African Encounters Ltd - your safari specialist

With more than 30 years expertise, African Encounters specialise in luxury safaris for small groups of like-minded travellers. OUR AIM: To ensure our clients fall in love with the African Continent as much as us. Africa is our passion. We’ve lived there, we’ve worked there and our reputation for creating safaris beyond expectations ensures that for some that “once in a lifetime safari” becomes the first of many. We delight in sharing our love of Africa, its wildlife and people with you so you can make your dream destination a reality. WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE AFRICAN ENCOUNTERS : We’re not a big faceless safari company. We know all the best places to explore and the secret ones too. We have a wide range of safaris to choose from in both East Africa and Southern Africa. All our tours are unique and exclusive to African Encounters, with many personally escorted by our Director, Karen Platzer. Forget backpacking, our safaris offer luxury accommodation on private conservancies off the tourist route and not accessible to larger groups. No minibuses or overland trucks with us. Instead you’ll enjoy game drives in open-sided 4x4 safari vehicles with daily surprises and the safety and security of travelling with small groups of likeminded travel companions.
