We are delighted to formally welcome one of Africa’s finest luxury safari travel companies as an exciting new member of The Luxury Network UK.

Welcome to Smokesilver Travel, a specialist Africa travel company that puts ‘experiences’ at the centre of your travel plans.

Briefly, cast your mind back over the holidays you’ve been on recently. Which are the ones that still stick in your mind as being exceptional? Look a little closer. What were the key ingredients that make them stand out? What were you doing when you found yourself in a particular place that simply took your breath away?

At Smokesilver Travel we believe the 5 most important ingredients to a successful safari are….

Our Knowledge & Service

We’ve tried and tested all the safari experiences we recommend, to ensure they all have something ‘SMOKESILVER’ about them. Our aim is help you find the experience that you’re looking for and spend time tailoring it to your needs – the right time of year, the right length of time, the right activities for you. It’s a bit like a jigsaw – lots of pieces that need to be carefully assembled. But from our experience the time put in to preparation always pays off in the end.

The People You Travel With

The importance of this can often be forgotten – we don’t want to appear to be telling you who you should travel with. That’s up to you. But we will carefully recommend the right experiences in the best African destinations to suit you and everyone you’re travelling with.

What Do You Really Want Do With Your Time?

Over recent years much emphasis has been put on hotels, bedrooms, bathrooms etc… Don’t get us wrong we know how important they are but we like to focus first on what you’re actually going to do on your safari. Once we have a clear idea of this we will recommend the most suitable places for you to explore. We believe this is the best way to go about planning your safari – a lodge with fancy bathrooms in their brochure may not feel as quite as great in reality if the wildlife or cultural experience simply isn’t there for you.

Your Guides

We specialise in recommending the best experiences in Africa – safaris where you get out of 4×4 vehicles and do something active. To ensure the highest standard of activities we have cherry picked the best operators across Africa – in other words you will be looked after by the BEST GUIDES in the continent. These guides are at the ‘top of their game’ in the activity they spend their lives doing. They’re passionate about it and know the areas that they operate in like the back of their hands. Added to that they have to be great hosts with interesting stories to tell – you’ll be spending a lot of time with them – and that means they must have a sense of humour…

Doing Something Smokesilver

We believe Smokesilver takes a different, more refreshing, approach to travel than many of the other mainstream tour operators. Not only do we focus on the activities you’ll be doing on safari but we also promote the Smokesilver way of doing things. Feeling a strong, grounded, connection with the environment that you’re in – feeling that you’re exploring the great outdoors.

It’s very simple to start planning your safari. Just give us a call and we’ll guide you through our trip planning process.
