We believe storytelling plays a pivotal role in education and in creating a more responsible future of travel within the conservation landscape. We seek to minimise the negative environmental and social impacts of travel while maximising its positive impacts. These articles keep our readers informed and inspired to join us in celebrating Africa and doing good. Over sixteen million people in the last decade have read our stories that reflect the complexity and reality of life at ground level here in Africa. And, we generate significant donations for selected conservation projects that deliver impact at the ground level. We choose each project carefully based on our assessment of its contribution to biodiversity and rural people living amongst wildlife.

Photographic Safari Kenya

Thanks to Christian who made an outstanding job.
As a photographer I have been interested in wide and hook-lipped (black) rhinos in different conservancies and in meeting some of the last remaining supertuskers in Amboseli etc. My dreams became true.
And at Ol Pejeta Tented Camp in Mara North Conservancy, a special camp for photographers, I had amazing adventures.

Southern highlands of Ethiopia

I had an unusual brief for Christian at Africa Geographic when he phoned me. I wanted to visit two remote locations where my aunt had worked as a nurse 50 years ago. He immediately suggested a means to get there, and I supplied the local contacts.
I achieved my goals, to experience the setting of her work, and to glean fresh insights through interviewing people who knew her.
The company was very efficient and reliable. My husband and I felt safe and cared for in some quite difficult situations, such as roads undergoing roadworks, an almost impassable four-wheel drive track up a mountain, and stomach upsets. Our driver was excellent, and nothing phased him. His insights into the wildlife we passed along the way added to the enjoyment of the journey. He was responsive to our every request.
If you want a personalised safari, I highly recommend them.

We’re so glad Christian and the team could help bring this vision to life and that you felt safe and well taken care of throughout the adventure - especially on those tricky roads! It’s wonderful to hear that your driver added to the experience with his knowledge and responsiveness. We deeply appreciate your recommendation and hope to assist you on another extraordinary journey in the future.

Africa Geographic, Christian Boix & South Africa

Christian did an outstanding job organizing an unforgettable trip for my family and me to South Africa. We began planning our journey only two months prior to our December travel dates, and Christian created an itinerary that far exceeded our expectations.

We enjoyed two incredible safaris over the course of eight nights, which struck the perfect balance between family-friendly (ideal for our kids, ages 10 and 11) and fun experiences for adults. Following the safaris, we spent four nights in Cape Town, soaking in the city’s beauty and culture, before embarking on a breathtaking tour of the Garden Route.

Thanks to Christian’s expertise, we had an extraordinary experience. I recommend his services for anyone looking to explore South Africa in a truly memorable way.

Hi there Nicole. Thank you for your glowing review. We are always pleased to hear it when we meet and exceed your expectations. What a pleasure to enjoy a safari adventure with your family. We are sure they all had a fantastic time, having enjoyed the best of the bushveld as well as the adventures of Cape Town and the beautiful Garden Route. Your trip sounds like it was absolutely enthralling! I’m sure the safari bug must have bitten the kids too now, and we will be delighted to host you once again for your next safari adventure. Thanks for choosing AG – we hope to host you soon once more!

Norther Kruger and Zanzibar organized by Christian Boix

We had another amazing experience with Africa Geographic. Christian Boix was extremely helpful planning our trip to northern Kruger in South Africa. He also helped us to plan a second part of our trip to Mozambique, but when political difficulties in the country seemed likely to interfere with our plans, he and the whole team were extremely proactive in encouraging us to change plans and were able to construct a wonderful itinerary for us at the very last minute to Zanzibar. We were very happy to have had these plans in place. In Kruger we had an amazing, knowledgeable, skilled guide who was always happy to discuss any topic in detail and we enjoyed fantastic accommodations with boardwalk birdwatching and poolside wildlife viewing right along the river, and we were extremely happy. In Zanzibar, Christian helped us to organize some very down to earth cultural excursions which will be strong family memories forever! We loved biking through the villages, learning how to climb coconut palm trees, meeting and chatting with local kids, and we adored our Swahili cooking lesson!

Christian Boix of Africa Geographic/ Uganda/ Rwanda/DRC

Christian Boix of Africa Geographic was able to design a fantastic, unique and authentic trip understand the theme of primate viewing. It included so much more. Apart from the wonderful itinerary, I found the actual activities and lodging to be very smartly selected and no say failed to provide a wealth of amazing discoveries. I felt safe, loved connecting with the drivers and would never have had the opportunity to connect with the people I did, without using Africa Geographic. All the members of my team were reliable, informed and lovely to be with. I highly recommend using them to design a one in a lifetime experience.

