Africa Beckons has been in operation since 2006 as a travel wholesaler that concentrates on delivering private and personalized customized travel requirements to clientele looking to experience South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Mozambique, Malawi, Zanzibar, as well as East Africa. Our core focus is world-class service for the individual, family markets as well as small private groups looking to take home experiences and memories of their recent journeys.

OFFSETTING CARBON FOOTPRINT

Besides offering a unique range of travel related services to guests, Africa Beckons also has a firm commitment to better the environment and to encourage other travel related service providers to do the same. One such area is calculating the Carbon Footprint (how much Carbon Dioxide is released into the environment as a result of air travel for example) of every guest's travel itinerary. For every 500kgs of carbon dioxide our guests generate, we automatically purchase local indigenous trees which are planted around South Africa. These trees minimize the effect these travels have had on the environment, whilst also relating local employment as well as facilitating a culture of environmental awareness and protection within local communities around South Africa.

Africa Beckons prides itself in being able to offer travelers preferential rates and specific added value in all realms of tourism, ranging from car hire and luxury train itineraries to privately guided safaris, personalized fly in safaris, accommodation, sightseeing and more.
