Client Reviews
For more than 25 years, we’ve made dream African safari tours a reality for thousands of clients. Here’s what they say.
Having just returned from a three-week custom tour in South Africa that encompassed Cape Town and its surrounding areas, Grootbos, the Garden Route, Shamwari, and Durban, our group of four people highly recommends African Sky for the trip of your dreams. There is no doubt in our minds that using African Sky, a local South African company, was the best choice.
—Steve & Patricia Mitchell, Terry & Leslie Burtch, Canada
We could not have had a more perfect safari trip to South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Zambia. The planning was fun and made easy by Andrew who simply made all of our wishes a reality. Mary-Anne and Andre were stellar guides. They were knowledgeable about plants, flowers, birds and animals wherever we were. Both guides are also photographers and assisted us in getting the best views and shots along the way.

We are more than happy to recommend African Sky. We are from Australia and made our bookings with African Sky via email and telephone — excellent and very flexible. We loved our entire holiday. Kings Camp in Timbavati stands out.

I cannot fault anything. Replies were prompt and efficient and ensured all that had to be taken care of. People were waiting for us from our departure in Johannesburg to arrival at The Outpost and back. It ran very smoothly. We had nothing to worry about while using their service.

African Sky surpassed my expectations in all areas! Our two-week trip went smoothly — Kruger Park, Victoria Falls, and Matetsi are must-sees in Africa.
— Gloria Davis, USA
The pre-tour advice and booking were excellent. The Victoria Falls and Chobe tour is action-packed and full of interest. The battlefield tour is a must for anyone interested in war history. Having experienced guides made the tours come alive.

Why Choose Africa for Your Vacation?
For most travelers, vacation is a break from daily life — a chance to be inspired by new surroundings, cultures, and landscapes. If that's your idea of a relaxing escape, few regions compare to Southern Africa, where remote wilderness and rich diversity meet accessibility and comfort.
A luxury African safari offers the perfect blend of adventure and indulgence. Picture sunrise over Namibia’s dune sea, guided walks through Botswana’s Chobe River region as elephant mothers shield their calves, or evenings in Kruger National Park — sipping wine by the fire, surrounded by the sounds of the wild.
Whether you’re exploring on one of our private tours in South Africa and Namibia accompanied by an African Sky guide, or setting out on a self-paced journey, lodging options range from cozy and authentic to ultra-luxurious. Experiences are just as varied — from the urban energy of Cape Town to the endless salt flats of Etosha, from lounging on Mozambique’s beaches to tracking lions on foot in the Sabi Sand. All of our journeys can be tailored to your requirements.
