Elite Africa Tours and Travel is a Boutique Travel Company that is proud to be able to offer an exceptionally high level of personal service. We are keen travellers ourselves, who visit our destinations regularly. We love to sample the lodges and guesthouses, taste the food and wine and enjoy a lot of the experiences and activities that we recommend to our travellers.
We have built up an excellent network of suppliers offering you the most amazing travel experiences. The majority of the pictures on our website are from our own travels and it is a privilege to be able to share them with you. We hope it will inspire you to come to Africa one day. We are fully aware that there are many booking engines and travel agents to be found online, but we do things slightly differently. Boutique and unique may rhyme by coincidence but one is very much a part of the other. We have found that as our clients become more experienced travelers, they seek out a more boutique experience that reflects the country that they want to visit.
If you are the type of person that has a strong desire to travel , to experience amazing and unique holidays, the kind where luxury meets authenticity, where adventure meets comfort, then we will be able to help you. We are aware that people have different lifestyles, different preferences, different interests and different expectations. We will work closely with you, customize your travel itinerary, optimise your budget, and offer valuable insights for your planned journey.

Most countries in Africa are stable and safe, but politics and natural disasters happen. Elite Africa stays up to date with elections, weather hazards, and high crime areas. A small skirmish in northern Mozambique may not make headline news, but Elite Africa will know about it and can redirect your holiday to keep you safe. If the rainy season is looking very heavy in southern Africa - then perhaps switching your itinerary around to include more internal flights rather than road transfers, would be a good idea.
