WELCOME TO FIRELIGHT SAFARIS, AFRICA
PERSONALIZED LUXURY
Since 1989, we have specialised in private, personalised luxury safaris in Tanzania. Drawing on this experience, we recommend a carefully selected range of luxury tented camps and lodges across Tanzania, East and Southern Africa, and beyond.
EXCEPTIONAL WILDLIFE VIEWING
Most camps offer customised, open-sided safari vehicles designed for excellent wildlife viewing. Encounter herds of elephant and buffalo, and observe prides of lions resting beneath acacia trees. Explore destinations renowned for the Big Five, follow the Great Migration of wildebeest and zebra across the Serengeti plains, or visit the Ngorongoro Crater, home to 30,000 animals.
Tarangire and Lake Manyara offer opportunities to see elephants, flamingos and a rich variety of bird life.
For a journey that combines wildlife encounters with cultural exploration or time on the coast, we can create an itinerary featuring the vibrant streets of Stone Town or the white-sand beaches and Arabic influences of Zanzibar.
Extend your journey with gorilla encounters in Rwanda’s Parc des Volcans or Uganda’s Impenetrable Forest.
Explore Zambia’s Luangwa National Park, known for its walking safaris and fewer crowds, or visit Kafue National Park for its exceptional diversity of antelope.
In Zimbabwe, experience the dramatic scenery of Victoria Falls and the diverse wildlife of Hwange National Park.
Discover Botswana’s Okavango Delta, an inland wetland formed where the Okavango River flows into a tectonic trough in the Kalahari Desert.
The NamibRand Nature Reserve and Sossusvlei sand dunes offer distinctive landscapes and opportunities to experience desert wildlife.
In South Africa, enjoy the views from Table Mountain and explore the wine country through relaxed wine-tasting tours.
