Exclusive Safari Camps & Lodges in Africa

Exclusive Properties

Private • Bespoke • Individual

 

For travellers who want complete privacy and the freedom to experience Africa entirely on their own terms, our Exclusive Safari Camps & Lodges offer a truly private safari experience. Rather than simply choosing a more luxurious property, Exclusive means having the entire camp, lodge, villa or private house reserved exclusively for your group.

​

Our collection of private safari camps and lodges in Africa is designed around flexibility, privacy and personalised service. With your own guide, safari vehicle and dedicated team, there is no need to share your safari experience with other guests. You decide when to head out, where to go, how long to stay at a wildlife sighting and how to shape each day.

​

Your own private safari camp

Our exclusive-use safari camps range from intimate tented camps in remote wilderness areas to luxurious private villas and sophisticated bush houses. Some are deliberately adventurous and under canvas, while others offer exceptional luxury, private pools, spacious living areas and beautifully appointed suites.

​

What they have in common is the feeling of having your own African safari lodge or private bush home, rather than staying in a conventional hotel. Your group has the freedom to make the property your own, with a dedicated team on hand to look after you throughout your stay.

​

Depending on the property, exclusive use can include your own private safari vehicle, specialist guide, private dining, flexible mealtimes and personalised activities. You can linger longer with elephants, follow a leopard as it moves through the bush, return to camp for a leisurely breakfast or set off early for a particular wildlife experience. The safari is shaped around you rather than a fixed schedule.

​

Private African safaris for families, friends and couples

Private safari lodges and exclusive-use camps are particularly well suited to families, groups of friends, honeymooners and milestone celebrations. Travelling together in your own camp or villa creates a relaxed and intimate atmosphere, while a private guide and vehicle allow the safari to be tailored to everyone's interests, ages and pace.

​

For families, private accommodation can make safari particularly enjoyable, offering greater flexibility around meals, activities and daily routines. For couples and honeymooners, an exclusive safari lodge provides privacy and an intimate setting for a truly memorable African escape. Groups of friends can enjoy the freedom to explore together without having to fit around other guests.

​

Exclusive doesn't always mean ultra-luxury

Our private safari camps in Africa vary considerably in style and level of comfort. Some are beautifully appointed luxury lodges with private pools and exceptional facilities, while others offer a more authentic, adventurous experience under canvas.

​

This is an important distinction within our collection: Exclusive is about privacy and personalisation rather than simply luxury. You don't have to choose the most luxurious lodge to enjoy an exclusive safari. The defining feature is having the accommodation, guide, vehicle and experience dedicated to your group.

​

That means you can combine the privacy of an exclusive-use safari camp with the style of safari you enjoy most – from adventurous walking and canoeing in remote wilderness to sophisticated game lodges with every comfort.

​

A safari built entirely around you

From private safari lodges in Africa to exclusive-use camps, villas and bush houses, our collection offers some of the most personal ways to experience the continent's extraordinary wildlife and wilderness.

​

Wake up with the bush entirely around you, spend the day exploring with your own guide and return to a private camp where everything is arranged for your group. With no other guests to accommodate, your safari can be slower, more spontaneous and entirely your own.

​

If you're looking for a private African safari, an exclusive-use safari camp for your family or friends, a private honeymoon lodge or a bespoke safari experience built around your interests, our Exclusive collection offers a different way to experience Africa – private, flexible and completely personal.
