When the weather gets dull and dreary in January, we could recommend many places to visit to escape the doldrums. This January—and throughout the whole year—we think you should consider an adventure in Africa. It’s crowd-free and wild as can be.

Year-Round at Kanana and Dinaka

Usually these Botswana camps close for annual leave, training, maintenance, and refurbishments. Luckily for safari-goers in 2020, Kanana and Dinaka plan to stay open year-round giving you all the more opportunity to get your fill of outdoor adventure.

These two camps pair perfectly, offering guests unique experiences in two of Botswana’s very different environments: the Okavango Delta and Central Kalahari. If The Lion King has you inspired to see a safari for yourself, Botswana is a great place to start.

Pop-Up Serengeti Camps

From January to April 2020, a small tented camp near the Mara River in the Kogatende region will set up shop, and include all of the services and hospitality you’d expect from luxury tented camps in the region.

The price: from $6,650 per person for 8 days and 7 nights on safari.

The catch: book fast, because the camp won’t be around for very long. Contact us our reach out directly to your designer to book.

Escape the crowds on guided bush walks and game drives. Grab your camera, there’s a lot to capture: lions, rhinos, elephants, buffalo, hippo, and plentiful wildlife running, hopping, skipping, and jumping.

Kids over the age of five can join this one-of-a-kind African adventure. Twin and double beds, mosquito netting, and safe boxes are available in your tents. Bucket showers and an en suite bathroom with bath amenities will refresh you after a day out on safari in this corner of Tanzania.

Secret Season in Kenya

Kenya’s green season is just the time to go to Africa, starting your visit in one of the most unique places you will ever stay: Giraffe Manor. What could be more thrilling than a Rothschild giraffe’s long neck poking through a window to curiously check out what you are eating for breakfast?

Next, head off to Solio Lodge. Its address couldn’t be more perfect. Nestled between the Aberdare Mountains and Mount Kenya, the views here are unmatched and the acacia forests are full of animals. Next up is Sasaab, where bathing elephants frolic in the flowing river. Since green season sees fewer travelers, you will have an even better opportunity for an exclusive safari experience.
