What do a freediver, a plant medicine expert, a former safari ranger and a mountain guide have in common?
⁣
They are South Africa's true insiders, each a master of their craft and part of a circle our advisors have spent years nurturing. Through them, we open experiences you won't find anywhere else.

- Steve has filmed for Netflix and Disney, and guides you into the hush of the kelp forest, where Cape fur seals drift and play.

- Caren has spent 37 years with plant medicine, and turns fynbos into a slow, steaming ritual.

- Shaun traded twenty years of safaris for open flame, and his restaurant, Vuur, has earned a place among the world's best steakhouses.

- Ozzy leads you into leopard country, where camera traps identify each cat by its spots, then pours his signature coffee under the stars.

Why private reserves change what a safari feels like.
⁣
In South Africa's Greater Kruger, wildlife moves the way it always has. Here's what makes the difference:
- Reserves once fenced now open directly into Kruger National Park.
- Lions, leopards, elephants move freely along their old migration routes.
- Guides here can go off-road, a freedom the national park doesn't allow.
- Exclusive-use lodges like Jaci's Sabi House host just six guests at a time.
- At Cheetah Plains, electric Land Cruisers move as silently as the wildlife.

This is what our journey design is built on: not just where you stay, but how much of the wild is truly yours alone.
Some encounters are better left unscheduled.

More than 1,400 miles of the Great Barrier Reef are only reachable by water, which is exactly the point.

⁣Aboard the Aroona, our guests navigate the Ribbon Reefs and Cod Hole, snorkelling with sea turtles and, in June and July, dwarf minke whales. Larger groups aboard the G3 sail from Cairns to St. Crispin Reef and beyond, stopping to learn Aboriginal history at Cooktown's Rainbow Serpent cave.

At Rothschild Beyond, this is what island-hopping should mean: a private yacht replacing the itinerary, not just the transport.

Meet Travel Designer, Pam.
⁣
Born in Cape Town, South Africa. Nearly 20 years in the industry. A love for wildlife that started with her first safari at 16, and hasn't slowed since.

Her specialty? Immersive African journeys, from family safaris to adventure escapes, shaped by deep regional knowledge and a commitment to conservation-minded travel.

On gorilla trekking, she doesn't hesitate: "For small, exclusive groups, we love booking François, who worked with Dian Fossey in the 1980s. Having him lead our private clients' trek elevates the entire experience. He is genuinely exceptional."

Some paths are only ever truly known by those who've walked them before.

New from the blog: in New Zealand, the best view is rarely from the ground.
⁣
Above Mount Tarawera, the site of the largest eruption in the country's living memory, a helicopter reveals crater lakes and craggy peaks no road can reach. It's also how our guests arrive at a chilled bottle of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, mid-air, with the Southern Alps below.

This is why we build New Zealand journeys around access, not distance. The right route changes what a place can show you.

Fiji isn't a stopover. It's the plot twist.

Manta rays, soft coral reefs, private islands reached by seaplane. This is what happens when you skip the mainland and go remote, straight from our founder Leora Rothschild's latest research trip.
This is Rothschild Beyond. Ask us where to stay.

New on our blog: what it truly means to travel with intention.
⁣
Safari's greatest luxury is not the sighting, it is the stillness that precedes it.
Since 1998, longtime guest Doug Andonian has returned to East Africa every year - from hair-raising encounters with Cape buffalo in Tanzania to quiet hours with a pregnant lioness, an evening lit only by campfire and stars over the Zambezi. His journeys, later chronicled in From Where Lions Speak, span canoe routes down the river and forest walks alongside the Hadzabe, one of the world's oldest hunter-gatherer communities.

This is the perspective our designers hold closest: intention over itinerary. A journey shaped not by what should be seen, but by what brings genuine joy - a matriarch at dawn, a lion's roar in the dark, a sky without a single city light.

New on our blog: the cities we tend to rush past on our way to the bush.
⁣
A journey to Africa doesn't begin at the first game drive, it begins the moment the plane touches down.
At Cape Town's Mount Nelson, this idea takes physical form. South African designer Thebe Magugu, marking ten years of his celebrated fashion house, has crafted a two-story suite on the hotel's storied Palm Avenue, layered in indigo, emerald, and hand-sketched wallpaper tracing the South African landscape. Next door, Magugu House hosts a rotating gallery where artists Zanele Muholi and Zizipho Poswa exhibit work on craft, identity, and inheritance.
For us, this is where journey design begins: not at the airstrip, but in the city itself, where fashion, art, and hospitality set the tone for everything that follows.
Where does your Africa story begin?

Today our very own Detwiler, Travel Designer at Rothschild Safaris, placed 13th in the 2026 IWWF World Water Ski Championships.

What an extraordinary achievement.

Ruthie has always inspired us here at Rothschild. Her commitment to crafting exceptional journeys for our travelers is matched only by her relentless dedication to her sport. Somehow, between designing world-class safaris, she finds the time and drive to compete against the best water skiers on the planet.

Ruthie, you are a force of nature. The world may say 13th, to us, you're number one. Your passion, discipline, humility, and grit inspire every one of us.

We couldn't be prouder to have you as part of the Rothschild Safaris family.

Congratulations, Ruthie-our champion!
