commitment to sustainability—we offer a distinctive and memorable experience that goes beyond the ordinary.
As the developed world becomes ever more crowded and our lives more fast-paced, we recognize the undeniable need for the peace and tranquillity offered by the natural world. The yearning of our souls to be awakened and the space to breathe – the African safari dream.
Safari365 was born out of a deep passion for Africa and our desire to share Africa with the world. It is our belief that Africa is unparalleled to any other continent on earth and that tourism is the one great hope for sustaining our wilderness and developing communities most in need.
We welcome you to Africa and hope that your adventure will allow you to see this continent in all its natural glory – the many facets of Africa made up of its incredible wildlife, sensational scenery, cultural diversity, warmth and hospitality. Below are a few good reasons why we believe you should entrust your next safari holiday to us.

Why You Should Choose
Safari365
Big Enough to Count, Small Enough to Care
At Safari365, our size is our strength. We’re a boutique firm that channels our passion into creating highly personalised safari experiences. Our commitment to individual attention ensures that every journey we craft is unique, reflecting our travellers’ individual tastes and expectations. We invite you to explore our team’s dedication and read firsthand accounts from our clients to see the difference personal care makes in every adventure.
Your Safety First
We are on the ground in Africa. We live and breathe the continent daily. By booking through us, you can access our local knowledge and our 24/7 emergency call facility. Your safe and incredible safari holiday experience is our first priority.
Africa-based, Global Presence
We are with you every step of the way and on the ground when it counts (when you are actually travelling). Our head office is based in Cape Town (South Africa), and an operations office is run in Arusha (Tanzania) for end-to-end service of our Southern and East African itineraries. We also run sales offices in the United States, Brazil, and Australia, which allows us to assist you in multiple languages and time zones. Contact us for full office details.
Best Rate Guaranteed
In the unlikely event that you find a cheaper ‘like-for-like’ quotation from a competitor before booking, and furnish Safari365 with a copy of that complete quotation, we will match that quotation price.
Integrity and Reputation
We understand how daunting it can be to spend money with an internationally based business. We have been operating exclusively in Africa for almost 20 years, and our track record attests to accountability and honesty. Verify Safari365 on TripAdvisor or read our reviews page for feedback from clients who have travelled with us before.
Expert Travel Planning
Having personally visited almost every camp or lodge in Southern and East Africa, our travel experts will never sell an ‘off the shelf’ holiday. We tailor-make every itinerary from scratch. We listen to your travel dreams, then craft the best itinerary possible. No obligation, no additional cost to you.
Your Financial Security, Our Insurance
We are bonded with SATSA (underwritten by Lloyds of London), which means that your holiday investment is secure with us. We also carry SATIB General Liability Insurance up to ZAR 50mil (US$4 mil) and Professional Indemnity Insurance. We have the right affiliations and insurance to guarantee your peace of mind.
The Small Touches
We understand that the small touches make the experience. Be it our longstanding relationships in Africa, which allow us to uncover local secrets beyond the reach of the ordinary traveller, or the fact that your dedicated travel consultant is on standby throughout the booking and travelling process, these differences will make your experience.
Our Tourism Partners
We have preferential relationships with over 700 African travel partners, offering various safari lodges, hotels, charter flights and airlines, guiding and transfer services, boats, helicopters and everything in between. We remain objective and match your holiday requirements with the best possible option.
