What to Expect from a Luxury Safari
A luxury safari isn’t just about where you sleep — it’s how you experience the wild. Wake to coffee delivered to your suite as the sun rises over the savanna. Glide silently past hippos in a mokoro. Return to a bush suite with a plunge pool and starbed, ready for an open-air dinner by lantern light. Expect expert guiding, private game drives, curated wine lists, and moments of stillness that stay with you long after the dust settles.
And yes — the Wi-Fi is usually strong enough to send that elephant photo home.
