Welcome

Cape to Cairo is a boutique tour operator with a lifetime of African travel experience. We began with our overland safaris in Botswana in 1984 when Maun was a frontier town at the end of two hundred miles of dirt road and have been a tour operator specializing in Africa since 1996.

Our specialty is providing our clients with customized tours designed by the most experienced professionals in the business.

And, Cape to Cairo’s unmatched airline experience will get you to Africa and within Africa, reliably and affordably.
