For The Love of
African Travel

Africa Nova Travel is a specialist African Travel Design House based in Cape Town, South Africa. We design journeys across Southern Africa, East Africa, and the Indian Ocean Islands for international travellers who want to experience this continent with depth, intention and care.

Our clients are well-travelled. They know the difference between a journey that was well-organised and one that was well-designed. They are not looking for a great African itinerary. They are looking for the right one, built around who they are, who they travel with, how they travel, and what this particular journey means for them.

We design a select number of journeys each year. Every one begins with a conversation and ends with something that could not have been made for anyone else.

What our clients have to say

Teixeira Family, Portugal

Teixeira Family, Portugal

We were amazed at how knowledgeable our tour guides were, they went the extra mile to ensure that we got top service from them and also really interesting info on the sights, not just the usual tourist blurb! Also they made sure that we experienced a lot of ‘local’ spots to get the real feel of the destinations, we would never have found those places on our own. We requested a guide who was fluent in Portuguese and we were a little nervous about what we would get, but very fluent he was! When we didn’t have a guide with us, the Africa Nova Travel team were always at hand to recommend a great restaurant and insisted on doing the bookings for us. They also solved any problems that we ran into along the way, big or small. They were very professional and helpful; we could tell that a lot of love and care goes into what they do. Simply superb!

Why Africa Nova Travel?

For the Love of African Travel

For the Love of African Travel

Africa is not like other destinations. It asks for a different quality of attention and a different quality of preparation. We have spent years building knowledge of this continent: its lodges, its guides, its rhythms, its regions, and the particular ways it reveals itself to the traveller who arrives ready to receive it.
For the Love of What We Do

For the Love of What We Do

We are based in Cape Town, South Africa, inside Africa, not outside it. We know the suppliers, the lodges, the guides, and the logistical realities of African travel from direct experience. We do not sell what we have not seen. We recommend what we trust.
For the Love of Others

For the Love of Others

Travel, when done with intention, gives something back to the places it passes through. We choose our suppliers with care, not only for quality, but for integrity. The lodges and operators we work with are invested in conservation and in the communities around them. That is not a marketing position. It is a condition of working with us.
