Length of a safari – How long are your safaris?

All our safaris are custom designed, so they vary in length. We usually recommend about 2 weeks in Africa as a good length of time. You would see lots of different places, scenery and habitats, and stay in about 5 or 6 different accommodations, but it would not be too rushed, so you should get a good immersion in the African bush. People travelling from Europe to Africa have a shorter journey and less time change, so little or no time is required for “entry” into the bush. In that case 10 days is still good for Europeans.

A short safari can be 8 or 10 days (3 or 4 different accommodations), and can also be a fantastic experience. Some people come on a three week safari, see more places, become more overawed by the African bush experience, and still have lots left to do by the end!
