Battlefield and Cultural Tours That Connect Us All

South Africa, a land of great thirst to the North, and the beginnings of life to the South. To the East, rich stories trickle down from the highest mountaintops before meandering over vast plateaus before plunging off great escarpments to the ocean, ready to welcome ancient rivers that have bore witness to some of history’s most dramatic events.

These places are yours to let your imagination ignite. To look for answers, to reflect on the experiences of others, and to realise the extraordinary stories that bind us to this ancient land. With African Safari Collective, we share the stories that connect and root us in the African soil, with cultural tours spanning from the great hills of KwaZulu-Natal to the forests of the Garden Route.

The more you hear, the better your understanding. The closer your bond becomes to the most beautiful of places. Discover stories ready to be shared with the world; all you have to do is pack your walking shoes, sunblock and sense of adventure.
