How CU SAFARIS designed, coordinated and personally managed a two-week African adventure for a family of ten, creating exceptional experiences while ensuring every generation was taken care of. 10 Guests | 3 Generations | 5 Children | 2 Weeks in Africa
Your journey should feel as individual as you are.
No two journeys should ever feel the same, because no two travellers are the same.
At CUSAFARIS, we begin by understanding you.
We listen before we recommend. We consider not only where you should go, but when to go, how each destination should connect, the pace that will suit you and which experiences will genuinely mean something to you.
Every itinerary we design carries something of ourselves with it: our knowledge, our relationships, our attention to detail and our commitment to creating experiences that are as meaningful as they are memorable.
Because while destinations may inspire a journey, it is the people behind it who ultimately shape the experience.

There's more than a journey The most memorable trips often bring together very different experiences
A safari might lead into the food, wine, art and coastline of Cape Town. An East African journey may end beside the Indian Ocean. A family escape might centre entirely around Mauritius. The experience is never determined by a predefined package. It is built around what matters to you.

If you’re looking for totally unique, daily surprises, an itinerary loaded with anticipation and “good life” elements one after the other—Completely Unique will fit the bill. There’s nothing quite like it, and it’s truly the best safari I’ve experienced. “Completely Unique” is the right name.

While I’ve been super lucky to trapeze into the Med at the Hotel du Cap, stay at Villa Rockstar in St. Barths, and dance till dawn on the Ulukartel yacht in the Turkish Riviera before hopping on a plane to Paris to meet the guy with the power to shut down Versailles for a private afternoon stroll, it was the experience that I had on safari recently with CUS...
