  The coming together of different families and generations, on any occasion, is something to be celebrated. In our busy lives it is hard to find the time to see the people that matter most. Therefore, when we get the chance to do this in a special place other than our home towns or cities,  it can be a life changing experience! And when Ronda and Kelly reached out to us to arrange a family safari, we knew this would be

  For a first time safari traveller, many thoughts, emotions and questions run through your mind. The questions will usually be unanswered or only vaguely understood. You may have some preconceived ideas of the things you might see or the type of experience you are likely to have, however, this is rarely the case.

For us, there is no better way to share our experiences than through the imagery we are fortunate enough to capture whilst on safari with our guests. Our goal is to portray an experience that resembles the moment, as closely as we can. If you shared any of these moments with us, we hope they bring back some of the fondest memories. If you did not, then we hope they encourage you to investigate joining us on a safari soon!

2017 has been one of our most productive years at Safari Architects. We have travelled across the African continent and have provided lasting experiences for all of the guests who chose to travel with us. From the Cape to the Sabi Sands and the Timbavati. The Kalahari, the Namib and the Skeleton Coast. We have ventured over the swamps of the Okavango Delta and along the spillway of the Selinda.

There is a first time for everything. Some of these firsts are lessons, some are experiences that have the ability to change something inside of you. The way you see the simplicity of life and its beauty. Some experiences leave you in awe, without words. And some you didn’t even know you needed, but nevertheless, they affect you in a special way. To travel to Africa for the first time, has to be one of the most inspiring experiences one can

The magic of Mana Pools is something that has been documented on many occasions. By the seasoned traveller, the professional photographer, a bush loving family and the intrepid explorer. Each time I read about this place, I am able to relive my memories of Mana. It is easy to reminisce of the colours of the forest, the blue haze that is now known so well. Each image I see from Mana Pools takes me right back into the moments where I

Through the planets own shear will it was created. With her internal forces of molten magma, subterranean quakes and constantly changing crusts, this unique paradise was formed. In Northern Botswana mother earth's crust twisted, shifted and subsided, and the rivers that flowed over this area were diverted and channeled in a
