Our Passion for Africa
We were born in Africa. Our lives have been dedicated to the wildlife and its conservation. We would like to share with you a few words which convey the magical lure of Africa
The glories of Africa are well-documented but only those who actually travel there can stand under the wide, sheltering skies and feel the warm red earth beneath their feet. Film and television do not really communicate the sheer thrill of being only yards from a bull elephant, nor do they allow a true picture of the peerless landscapes and richly-textured cultures. Africa is tranquillity and adventure, mighty waters and arid desert, nostalgia and modernity. A land of exciting contrasts and breathtaking beauty lies waiting to be explored.

Transport
Travelling with Diwaka Safaris is made as comfortable as possible. We own modern 4x4 vehicles and mini buses with viewing hatches, radio communications and a mobile wildlife library. Quite often we find that clients prefer the speed and convenience of light aircraft. We can organise both scheduled and charter flights to almost all of our destinations. However, our transport is by no means restricted to the modern-day machines. Our walking safaris can take you to the wildest spots on earth, as can our horse, camel and elephant-back safaris. Without them our fleet would not be complete.
