Safari Collection offers truly authentic safari experiences, delivered with a commitment to the highest standards of quality, comfort, and safety. Together with our experienced and trusted partners, we aim to turn your safari dreams into reality, creating unforgettable memories along the way.

What Makes Us Unique?

Safari Collection specialises in creating exclusive, tailor-made safari holidays in Africa. We only recommend destinations and experiences we have personally visited and tested. For over 20 years, we have sought out the most exceptional lodges, the most awe-inspiring experiences, the most wildlife-rich national parks, and the most reliable and safety-conscious partners—and our search never ends. This dedication is what sets us apart.

Why Is This So Important to Us?

As a traveller, you deserve to trust that the experiences you book live up to their promises. Since we focus on the most exclusive segment of the market, it is even more crucial that the products we offer meet the highest standards. At Safari Collection, we ensure this by conducting all site inspections ourselves, evaluating every detail using our extensive experience and knowledge to guarantee the quality of your trip.
We go one step further—offering nothing we haven’t personally stayed at and experienced. A site inspection alone is not enough; we believe in fully immersing ourselves in and experiencing each destination. We regularly revisit the properties and experiences we offer to ensure they continue to meet our rigorous standards. This commitment allows us to confidently recommend lodges, resorts, camps, and experiences that reflect our values of exceptional quality, comfort, and safety.

What Does This Mean for You?

Our primary goal is for you to feel confident and secure when you choose us to craft your bespoke safari adventure. Whether you’re a seasoned safari traveller or embarking on your first journey, our unmatched local knowledge and personal insights allow us to find the perfect lodge and experience tailored to you.

In addition to her travel expertise, Malin draws on her background in public health and her experience as a Health Counsellor to offer wellness-focused journeys. Safari Collection combines health-oriented travel, such as yoga retreats, with the region’s extraordinary culinary and cultural richness. This unique blend allows travellers to rejuvenate both body and soul while exploring the wonders of Southern and Eastern Africa.