Thank you, Emily, for your kind and thoughtful review! We’re delighted that Christian crafted such an authentic journey for you, offering the absolute best of primate viewing and so much more. And what an epic safari this was – from trekking through the forested hills of Volcanoes National Park to visiting Lake Kivu, exploring Kahuzi Biega National Park, and crossing Africa’s highest canopy walkway in Nyungwe National Park. All this while having the chance to see golden monkeys, chimpanzees and pied colobus monkeys, as well as mountain AND lowland gorillas – wow!

We are glad you enjoyed the expertly selected activities, carefully chosen accommodation, and meaningful connections with local guides and communities.

Knowing you felt safe and enriched by your experience is the ultimate reward for us. We can’t wait to help design your next unforgettable adventure!

Africageo started and ended strong

Africageo travel group started and ended strong. Our travel consultant, Nadia, was detailed, responsive and thorough in plans for our recent safari- this is our second with her. The flights from Johannesburg to Madikwe Reserve went ahead without a hitch. The accommodations in Madikwe Hills were impeccable. The rooms were clean, filled with amenities that were a touch above. This is a wonderful lodge with gifted guides and trackers.- kudus to Sam and Herman. We saw 2 cheetah kills within 3 days- and Garden of Eden like settings with a wide variety of animals. We spent 4 days in Cape Town and didn’t scratch the surface of things to do. We did happen upon 2 puff adders mating in the Kirstenbosch Gardens. We spent 4 nights in Mala-Mala Sable Camp abutting Kruger National Park. The accommodations were wonderful. We stayed in a luxurious cabin and the Lion’s Den (a large living space and two bedrooms.) Every amenity was included as well as a well-stocked bar. Our guide, Deon, became part of the family and was excited as we were for every leopard that we saw- 11 different ones and all the wee creatures that came out to see us. Nadia made sure that we had boarding passes and contact information for every step of the way.
The website for accessing travel arrangements has improved over the years however, some updates could make it easier to navigate.

My husband and I celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary on a 2 week safari in SouthAfrica, Zimbabwe, and Botswana. Our travel agent, Chantal Young, created an outstanding itinerary to meet our needs.

Best of Malawi in 8 days

Best of Malawi in 8 days with African Geographic
What an incredible trip! We are experienced Southern African travellers and wanted to see something new. We chose Malawi on recommendation of African Geographic and it was certainly no disappointment. We visited 3 parks, met interesting people, learned a lot about Malawi and experienced some wonders of Nature such as a boat trip on the Shire River. Well worth it and thank you for looking after us during the whole trip! We surely will book again.

First timers...Namibia self drive

Fantastic three weeks in Namibia - with some trepidation, we put our trust in AG to arrange a self driving tour. On short notice, during a busy tourist season, Stefan organized a tour that reflected our wishes to see a variety of landscape, wildlife, with a mix of accommodations all on a modest budget. Despite a six hour time difference, he was very responsive via text, email and phone and kept in touch with us throughout the tour. What great customer service! expectations exceeded...we wouldn't change a thing - well, hopefully next time stay longer...

Our Custom Safari Was A Perfect Fit!

Stefan created a perfect safari experience for our family. We loved staying at the Buffalo Ridge Lodge in Madikwe knowing it was managed and staffed by the local community. The lodge staff and safari guides were outstanding.
Besides seeing a huge array of wildlife (including some that came on to the property) we enjoyed visiting the local high school and interacting with the soon to be graduates.
All in all, we spent 4 wonderful nights enjoying the food, ambiance and our lovely chalets in between the 10 jeep trips 'discovering' all the wildlife the reserve has to offer - we didn't want to leave.
Working with Stefan at AG to plan the trip was seamless and we greatly appreciated his flexibility and creative solutions throughout the process.

An incredible trip…

Christian and AG were incredibly helpful in helping me navigate planning and booking my first safari. Without an original clear direction of even what country to visit, Christian was easy to communicate with, very responsive, extremely knowledgeable and not afraid to give his opinion, which I valued. He was extremely patient with me as I navigated lots of different options and crafted a trip unique and personal to me and my partner. We had the most amazing time in Kenya visiting Mara Naboisho and Borana Conservancy. Both offered incredible but varied experiences which meant for a well rounded trip that we loved. Thank you Christian and AG for all the help.

Christian at AG was brilliant in arranging an amazing last minute Sabi Sands safari trip for two dear friends honeymoon. When I say last minute - it was within a week of travelling! Christian reacted and communicated clearly and very quickly. Not only did they have such a memorable time but the holiday also helps contribute to many of AG's campaigns, lion collaring and saving pangolins.
