Event Safari Planning's

Best Safaris

Whether it be for incentive travel, conferences, weddings or for major sporting events, Africa has become a popular choice of destination for events planning. Although there are cities throughout South Africa and the rest of Africa who also offer excellent facilities, Cape Town with its superb tourism, sports and business infrastructure stands out as the destination of choice for most.

Event Safari Planning

While the travel consultants at Safari-Guru are known for creating unique, immersive, and personalised journeys across the African Continent, we also manage requests from small groups, families and businesses looking for that “bucket list” safari as an add on to their planned holiday or commitment. Our African Travel Specialists create unique safaris in some of the best wildlife areas in East Africa and Southern Africa which seamlessly fit into any predetermined plans.

Planning a bespoke safari to coincide with an event requires both an acute understanding of the destination and an understanding of the coordination involved with inbound and outbound international flight connections. Safari Guru offers handcrafted itineraries to all safari destinations, including privately hosted journeys for larger groups seeking to get a little extra from the experience.

For those seeking the ultimate convenience and exclusivity of private flying, either from your home continent or within Africa, please request information on Safari Guru's private flying itineraries.

The safari itineraries listed below have been designed for scheduled events already planned on the global calendar and requested by organisers, communities, and travel groups. While these revolve around specific events, we also offer additional “event safari planning” itineraries not displayed.

If you would like a Safari-Guru Travel Specialist to design a safari according to your needs or scheduled event, the team at Safari-Guru will gladly share ideas on the most suitable travel options.

This was our 4th trip to Africa and by far the best ever. All the details were properly handled; we had not flight problems or delays and the service provided by Safari Guru was outstanding. I would recommend them, and have to friends and family. We will be going back to Africa with the outstanding Staff of Safari Guru.

We recently returned from Kenya, had a fabulous safari designed by Deon de Villiers of Safari Guru. We had some wonderful sightings and the whole thing went without a single hiccup. The guides were excellent. Deon was so helpful in allowing us to reschedule several times due to COVID restrictions preventing travel. We visited Sirikoi in the Lewa Conservancy and Serian Ngare, Serian Nkorombo and Mara Plains at Masai Mara, each place offering a different experience, each special in its own way. Loved the rhinocerous at Lewa, giraffe giving birth at Ngare, hippopotamus at Nkorombo and cats at Mara Plains, and so so much more. We highly recommend Deon and the Safari Guru team.

We finally got to take our Kenya/Rwanda adventure with Safari Guru post pandemic. Our trip was a fantastic experience that immersed us in Africa. The holiday went as planned, everything was organised so we were gently steered from place to place, which we enjoyed as we found we weren't "travel fit" after sitting on sidelines for two years! Our lodges in Kenya were beautiful, nice and small, felt like you were part of a family, rather than a customer! Rwanda was a highlight, an amazing country with a shocking past that is moving forward beautifully. The advice from Deon to do two gorilla walks was perfect. Our first day we hiked in to mountain and when we got there the heavens opened and it didn't stop! The scouts found 6 gorillas for us to glimpse as they were hiding from rain too! We trekked down in the mud, rivers of water ending up bedraggled! It was a great experience but the next day was perfect! Beautiful blue skies, trekked up and gorillas were everywhere, sunning themselves and eating vigorously. Was awesome being so close and they couldn't care less! Would highly recommend safari Guru, they planned us a perfect holiday and are easy to contact with queries and answer promptly. Travelling on our own was great as each place we stayed, there were like travellers from around the world to socialise with. Thanks Deon and Ashley

I was completely blown away with the service I received from Safari Guru. We had a most marvellous holiday in South Africa, Botswana and Namibia. Everything went extremely well and the Wilderness team were excellent in looking after us at each of their safari camps. Well done to Deon and Ashley, Morag Cotsell

Had an amazing experience working with Deon and Safari Guru. My wife and I went into this trip thinking of it as a once in a lifetime experience. Because of our experience we have another trip in mind to bring our children so they can have the same amazing experience that we had. Thank you Deon! We look forward to seeing you again!

Safari Guru organized us an amazing journey in Namibia for our wedding anniversary; it will be long lasting and marvelous memories for years! We also greatly appreciated the dedication and support of Safari Guru's team during these challenging times of the Covid pandemic as they had to re-arrange 2 times our trip initially planned for 2020. Thanks and kudos to Deon and all at Safari Guru!

Botswana! What an incredible destination as we begin to travel again. This is a trip of a lifetime. The game drives were exhilarating, the people are friendly, the food fantastic, and the accommodations are meant to spoil you. Our trip was beautifully planned and executed by Deon De Villiers and his team at Safari Guru. They have been to every camp they recommend and tailor your safari experience to you. What else could you ask for! We will travel with them again and highly recommend Safari Guru to plan your next trip!
