Extraordinary Journeys (Re)Connecting People and the Wild.
In Ancient Greek, the oikos means home, and hides in the root of modern words like ecosystem and ecology – the science of the home, the study of nature. As lovers of nature and art, we found relevance in the figure of Odysseus, a hero who spent his life trying to come home, losing himself along the way of unmeasured pride.
Let us show you our home, as we plan and guide extraordinary wilderness experiences across Africa. Let us help you unleash your creativity as you get lost in the golden pools of light on the banks of the Zambezi, as you dine under the inky starry sky filled with African magic, as you breathe in the bush and let its musky smell enchant you.
From timeless luxury to rugged off the beaten path travel, we will make your safari dreams happen.
An Odyssey is not just a journey home, it’s a journey to the self, and a journey to our true home, Nature. So travel with us. Let us show you our home, and help you unleash your creativity as you get lost in the golden pools of light on the banks of the Zambezi, as you dine under the inky starry sky filled with African magic, as you breathe in the bush and let its musky smell enchant you.

“While the ship, as in a field four stallions drawing a chariot all break together at the stroke of the whiplash, and lifting high their feet lightly beat out their path, so the stern of this ship would lift and the creaming wave behind her boiled amain in the thunderous crash of the sea” – Odysseus’s ship, given to him by Alkinoös of the Phaiakians, leaves on his voyage home – The Odyssey, Book XIV
