where we operate

Fitzroy Travel excels at navigating the varied terrains of Africa, providing seamless safari experiences in some of the continent’s most extraordinary locations.

Fitzroy are true specialists in accessing the wilderness. They know where to go and importantly, when to go there. Highly recommended.

how it works

Once your journey is underway, we remain on hand to ensure every detail proceeds as planned. Our teams will welcome you at the airport and we will ensure that accommodations, guides, and drivers are informed of any special requests, interests or occasions. Should any matter require attention, we are available at all hours to assist promptly.

Our approach begins with a direct conversation. Speaking by phone or meeting in person allows us to explore your travel goals, interests, dates, and other considerations on a deeper level.

Once your itinerary is agreed, we handle every arrangement, from flights and permits to transfers and special requests, so that everything is confirmed and in place well before you travel.

Our teams welcome you on arrival and stay on hand throughout, ensuring accommodations, guides and drivers are briefed and every day unfolds exactly as planned.
