Our Story
African Sky was founded in 1998, inspired by a passion for Southern Africa's wild places. Since our inception, we have been a tour operator that strives to share our love of these areas with travelers through thoughtfully designed, authentic experiences.
We do not offer one-size-fits-all tours; we base your trip on what inspires you and craft an itinerary around it.
Today, African Sky thrives on word-of-mouth referrals and our enduring relationships with returning guests. We believe in slow travel, quiet luxury, and journeys that leave lasting memories — not just photographs.
