Frequently Asked Questions
For the South African dreamer
We offer flexible payment options to help you pay over time. You secure your spot with a deposit, then settle the rest over 3 to 12 months. Travel doesn’t have to feel out of reach—it just needs the right rhythm.
We recommend 3–6 months in advance for custom travel and at least 8- 12 months for joining scheduled group trips. Last-minute requests are possible, but subject to availability and premium pricing.
It depends on the trip, but most deposits range from R1,500 to R3,000. Once you’ve paid your deposit, we reserve your place and set up a payment schedule that works for your pocket.
We curate soulful journeys across Africa—from coastal escapes to safari sanctuaries, wellness retreats to cultural immersions. Whether you’re a global nomad yearning to meet the continent beyond the clichés, or a South African finally ready to take that first trip, we design travel that’s intentional, transformative, and rooted in place.
We’ve built this with you in mind. You can either set up a monthly debit order or split your payment into manageable instalments that suit your income. We’ll send reminders, track your payment progress, and help you stay on track until departure.
We get it. The internet is wild.
Here’s what we offer to give you peace of mind:
- A real team based in Cape Town and Mpumalanga, available for voice calls and video chats.
- Official travel documents after every payment—no guessing.
- A payment system as secure as any airline or hotel site.
- Real clients who’ll vouch for us (we’ll connect you if you’d like).
You’re not sending money into the void—you’re joining a community.
Yes, you’ll be able to pay directly on our website through a secure payment gateway—just like you would on any major travel site. You’ll receive an email receipt, a signed trip breakdown, and access to your personal client portal.
Not all trips need a passport—some are local gems within South Africa. But for international trips like Zanzibar or Mozambique, you will need one. If you don’t have one, we’ll guide you through the process step by step. It’s simpler than you think, and we’re here to support you.
Yes, 100%. Our trips are designed with you in mind—first-time travellers, young professionals, students, and anyone who’s always wanted to explore but didn’t know where to start. You don’t need to have travelled overseas or stayed in a luxury hotel before. We’ll walk you through everything.
Yes. Many of our travellers are students, creatives, first-time passport holders, and everyday South Africans earning between R7,500 and R20,000 per month. We create payment plans that work with your reality, not against it.
Yes. In fact, we recommend it. We offer no-pressure discovery calls via WhatsApp or Zoom. You can ask questions, share your concerns, or just chat about your dream destinations.
Once you’re booked, we’ll send you a full travel guide: what to pack, how to budget, what to expect, and how to prepare—right down to your SIM card and skincare. You won’t be left in the dark.
Yes. While we offer group trips, we also create bespoke travel experiences for solo travellers, couples, or families. Whether you want wellness, adventure, healing, or celebration—we’ll design around your desires.
Because everyone deserves the gift of going somewhere new. Because Africa is not a place to escape from—but a place to return to, to rest in, to be revived by. And because we believe that travel—when done with care—can change lives.
For the global seeker | African Luxury Journeys
We work with local artisans, chefs, wellness facilitators, storytellers, and guides. You won’t be herded through monuments—you’ll be invited into rhythms. You’ll break bread with real people, hear real history, and sleep in places that carry spirit, not just stars.
So much. There’s the stillness of the Cederberg, the healing rituals of Zanzibar, the design-forward hideaways of Stellenbosch, the cultural hum of Dakar, the music of Maputo.
We specialise in what’s beyond the obvious—intimate, soulful journeys across the continent.
That’s entirely up to you. Some clients prefer to hand us the reins, others want to co-create. We’re happy either way. Your preferences—dietary, spiritual, cultural, emotional—shape every detail.
Yes. In fact, we love creating travel that honours personal thresholds—marriage, turning 40, quitting the job, healing after heartbreak.
We’ll build a journey that meets the moment. No recycled itineraries—just something true to you.
Our African luxury experiences — whether safari escapes, cultural immersions, or wellness sanctuaries — are curated with depth and discretion.
Because we only host a handful of travellers at a time, these journeys are available by application only.
We look for alignment: energy, intention, openness. Not passport stamps.
Absolutely. If you’re based in Europe, the US, or beyond—we curate African escapes that blend luxury with authenticity.
Whether it’s your first time on the continent or your tenth, we’ll introduce you to the Africa that’s not in brochures.
