Editoral Review of African Budget Safaris

Based in Cape Town, African Budget Safaris is an independent tour provider offering the more budget minded traveler the opportunity to enjoy remarkable African safaris.

What Makes African Budget Safaris Stand Out

African budget safaris

They provide a way for budget travelers to experience Africa, including keeping an up to date specials and deals section. They offer a wide selection of tours beyond safaris such as overland tours, hiking tours, and city breaks. Whether you’re looking for an adventure trip or a comfortable self-drive itinerary, they have a lot of choice and flexibility.

Who Will Enjoy Traveling with African Budget Safaris?

African Budget Safaris are ideal for first time travelers to Africa who are interested in a safari designed by experts, and in a reasonable price range. This safari company is also a good place to start if you’re looking for a lot of options - for example if you’re not sure how long you’ll have for your safari, they offer plenty of choices from day tours to longer more inclusive packages.

If you are more interested in an exclusive, private, or luxury safari, you may not find quite what you’re looking for at African Budget Safaris, but it’s still worth a look. You may find that their expertise, friendliness, and ability to customize will still satisfy what you’re hoping for from a safari.

Top Destinations

African Budget Safaris operates throughout Africa, including, South Africa, Kenya, Botswana, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and Madagascar.

African Budget Safaris Travel Style

There are multiple ways you can travel when you use African Budget Safaris. Accommodations vary from overland camping to guest houses and safari lodges. Activity and travel style vary from high adventure (motorbike safaris, hot air ballooning, and mountain bike safaris just to name a few) to more leisurely guided walks, game drives, and even self guided drives.

Why Choose a Tour with African Budget Safaris

The breadth of choice they offer makes it easy to find the kind of safari or African travel experience you’re looking for. They are based in Cape Town which means they are intimately knowledgeable about the safaris they offer and their travel experts can help guide you to the one that’s right for you.

About the company

African Budget Safaris is an independent and privately owned company. We have no allegiance to any specific tour operator or public company. This means we are free to pick and choose the best possible travel products on offer.

We do not take payments from operators to have their products on our site. All the tours on our website are here because they represent the best African travel experiences available.

We are continually evaluating all of our trips, based on our own experiences and on feedback from our customers, which you can read on our TripAdvisor profile and also, in the near future, on our upcoming SafariBookings.com profile page.

We choose our travel partners carefully and only make use of operators who have a proven history of delivering on what they promise, and whose reputations are above repute. This gives us peace of mind in knowing that we can follow through on offering our travelers a great holiday. We buy our products directly from the suppliers and make use of our collective buying power to ensure that the savings we negotiate are passed on to you.

With all this African travel experience under our belts we can guarantee that all of the adventure travel tours, budget safaris, camping safaris, overland packages, city & short stay packages and self drive trips we carry are the best African budget travel packages available.

Budget travel experts that know their stuff

All of our travel consultants are crazy about this continent and have excellent knowledge of the areas they send clients to. Knowing the tours on offer is part and parcel of working at African Budget Safaris, and this means regular trips to the bush for our sales and product team. Only once our people have a full understanding of the product are they allowed to consult to you the client.

It is essential to us that we are open to feedback with regard to our tours and safaris. African Budget Safaris encourages any and all feedback, be it positive or negative, regarding your holiday experience.

This not only allows us to keep abreast of our various operators but allows us to continually update and improve our information. We like to be sure that what is displayed on our site is a true and accurate reflection of the experiences our travelers are having.
