Bush and Beach Safaris












Bush and Beach Safaris
Bush and Beach Safaris
Two worlds. One unforgettable journey.
Africa offers a rare contrast – the pulse of the wild and the stillness of the sea. For those torn between the thrill of a safari and the serenity of a white-sand escape, the answer is simple: experience both.
Begin with Big Five encounters in iconic reserves, where the air hums with anticipation and the land teems with life. Then slow the rhythm on a remote beach or private island, where coral reefs, azure waters, and coastal cultures offer a new kind of wonder. The exotic archipelagos and coastal ports are a rich tapestry of global influences – a meeting point of the continent’s heritage and faraway traditions. Africa’s Indian Ocean shores are as wild and diverse as its inland plains, and a seamless finale to an unforgettable journey.
Highlights
- Curated journeys from Big Five safaris to Indian Ocean retreats
- Private safari lodges and exclusive beachfront villas
- Snorkeling vibrant coral reefs and exploring marine-rich waters
- Immersive coastal cultures and remote island escapes

"As a travel journalist who’s stayed at hundreds of hotels and worked with countless guides, I can confidently say Ker & Downey® Africa stands out. From handpicking exceptional properties to being available before 8am on a Saturday, their attention to detail and high-touch service made my South African journey seamless.

"Thank you for the best honeymoon we could’ve imagined! We spent 5 nights on safari at luxury lodges, followed by 3 nights in Cape Town, and ended our journey on a stunning private nature reserve. Everything ran seamlessly, and the team stayed in touch with us throughout. Words can’t describe how incredible the experience was."
