Wilderness
Our 40 year journey
Four decades ago, our journey began in Africa. Today, we are proud to offer safaris in over 55 camps in eight African countries with a range of thrilling activities, and an unwavering objective to help to protect 6 million acres of land – and counting. As we celebrate our 40-year anniversary, join us in looking back to a time when we first forged our way in some of Earth’s most untamed wilds.

Protect
And harnessed the sun
