What Sets Us Apart

Four promises on every booking.

A real human is one message away — before, during and after your trip, around the clock.

04

Transparent Pricing

Clear quotes, no hidden fees, smart trade-offs — premium service that respects your budget.

Going Further

The difference you can feel on the ground.

On-the-ground, not just online

Our team is based in Nairobi with resident guides and partners across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda. We know which lodge has the resident leopard, which conservancy is best in green season, and which flight path avoids the morning fog over Kilimanjaro.

Sustainability

Travel that gives back

We partner with conservancies and community-owned lodges where your stay directly funds anti-poaching, education and local employment. Every SAFW itinerary can be carbon-balanced and aligned with a verified community project.

One brief, one contact, one accountable team

Whether you book a 3-day Mara fly-in or a 14-day Grand East Africa circuit, you have one named travel consultant from first quote to safe return. No call-centre roulette, no repeat explanations.

One point of contact
Safety and insurance

Travel with confidence

All SAFW bookings include 24/7 emergency assistance, AMREF flying doctors evacuation insurance options, and a dedicated duty officer. You will always know who to call.

Common Questions

Why Us — FAQ

Why book through SAFW Travel instead of online?
Online platforms price-compete on the same inventory but cannot manage a real-world disruption. SAFW holds direct contracts with lodges and airlines, plus a 24/7 duty officer who can reroute you in real time — protection no online checkout provides.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. SAFW Travel is a registered travel agency with all required bonding, liability insurance, and IATA-equivalent credentials. We are also members of relevant national travel associations.
Do you handle group and corporate bookings?
Yes — from 6-person teams to 200-delegate conferences. We provide a single account manager, central billing, traveller manifests and on-site coordination.
How is payment structured?
A 30% deposit secures your booking, with the balance due 45 days before travel. We accept bank transfer, card and mobile money, with instalment plans available for larger trips.
What happens if something goes wrong on safari?
Our duty officer is reachable 24/7. All vehicles carry first-aid kits and radio contact. We can deploy AMREF Flying Doctors evacuation if needed, and we maintain contingencies for every booking.
