A safari, the Swahili word for journey, is many things – from the excitement of setting off as the sun rises over the African plains in search of a pride of lions, to sipping a G&T while the sun sets once more revealing the myriad of stars above. It is one of life’s great adventures. We are here to make sure you get the most out of it.
At Bonamy we firmly believe that to make the most of your safari it’s important to benefit from the expertise of Africa’s true specialists, the safari guides (also known as rangers). By booking your safari with Bonamy, you will benefit from the experience of a guide right from the planning process.
Through Bonamy you will have access to a large network of the best Private Guides Africa has to offer. The guides we associate ourselves with and recommend are all incredibly experienced and very well regarded within the industry.
We offer first-hand knowledge of a huge network of safari lodges across Africa. We will only ever recommend a lodge we have not only visited before, but spent time at to get a full picture of the hospitality and wildlife offering.
Choosing when to go to a particular lodge is as important as choosing which lodge. We will advise you where to go depending on the time of year and recent updates on animal movements, habitats and seasonal changes.
Our commitment to ensuring you get access to whatever your heart desires: playing the saxophone as the sun sets or just a hammock set up overlooking the slow ebb of a wild river.
Through our partners, you will at all times be able to contact a local agent who will be able to assist you in an emergency.
"This has undoubtedly been one of the best holidays we could ever have hoped for! Toby organised an incredible trip for us where we experienced an amazing safari in the most wonderful surroundings and accommodation."
“Toby's knowledge, sense of humour and above all, passion, create a heady cocktail that for us has yet to be equalled. Lyn and I unreservedly recommend and endorse Toby and Bonamy to anyone who has a passion for safaris that needs to be fed or indeed anyone who is contemplating their first African Bush experience.“
We work on a commission basis, meaning that you pay no more and sometimes even less booking through us than if you had gone direct.
5% of the commission we earn from a trip through Bonamy will be donated to the fantastic charity Rhinos Without Borders.
