Nature Travel Africa
Nature Travel Africa Bio At Nature Travel Africa, safaris are not just trips — they are personal journeys into the heart of Africa. Our founder, Nick Buys, has been exploring Africa’s wild places since childhood. From an early age, he spent time in some of the continent’s most famous parks, but it was in the forgotten, lesser-known corners of Africa where his true love for the African wilderness was born. These experiences shaped a lifelong passion for sharing Africa’s incredible wildlife, breathtaking landscapes, and vibrant cultures with travelers from around the world. From the very beginning, Nature Travel Africa has gathered countless unforgettable memories with clients from all over the world – from face-to-face encounters with Mountain Gorillas in Uganda, to the thrill of tracking Black Rhinos on foot in Namibia’s remote Kaokoland, witnessing epic wildlife moments in Botswana’s Kwai area to exploring the endemic world of Madagascar and meeting with the many species of famous Lemurs. Each adventure has added a chapter to our connection with Africa and today, many years later,  we offer safaris to Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, South Africa, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Madagascar, Malawi and Central African Republic. We are also actively involved in conservation, offering guests unique behind-the-scenes insights into wildlife research and protection efforts. This authentic, conservation-driven approach adds a meaningful dimension to every safari we create. Just as important as our vision is the incredible team of expert guides who make your safari truly unforgettable. Our handpicked guides have decades of experience exploring Africa’s diverse landscapes and ecosystems. With their deep-rooted knowledge of the continent’s mammals, birds, and flora, they know the bush like the back of their hand. Their expertise ranks among the very best in the industry — but even more importantly, they are passionate about sharing their love for Africa, turning every safari into an enriching and inspiring experience. At Nature Travel Africa, we believe that a true African safari is more than ticking off famous destinations or racing from sighting to sighting. It’s about slowing down, savoring the magic of the bush, and discovering both the iconic wildlife — lions, leopards, wild dogs, cheetahs — and the often-overlooked smaller wonders that make Africa so extraordinary. We take pride in designing personalized, off-the-beaten-track safaris that match your dreams and expectations. Whether it’s your first visit to Africa or your fiftieth, we craft each journey with passion, expertise, and a deep commitment to authentic experiences. Our goal is to welcome you as guests and send you home as friends — already dreaming about your next African adventure. This is your safari. We are honored to be part of your journey. We can’t wait to welcome you to Africa.
