Based in Cape Town, Safari Online is a small, owner-run tour operator with 100 years of combined experience in the tourism industry. We are a family of passionate individuals who love Africa – its people, wildlife and natural landscapes.
The aim of Safari Online is simple: to offer a safari planning service that is rooted in personal experience and first-hand knowledge. We travel regularly to double-check logistics and inspect lodges to ensure standards remain high, and we’re right here in Africa if you need real-time assistance when you’re on tour.
You can look forward to a seamless itinerary and real value for money. As for prices, Safari Online negotiates reduced rates on your behalf and we don’t apply any surcharges or fees. You’ll enjoy financial peace of mind thanks to our secure payment systems while our travel association affiliations guarantee your pre-tour deposits and our integrity.
Book and pay for your trip with Safari Online safe in the knowledge that you are travelling with a registered and reputable travel company. Safari Online negotiates with Africa’s top suppliers to secure the best tour and accommodation rates we can. If you see a lower advertised fare or receive a better quote than ours, we’ll try our best to beat or match it.
When it comes to planning an African safari, we’ll take care of everything for you (except your international flights).
Based in Africa, we visit our destinations regularly, checking logistics and accommodation to ensure spot on recommendations.
Tours are tailored to your requirements through personalised consulting, and once you’re on tour, we’re on emergency support 24/7.
We are a SATSA member which means we are legally registered, annually audited, appropriately insured, and bonded
Delivering quality experiences at a reasonable price is our mission; if you manage to somehow find the same holiday for less, we’ll beat it.
Our secure payment system ensure safe financial transactions while our industry association affiliations guarantee any deposits you make.
We understand that people want to book a safari safe in the knowledge that they are dealing with a reputable travel company. That’s why we’re members of the Southern African Tourism Services Association (SATSA – Member no. 2061). Membership means we are legally registered, annually audited, appropriately insured, and bonded – your pre-tour deposits are guaranteed in terms of the SATSA terms & conditions.
We are also represented on Safaribookings.com. as part of our broader online presence.
With Safari Online as your travel partner, you can relax about paying online when paying South African Rand. We’ll bill you in the currency we are invoiced in (usually US dollars or South African rand) and our 3-D secure payment system ensures your credit card transactions are super-safe. You’ll personally authenticate your transaction before payment. When payments need to be made in U$ we require a bank transfer to be made into our U$ bank account here in South Africa. We then in turn make U$ payments to our suppliers.
We also stand by the quality of our tours and safaris, guaranteeing that your safari will meet your expectations. If not, we’ll gladly give you a credit toward a future trip! (This does not apply to unreasonable expectations that do not match the information that we have supplied.)
SATSA stands for the Southern Africa Tourism Services Association, and through our membership Safari Online is a bonded agency, and has a financial guarantee in place to cover monetary deposits lodged with the member in advance of services to be rendered. Visit www.satsa.com for more information.
