Safari and Beach

Ideal for honeymooners, a safari and beach holiday combines the perfect balance of exploration, wildlife wonders and blissful downtime on powder-soft sands, allowing you to make once-in-a-lifetime memories.

Safari and beach holidays are fantastic for families too; kids will be mesmerised by the animals they’ll get to see on a game drive but will be equally enamoured with the beautiful beaches on offer – perfect for playing on.

Offering a plethora of diverse landscapes, you can craft an African holiday that takes you from untouched corners of the wilderness to rainforests teeming with wildlife, then on to picture-perfect beaches with turquoise waters. Africa really has it all, and we’ve got the travel expertise to bring your dream safari and beach holiday to life.

The Best Destinations for African Safari and Beach Holidays

There are plenty of options when it comes to choosing a destination to experience the best of Africa’s wildlife and white-sand beaches. From the rugged Kenyan coast to a Tanzanian and Madagascan adventure merging nature-rich rainforests with glistening azure waters, our experts will create the perfect bespoke holiday.

The Best Hotels and Itineraries for Safari and Beach Holidays

The best thing about a combined safari and beach holiday is that you’ll get to experience the remote wilderness of a safari from your base at a stylish campsite or lodge, as well as the stunning surroundings of a luxury beachside villa. Our travel experts will take the time to get to know you to help craft the perfect accommodation package to suit your style.
