The Dry Season
May to October
This is an exceptional time to spot wildlife on safari; vegetation is low and wildlife congregate around limited water sources, the perfect conditions for game viewing. This is also a great time to see the mighty Victoria Falls; the waters are at their highest in April and May with the best months for visibility being between June and August. As temperatures rise through the season the rains tend to break in the latter half of November.
The Green Season
November to April
With the rains falling regularly by December the Green Season well and truly begins, with beautiful thick bush, a plethora of migratory bird species, and a highly private safari experience.
We’re open 7 days a week

What Our Clients Say
“My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful holiday in Zanzibar with The Safari Edit. The team planned everything exactly as we requested, a mix of culture and sightseeing in Stone Town, followed by complete relaxation on the beach. Everything was taken care of, so we didn’t have to worry about connections, flights or transfers. The hotels that Alex suggested were spot on for our needs and he really took into account things that mattered to us, like stair-free properties and accessible old town tours. All in all, fantastic service and a wonderful trip. We can’t wait to book again.”

What Our Clients Say
“We had a fantastic family holiday to South Africa thanks to The Safari Edit. We love to travel, but, with busy lives, we find it hard to make time to plan big holidays. Alex really knows how to put together a trip of a lifetime. We spent one hour discussing with him what we hoped to experience on our family holiday. Alex then created an outstanding bespoke itinerary. There were so many highlights, including a visit to a local rhino conservation project, exploring the Western Cape, and a “Big 5″ marine safari. We are already planning our next African adventure with The Safari Edit.”

They organised the most magical, once-in-a-lifetime trip to South Africa for us at the start of the year, and it truly was the best trip we have ever been on. Every single detail was perfectly curated, from the hotels and transfers to the experiences and recommendations. A very special thank you to Alex, who was absolutely amazing from start to finish.
