NO ONE DOES AFRICA BETTER
A Letter from Our Managing Director
If you’re planning your first safari, you’ve probably spent hours searching online, comparing prices, and trying to figure out who to trust. I know how frustrating that can be. The truth is, with most safari companies, you’ll never actually speak to the person running the business. You’ll deal with sales reps or agents who have never set foot in the places they’re selling. At Odyssey Safaris, it’s different. When you reach out, you will speak directly with me. I’ve spent more than twenty years operating in Africa, working alongside our guides and partners on the ground to ensure every journey runs flawlessly. My goal is to make sure you feel informed, confident, and completely taken care of from the very first conversation.
Every safari we design is custom built from the ground up, tailored to your interests, comfort, and sense of adventure. Nothing is prepackaged or outsourced. Our small, experienced team operates a limited number of safaris each year to give every guest the attention they deserve. Most of our travelers come to us through personal referrals, and many return again and again. That happens because we treat every journey as if it were our own. If you’re serious about experiencing Africa with people who live and breathe it every day, I would love the chance to earn your business and help you discover Africa the way it is meant to be seen.
OUR APPROACH TO BESPOKE SAFARIS

2
WE DESIGN YOUR SAFARI
With your vision in mind, we craft a tailor-made itinerary—no templates, no shortcuts. Just thoughtful, personalized design that reflects you, not the masses.

THE ODYSSEY DIFFERENCE
Come As Guests. Leave As Family.
“Come as a guest, leave as family” isn’t just a phrase we use it’s the heart of how we design every safari. From the moment you reach out, our team takes the time to understand not just what you want to see, but how you want to feel.
We listen first, then build your journey from the ground up, making sure each detail reflects your style, your pace, and your dream of Africa. Along the way, you’ll be cared for by people who treat hospitality as something far deeper than service it’s connection, warmth, and genuine pride in sharing this continent with you.
By the time your safari comes to a close, you’ll have experienced more than wildlife and landscapes. You’ll have shared stories by the fire, laughed with guides who know these lands by heart, and built bonds that last long after you’ve flown home. Guests often tell us they arrived as travelers, but left as part of our extended family and to us, that is the greatest success of all.
EXPERIENCE AFRICA THE WAY FEW EVER WILL
Planning a safari doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With so many options online, it’s easy to spend hours researching and still feel uncertain. We cut through the noise, saving you time and thousands in costly mistakes, by designing a journey to Africa shaped entirely around you — one that no one else could replicate.
