Contact Robin to curate your luxe travelWhat is Ultra-Luxe travel to you? Timeless Africa Safaris has a taken a fresh approach to the concept of Luxe Travel, where luxurious accommodation, exceptional food & 600-thread count linen is a given. It is more about having a seamless experience; from the moment you arrive at the airport you don’t see your luggage until you arrive in your room, your helicopter is waiting for you to whisk you straight to your hotel rooftop and your private villa is pre-stocked with all your favourite food and beverages. It is about having the most amazing experiences on your terms and time frame. Every moment curated to suit your needs, whether it is a barrister/ wine connoisseur who accompanies you, a private safari guide to give you an in-depth insight into conservation to a world-class photographer on hand to capture and share those magic moments. The common thread throughout is authenticity, knowledge, specialised services, and attention to detail.

Your expert in Luxe Travel, Robin, shares his story:
Having been in the luxury travel industry for the past 20 years I have been very fortunate to have travelled the globe and experienced Luxe Travel firsthand. For me, the ultimate essence of Luxe Travel is the time to explore, experience, engage, and set my own agenda. It’s where every aspect of my travels has been thought about and no stone unturned to ensure a seamless experience. Of course, I love exceptional food & luxurious accommodation but it is more about the “what & how” of my experience done on my terms. I am passionate about applying my philosophy of Luxe Travel to Africa, for you.

The Uber-Luxe side of Africa
How we define Luxe Travel in Africa…
Luxe Family – carefully selected properties that cater for children with interesting and informative programmes, downtime for the parents with child carers on hand, easy and efficient movement from one destination to the next…make for a seamless family holiday without compromising on luxury.
Luxe Experience – there is no doubt that COVID has changed our world view, with more emphasis on connections, relationships and making a difference. The new luxury experience could entail getting involved in rhino tagging, trekking to see the lowland gorillas in the Congo & deep-diving into local cultures. There is a sense we need less to experience more.
Luxe Incognito / Private – for many celebrities and well-known guests, “not being recognised” is a luxury in itself. Private charters and helicopter transfers, exclusive-use villas and lodges, discreet yet attentive staff to take care of your every need allow our incognito guests to enjoy their African holiday with discretion and privacy.
Luxe Remote Living – the concept of luxury remote living is a fairly new one. Enjoy extended stays in luxury accommodation, kitted out with all the mod cons a modern family would need. High-speed WIFI, office facilities, etc. all in exotic locations. Allow time to attend to day-to-day needs, and at the same time explore and experience.

All the locations were superlative in their quality of accommodation, friendliness of their staff and of course the quality of their food (especially since we were vegetarians).
