Introduction
Exclusiv Safaris is a family-owned tour operator specialising
in tailor-made tours, tours for small groups of 4-12 persons, as well as for larger groups on requests. We offer
a variety of tours: from short safaris to the Kruger
National Park, to extended tours throughout South Africa,
Namibia, Botswana, Zambia and Mozambique. During the
past 21 years our tours have become well known and popular
because of the personal way in which we operate, treating
each member of the group as our special guest. We meet
them personally on arrival at the airport, accompany
them expertly and safely from day one throughout the
tour until we bid them farewell at the airport on the
last day - more often than not, friends for a lifetime.
Recently we have expanded into the Swedish market and also formed a joint venture with the South African inbound tour operator Around Africa, for the past 17 years wellknown in the French tourist market
Our guests travel comfortably in luxury, airconditioned microbuses or luxury coaches. Another
unique characteristic of our tours is the fact that
because of the small groups, we are able to stay in
3-4 star owner-run guesthouses and small lodges instead
of in the more impersonal hotels. In this way our guests
meet and interact personally with a variety of South
Africans, Namibians and the other countries that we
visit, enjoying the warm hospitality for which Southern
Africa is well known.
Who are we?
Exclusiv Safaris was founded 21 years ago by the Dutch/South
African Van Nieuwkerk family.
It is still family-owned and run by Henk and Corrie,
son Chris and daughter Linda. A team of hand picked, specialist
guides, each one specially chosen because they fit very
well into the unique way in which we operate, complements
us. Together we form a dedicated team of enthusiastic
South Africans with a vast, intimate knowledge of our
country, its history and diversity of cultures, abundant
wildlife and breathtaking beauty of nature.
Since its foundation, Exclusiv Safaris is a member of
SATSA (Southern Africa Tourism Services Association)
and as such complies with all legal requirements regarding
tourism in South Africa. All necessary permits for local
as well as cross-border travel are in place and we keep
our late-model vehicles in spotless condition. In respect
of accident and passenger liability insurance we comply
with all the compulsory regulations, and our vehicles
are insured for far more than is prescribed by law.
As far as financial matters are concerned, we have
an excellent record and are well known for our sound
financial management - proof of which is our longstanding
relationship with several overseas touroperaters and
local members of the tourism industry.
You may rest assured that you will be in good hands
while on holiday with Exclusiv Safaris!
