About Hosted Africa
At Hosted Africa, we’re not just a safari agency – we’re your personal hosts on an unforgettable journey through Africa’s rich beauty and diversity. Our team of local hosts, all born and raised in South Africa, have an intimate connection to the country’s stunning landscapes, abundant wildlife, and vibrant culture. They live and breathe Africa, thriving on sharing their passion and engaging with guests.
Having spent most of their lives exploring Southern and Central Africa, our hosts know the best places to visit for an authentic experience. When you choose a hosted trip with us, you’re not simply visiting Africa – you’re immersing yourself in an enriched journey.
Added to this, we secure local guides or rangers at the safari camps, who ensure up to date and unique insights, personal stories and a deep connection to the places you’ll visit. The difference is in the details, and with Hosted Africa, you’ll see, feel, and understand the continent in a way no one else can offer. The friendships made in our groups and the comraderie of being together will make you friends for life.
