Luxury Wildlife Holidays & Tours
At the Explorations Company, we’re unashamedly obsessed with wildlife—and we love nothing more than sharing that passion with our guests. Since our founding in 1989 as a tailor-made Africa specialist, we’ve been creating extraordinary luxury safaris across the continent. Over the years, this deep reservoir of experience has allowed us to expand far beyond Africa, designing remarkable wildlife journeys across Asia and Latin America as well.
Our Wildlife Collection draws on this legacy, offering a curated selection of journeys that celebrate the world’s most iconic species and wildest, most pristine places—from Africa’s sweeping savannahs and India’s tiger-rich jungles to the cloud forests of South America and the uniquely biodiverse Galapagos Islands.

When you engage us to create your safari trip of a lifetime, you’ll receive a distinctly individual approach shaped around your own priorities, preferences and passions. Whether it’s your first safari or your tenth, these journeys are designed to immerse you fully in the wonder and drama of the wild—always expertly guided, always deeply personal.
Perhaps you want to take the family on a game drive through the Maasai Mara to witness the Great Migration or track the Big Five, without a crowd of vehicles to break the spell. Or maybe you’ve always dreamed of seeing wild Indian tigers—an experience we can elevate with access to top researchers and conservationists. If it’s the Galapagos calling, we’ll help you navigate the myriad options to craft a journey that fits you perfectly.
If you’re hoping to encounter a particular species you’ve always dreamed about, we don’t just offer gorilla treks and tiger safaris, wonderful as these are. We’ve taken our guests to see anything from golden snub-nosed monkeys in the forests of Yunnan to snow leopards in the snowcapped mountains of Ladakh; maned wolves in Bolivia, Wilson’s bird of paradise in New Guinea, and the Araripe manakin in northern Brazil.
"If you’re a keen photographer, we can bring in acclaimed nature photographers to inspire you and help you hone your art."
At the Explorations Company, we maintain personal connections with many of the world’s most accomplished safari guides and trackers. While few experiences rival the thrill of encountering a wild animal up close, it’s the insight, stories and passion of your guide that transform your safari into something truly life-changing.
The Wildlife Collection isn’t just about seeing wildlife—it’s about experiencing the wild. Raw, thrilling and real.
