Your first journey to Africa.
For those arriving on the continent for the very first time, the unknown can feel overwhelming. That’s natural. But when your journey begins with &Beyond, you’re in safe hands. From seamless logistics to generous comfort, every detail is considered to ensure your experience is not only safe and secure, but richer, deeper, and more transformative than you ever imagined.
I once met a couple on safari at &Beyond Ngorongoro Crater Lodge—Andrea and Jerry—who were celebrating a milestone birthday in a place Andrea had long dreamed of seeing. Over a picnic breakfast on the Crater floor, Jerry shared a quiet observation: “It’s not often you get more than you expect.” And that’s just it. From the details you see to the ones you don’t, the &Beyond experience is designed to give more—more care, more meaning, more than you thought to hope for.
At &Beyond, it’s often the smallest details that stay with you. The precision of SWAROVSKI OPTIK binoculars as you scan the horizon. A perfectly timed bush cappuccino. The welcome ritual of an evening sundowner. From redesigned safari vehicles to beautifully curated boutiques, exclusive Thule luggage, custom Guide’s Journals and our flagship print magazine, Bateleur. Each touchpoint is considered. Not as extras, simply as part of how we host.
