The journey is as important as
The DestinationAfrica by road is Africa unfiltered.
More than a destination, it’s a journey where the simple experiences that cannot be predicted hold the richest treasures. Imagine fields of wheat and sunflowers, shimmering mirages on tar, a thousand changing landscapes and endless horizons, and local villagers always ready with a smile and a wave. This is beyond an exploration. It’s an opportunity for self-discovery where you will return home feeling more human, connected, and alive.
Drifters offer meticulously designed small group tours across the best of Southern and East Africa. We offer scheduled departures, but don’t compromise on a uniquely personal experience. We have multi-lingual, expert guides, and our journeys are characterised by 'off the beaten track' experiences.

We had an unforgettable tour! The lodges were all fantastic with very nice, friendly people. We saw so much on the game drives, thanks to the game driver/guide Mac! Because of all these people and the nature, Drifters and Botswana have taken a big place in our hearts!
