A journey into Africa with Abercrombie & Kent is a journey guided by nearly 60 years of passion for the mother continent.

Our own story starts here, where we began our African love affair as a luxury safari company in 1960’s Kenya, eventually growing into an award-winning global network of offices. That pioneering passion burns on and is found in a broad range of bespoke A&K Africa itineraries enjoyed by discerning adventurers the world over.

An expedition to Africa is a call to witness the untold majesty of nature’s greatest theatre, the African wilderness. And no experience brings you closer to Africa’s wildlife than an expertly curated A&K safari. Led by skilled guides, you’re placed front row in elite game reserves and unspoilt national parks in Tanzania, Kenya, Zambia, Botswana, South Africa and beyond.

A&K’s tailor-made Africa journeys are as diverse, and sought after, as the continent itself. With expert itineraries and luxury accommodation taken care of, the choice is yours to indulge your wildest imaginings and make real your African dream.

More Information About A&K's Africa

A&K still sets the standard for an African journey like no other, delivering authentic, inspiring experiences beyond the usual tourist haunts. While other safari companies subcontract their services from continents away, we have 10 offices throughout sub-Saharan Africa staffed by individuals who live and work every day in the very areas you visit.

Simply the Best Guides

It is often said that a guide can make or break a special journey. We agree. A&K’s guides in Africa are world’s best, handpicked for their ecological, biological, cultural, historical, geological and anthropological expertise. Each is blessed with extensive knowledge and the ability to bring local fascinations to life as well as ensuring the finest vantage points for wildlife viewing, placing you right in the centre of the action.

Award-winning, iconic hotels

When luxury is what you’re looking for, there’s no reason to settle for second-best. Our local experts choose only the very best hotels, camps and lodges throughout Africa. Be it an undisputed local favourite, a feature on the Condé Nast Traveler Gold List or a whispered secret with locational advantages and abundant atmosphere. Our portfolio of recommendations includes secluded wilderness camps, chic city hotels, mobile operations that move with the seasons, rustic safari lodges and riverside boltholes, each perfectly matched to your personal needs and expectations.

Custom Safari Vehicles

While other safari providers rent or lease their vehicles, A&K owns and maintains its own custom fleet — the finest in East Africa and elsewhere. Our fleet is built to our specifications, with high front and side windows providing great views, air-conditioning in most vehicles, a refrigerator filled with chilled water, and even Wi-Fi access.

Commitment to local communities

Conservation and philanthropy have been integral parts of A&K’s operations for decades, long before they became de rigueur for other operators. Working hand-in-hand with local tribes and villages, we fund schools and clinics and generate opportunities for employment that benefit their communities. As a guest of A&K you are invited to visit grassroots Abercrombie & Kent Philanthropy projects during your African journey.
