Embark on the journey of a lifetime with African Best Journey by Design, where the enchanting tapestry of Africa unfolds before you. Contrary to misconceptions, Africa stands as one of the world’s most sought-after travel destinations, boasting a diverse array of safari experiences. From the awe-inspiring encounter with mountain gorillas in Rwanda and Uganda to the thunderous wildebeest migration in Masai Mara and Serengeti, culminating in the mesmerizing cascade of Victoria Falls in Zambia and Zimbabwe – this is the essence of African Best Journey by Design.
Carefully curated by our experts, these destinations epitomize luxury in the heart of the African wilderness.
Africa’s mountain gorillas, among the endangered wildlife species, share their vulnerability with rhinos, pangolins, elephants, giraffes, and lions, facing threats from poaching and wildlife product demand. Our private guided African gorilla safaris provide a unique opportunity to come face to face with these endangered creatures in Uganda and Rwanda. This immersive journey spans Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park, leading you through dense forests in search of mountain gorillas.
Experience the wildlife spectacle of the Great Wildebeest Migration, a phenomenon likened to an African wildlife world cup. Starting from June, its peak unfolds from July to November, with millions of wildebeests and thousands of zebras marching from Masai Mara plains to Serengeti plains. Witness the dusty spectacle, accompanied by the thunderous hooves, as the quest for survival plays out with crocodiles in Mara River, lions and cheetahs in Grumeti Reserve, creating one of the most exceptional safari experiences on earth.
Victoria Falls, Africa’s longest waterfall, takes center stage in this African journey. The peak viewing period, after summer rains from February to May, showcases the mighty falls. The journey then continues to Botswana’s Okavango Delta, known as the home of elephants, where approximately 15,000 African savannah elephants roam through the delta.
Cape Town’s Table Mountain, one of the world’s best beach cities, emerges as an iconic destination. Beyond its photogenic allure, Table Mountain is a sanctuary of biodiversity with 2,200 plant species, including 1470 endemics. The Cape Floral region, a UNESCO World Heritage site, reveals the richest floral diversity globally. Amidst breathtaking landscapes, the mountain hosts unique fauna, featuring caracals, rock hyraxes, and chacma baboons. Penguins grace the Boulders, adding to the diversity. As the mountain stands tall at 1,086 meters above sea level, its proximity to the sea and the city amplifies its grandeur.
To witness the pinnacle of these extraordinary journeys, July emerges as the optimal time. This period aligns with the peak of the wildebeest migration and offers superb conditions for gorilla tracking, with minimal rainfall, ensuring an immersive and unforgettable experience.
