Private Guiding
There’s no single way to see Africa — but the right way is with someone who truly knows it.
With private guiding, you’re not following a script — you’re writing your own story. Your guide becomes your storyteller, wildlife expert, and friend, leading you off the beaten track to the real heart of Africa.
Each day unfolds just for you: tracking lions at sunrise, sharing laughter with locals, or pausing to watch elephants wander by. There’s no rush, no crowds — just raw beauty, freedom, and connection.
At Sabona Travel, our private guides have lived and breathed Africa for decades. They don’t just show you the wilderness — they help you feel it.
Because when you travel privately, you don’t just see Africa — Africa sees you.
