Overview

Chongwe-River-House-ellie
Private bush villas, also known colloquially as ‘Safari Houses’ in Africa, are taken on an exclusive use basis by one party. These villas in the bush have their own game ranger and private vehicle for your game drives. Plus a private chef and full staff complement.

The beauty of this is that you can choose your own game-viewing rhythm. Which means that bush villas are also perfect for family safaris. This accommodation set-up leads to a much more relaxed and flexible family safari. No constant worrying about noise levels. No self-consciousness about an impromptu ball game on the lawn.

Some private safari houses in Africa are totally alone. Whilst others are part of a larger camp - but set away. This means you have the option of enjoying the camp’s facilities -  perhaps having a convivial drink at the bar or a massage? Or keeping to yourselves. Truly, the best of all worlds.

Where can I find this exclusivity?

Private Safari Villas

In Zambia, Kenya and South Africa we can recommend a number of private safari houses. Luxurious self contained homesteads which your group of friends or family party take as one unit.

We will certainly use Cedarberg again
"All the arrangements worked perfectly – no hiccups at all. We will certainly use Cedarberg again and will recommend the company to others. We were particularly impressed by the fact that the ground agents met us from every flight and saw us on to the next flight so if anything had gone awry there was someone on hand to help us sort it out. As one gets older that is enormously comforting. " - Ms Sandra Clark, UK
You delivered us a near perfect experience
