Met and exceeded every expectation!
5/5

After three amazing weeks we are on our way home sitting in the London airport lounge trying to wrap our hearts and brains around all the adventures and encounters we experienced every day of the itinerary you planned for us. My sister and I had an incredible journey with brilliant guides and truly miraculous astounding encounters. Every place ended up being our favorite. Each was so distinct and presented unique and completely unexpected memories. We feel like we’re waking up from a dream. Not sure how to adequately say thank you except to say we look forward to working with you again in the future!

Samburu and matemwe
5/5

After some trepidation we agreed to take Rose's advice and went to Saruni samburu for our first ever safari and a much needed holiday, we were right to trust her knowledge as the lodge offered the perfect mix of wild remote game viewing and luxury. We followed it with a week at matemwe on Zanzibar which was also heaven.

exhilaration, discovery, and addiction
5/5

Rose gave us exactly what we wanted - mobile camping with an expert guide whose enthusiasm and knowledge were unbounded. We were certain we did not want to share " camp" guides with guests who wanted luxury or service : it was 100% about being in the wilderness and getting close to animals and birds and learning about their behaviour. We had the most thrilling time and loved every moment: amazing game drives, a fabulous guide to ourselves, and the joy of camping in the wild ( with a charming team to look after us). We thought this was our last safari but it is just too addictive......

Outstanding Luxurious Safari and Beach Honeymoon
5/5

My wife and I just came back from our honeymoon, consisting of 2 nights in a Rhino conservancy in Lewa followed by 3 nights in the Masai Mara before finishing on the white sandy beache of a private island in Zanzibar. You know when some people just know what you want and you don’t need to explain much, that’s the special treatment we got with the Luxury Safari Company. Everything was planned to the smallest detail and went on smoothly, no stress at all, we didn’t even feel things were planned in advance. Top notch luxury in terms of food, treats, service, accomodation, transportation.....and all without show off, truly unforgettabe experience....!

A Holiday to Remember
5/5

A truely exceptional trip, with every detail looked after and thought about. Rose recommended the perfect house within the Borana Conservancy, suiting all of the family's needs - from activities suiting young children to older teenagers, there was plenty to keep everyone occupied and entertained. Rose's service was impeccable, we were in constant communication throughout the preparation of our trip, and her support was excellent. Our stay could not have been any more perfect, so much so, we even ended up extending our stay for another week. The conservancy offers so much, from fantastic wildlife to stunning scenery, with guides ready to suit your every need whether you want to go for a ride, drive or walk.

One-of-a-kind bespoke itinerary and experience curated especially for us!
5/5

Excellent personalised experience from start to finish. The team at The Luxury Safari Company are true experts on Africa and were extremely knowledgeable, offering incredible insight and travel options across the continents many wonders.

We ended up going to the incredible Morukuru Beach Lodge for a three-night stay on the De Hoop nature and ocean reserve - a short 3.5 hours drive from Cape Town. It was the perfect place for us to unwind and reconnect in beautiful surroundings. Our Honeymoon Suite was exceptional and the eco-hotel's innovative design felt ultra-indulgent and much-needed after a year of no travel.

The dedicated team were exceptional and always on hand, ensuring we felt comfortable and well taken care of. Thank you again to Hilton, Nicholas, Kayleigh and Corné! The food was also incredible and definitely another highlight.

In terms of activities, the nature walk and drive was both educational and fun! They change every day meaning no day or experience is the same. And sandboarding was unique and extremely picturesque, boarding down the bright white dunes with the ocean in the backdrop. We also cycled across the reserve encountering zebras, ostriches, baboons and various other wildlife.

In relation to Covid, all precautions were taken by the team to ensure safe interaction between guests and staff. We even received personalised masks and sanitiser kits. Worth noting, as an intimate but spacious hotel/location, there is plenty of space to keep to yourself, if you so wish to.

We have inquired about Ocean House and plan on returning with our family later this year for whale watching season!

Rose was absolutely the most professional, efficient and thorough organizer we could have hoped for.
5/5

My husband, sister, brother-in-law and I just returned from an amazing 14 day African experience. We contacted a number of safari companies asking for a proposed itinerary and cost breakdown as we were unsure as to where we should go and what to expect. Rose Hipwood came back with the most exciting and thorough proposal of all and after reading the reviews on Luxury Safaris and Rose, we decided to go with this company.

Our trip was absolutely perfect from beginning to end. If someone was supposed to meet us, they were there. If a plane, jeep or boat was to transport us from one place to another, they were there. We had excellent accommodations at all three camps including friendly staff, delicious meals and cocktails, experienced guides and drivers.....it could not have been better.

Throughout the planning process, Rose was ALWAYS available and responsive to our questions and concerns and helped guide us through the travel challenges we were presented with due to the COVID pandemic.

We would all highly recommend Rose and Luxury Safaris to anyone interested in visiting this amazing country. We experienced fantastic adventures which provided us with memories that will last a lifetime.
