As former safari operators, we saw firsthand how much tourism revenue never actually benefited local African communities. We saw genuine travelers misled by conflicting information and low-quality tours. So we decided to build the solution: a platform that puts safari travelers and local Africans first.
As former safari operators, travel consultants, and guides, we’ve spent decades on the ground. We built Safari Planner to share our passion and insider knowledge, helping you avoid the pitfalls and find the magic.
Every recommended safari meets our strict standards for sustainability, animal welfare, and positive community engagement.
We exclusively partner with African-owned businesses and family-run operators, not large corporations. Your money contributes to local economies.
We donate 25% of all net revenue to on-the-ground wildlife conservation projects. Your trip helps protect the animals you've come to see.
