"If you are coming to help me, you are wasting your time but if you are coming because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together." -Indigenous Saying
The Exquisite Safaris philanthropic mission integrates a guided visit to a humanitarian outreach project into every private, luxury, epicurean experience we create. These personal introductions create authentic cross cultural friendships that generate trust, respect, and generous donations funding philanthropic travel projects worldwide. ...Collaboration creates Prosperity: Philanthropic Travel
Intimate Luxury Experiences
Our experiences are designed for travelers who prefer the privacy, freedom and flexibility of traveling alone, with a spouse, or a small group of family and friends. Our thoughtfully planned, tailor made itineraries make "independent" the most convenient way to travel. Each responsible travel experience includes "must-see" sights and the finest hotels as well as expert local guides, private transfers and selected meals. Our experiences are private, which means you will always have your own vehicle and English speaking guide. Explore the planet confident that you will have the epicurean experience you desire while being introduced to an effective way to create a legacy of compassion that will last long after you have returned home.
Africa, Asia, South America and Beyond
Our luxury experiences throughout Asia, Africa, South America are opportunities to step beyond the narrow confines of the well-traveled tourist circuit to feel the pulse of a country. Immerse yourself in new experiences and cultures, and come away inspired by what you have seen and satisfied that your journey was more fulfilling than you would have imagined.
Our Experience Guides You
On our private (not group) custom-designed experiences, knowledgeable Exquisite Safaris consultants are available from the moment you begin thinking about where you want to go until your trip concludes. Before you depart, you will work closely with one of our experts to design an absolutely perfect itinerary that includes a compelling visit to a humanitarian outreach program, well-planned touring, and the very best accommodations. We have spent the better part of our lives promoting philanthropic travel, and we continue to travel in order to stay current on the latest social issues, attractions, restaurants, and accommodations. Our recommendations are based on our own first-hand experience. We spend an extraordinary amount of time with each and every client, learning about you and your interests so that we can create the most enjoyable travel experience possible. We truly welcome an opportunity to share our accumulated knowledge and passion for travel with you.
Local, Seasoned Career Guides
To assist and accompany you on your trip, Exquisite Safaris uses local guides that know each destination as only a resident can. Our guides are smart, dynamic, personable, fluent in your language, and they appreciate the genuine curiosity and keen intelligence of Exquisite Safaris visitors. Guides conduct all touring to our careful specifications, and are pleased to suggest alterations to your itinerary during your trip to satisfy your personal interests and requests. Flexible private touring allows you to take advantage of chance encounters and serendipitous moments, so you can follow new interests as your knowledge of a destination grows and develops. Unlike a group tour, there is no fixed agenda: the guide is yours exclusively and the suggested itinerary can be altered as you wish.
Safety and Comfort
Because your safety and comfort are paramount, we include luxury transportation and accommodation in all itineraries. The properties we choose are noted for their exquisite service and tranquility. We understand that relaxation is an essential component to enhance your experience. Whether you want a cozy bed and breakfast, a luxury safari camp, a stunning eco-lodge or a chic downtown hotel, we have a recommendation to suit your preferences. As an Exquisite Safaris traveler, you are also entitled to exclusive upgrades and amenities at many of the properties we use.
Please don't be surprised if an unexpected gift, activity or exquisite keepsake greets you upon arrival in a new country. We leave no stone unturned to ensure your experience is absolutely exquisite. Finally, if you need to change your services while traveling, you will always have a contact on location to handle your request. No international communication or overseas calls are necessary, because your guide and our in-country partners will see that your needs are met smoothly and efficiently.
