Safari Journal

Africa offers some of the best birding on the planet, and African Born Safaris takes you straight into the wilderness areas where rare species thrive alongside luxury lodges. From the Okavango Delta’s Pel’s Fishing Owl and Wattled Cranes, to the Timbavati’s ground-hornbills and pennant-winged nightjars, to Uganda’s Albertine Rift endemics like the Rwenzori Turaco and Green-breasted Pitta, each destination blends exceptional birdlife with high-end, conservation-driven stays. Whether it’s desert specials in Namibia, pittas in Zambia’s Luangwa, or lovebirds in the Serengeti, ABS curates unique birding journeys that are comfortable, meaningful, and deeply connected to the ecosystems you explore.

A recent viral video of chaos at the Great Migration has reignited debate on overtourism. At African Born Safaris, we offer a different path: guiding guests through Singita Grumeti’s vast private concession, where herds move undisturbed and exclusivity means true conservation. The migration deserves to be witnessed as it was always meant to be, wild, unhurried, unforgettable.
