2026 Spring Galloping Gnus Newsletter

2026 has been a milestone start!

Our Safari Soirée Anniversary Celebration commemorated 40 years of The Africa Adventure Company. It was truly special to share the evening with so many of our travelers, partners, and friends who have been part of our journey through Africa over the decades. Relive the evening with our @40 Soirée video!

We are excited to announce our 24th Annual Client Photo Competition results! Our love affair with the African bush is woven through every experience captured in these photos. The gallery features outstanding Winners and Honorable Mentions!

Check out the selection of 5 Family Travel Experiences that continue to inspire the once in a lifetime wildlife experience while staying in spectacular camps and lodges. A decadent safari tent with endless views of the Serengeti Plains? Individual villas on the banks of the Zambezi above Victoria Falls? Perhaps an exclusive five-star lodge ideal for a multi-generational safari in the northern Samburu territory of Kenya? Or on the floodplains of the Okavango Delta in Botswana?

For our intrepid clients seeking a less-visited park or a compelling experience, enjoy reviewing Mark’s Expedition Collection that highlights some iconic safaris for adventure seekers. There’s poetry in Africa’s wild spaces, and one of the reasons a remote safari destination is so enthralling. We are also stepping into 2027 Group departures with early Calving Migration trips in February 2027.

We welcome the recognition by both Travel+Leisure + Conde Nast as Top Travel Specialists for Africa. We believe this reflects the teamwork of our travel designers at the Africa Adventure Company!

What makes a Safari? It’s the people, the details, and the passion behind the scenes. From customized itineraries and thoughtfully chosen accommodations to dedicated guides, we create unforgettable safaris with the highest level of personal service. Enjoy reading our recent Client Trip Reports – our insider travel advisors!

Most of all, thank you to our travelers for being part of our safari family. Your passion for Africa and its wildlife is what makes this community so special, and we are incredibly grateful for the journeys we have shared together.

We look forward to many more adventures in the years ahead.

Warmest regards and wild wishes,

The Noltings (Alison, Mark, Miles and Nick) and the AAC Team!
