No company on earth has a deeper connection to the African safari than Abercrombie & Kent. Founder Geoffrey Kent was born on safari and grew up in the bush of Kenya. In the 1960s, he and his parents pioneered the first modern luxury safari with the groundbreaking ethos: “Shoot with a camera, not with a gun,” hosting their first guests in a private, bespoke mobile camp in East Africa.
More than 60 years later, the Abercrombie & Kent safari remains the gold standard for wildlife travel in Africa. Recognized as the Best Luxury Tour Operator in the 2025 Travel Weekly Readers’ Choice Awards, A&K’s masterfully planned safari itineraries focus on immersive experiences led by expert guides refined to suit your pace and preferences.
