Enjoy Your Solo Vacation
East Africa welcomes solo travelers, no exceptions. The region is safe and hospitable for independent travelers of every background, whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned solo adventurer.
A fully private trip build around one.
- Private vehicles, guides, and accommodation, for your entire trip. You’re not sharing a seat, a schedule, or a room with strangers. From the moment you land to the moment you fly out, the vehicle is yours, the guide is yours, and the pace is set by you, not a group.
- Armed, vetted guides at every park. Every guide leading you through Uganda, Rwanda, or Kenya’s parks is thoroughly screened and carries armed protection where required by park authorities, so you’re in experienced, trusted hands from trailhead to lodge.
- Trip insurance included. Every solo trip comes with insurance coverage built in, so you’re protected for the unexpected without having to arrange it yourself.
- Your belongings, looked after. From luggage in transit to valuables at the lodge, your property is treated as a priority throughout the trip, not an afterthought.
- Food you can trust, wherever the trip takes you. Meals are prepared and served to consistent safety standards, whether you’re eating at a lodge, on the road, or out on a game drive.
- Lodges chosen by people who’ve actually stayed there. Our accommodation recommendations aren’t generic star ratings, they’re informed by feedback from recent travelers who’ve stayed at these exact properties, so you know what you’re booking before you arrive.
Solo Trip Expectations
Traveling solo doesn’t mean traveling alone, unless you want to. Boat cruises are shared with other travelers, and group activities like primate tracking, community visits, and birdwatching naturally put you alongside fellow guests. Many solo travelers make lasting connections at the lodge or on the trail, even on a fully private itinerary.
Pricing, straight up. A single supplement fee applies during high season, and is usually waived in low season. We don’t pair solo travelers together to cut costs. Your trip stays private throughout, so the itinerary, pace, and stops are entirely yours to shape.
