Tailor-made trips

Let the itinerary grow around you

We can arrange a package based on your interests, time and budget — a small birding-club team, a family group, or a slower route with much more time for photography.

When tailor-made makes sense

  • You have a target species list and want the route built around it
  • Photography comes first, and you need longer at each site for better light
  • Older travellers or family groups who want a slower pace and shorter driving days
  • You have already done the classic route and want to add Uganda, Rwanda or southern Tanzania
  • Your dates do not match the scheduled departures
