15Years leading
expeditions in Africa

Born from a love
of wild Africa

HAO Expedition & Safari was founded by a small team of naturalists and wilderness guides who spent decades living and working across East Africa's most remote landscapes. We built this company around one conviction: the best safaris are led by people who are genuinely in love with the land.

Our guides are fluent in the rhythms of the bush — they know where the elephants drink at midday, where the leopards sleep when it's hot, and which ridge catches the light at golden hour. They share that knowledge the way a friend would, not a tour operator.

Conservation First

A portion of every booking funds community conservation programmes across our operating areas.

Fully Tailored

No fixed departure dates. Every itinerary is built around your schedule, pace, and passions.

Small Groups Only

We limit all groups to preserve the integrity of wildlife encounters and the wilderness itself.

Safari is about
how it feels

We obsess over every detail of your journey — from the campfire conversations with your guide to the way your tent frames the morning light. The wild is magnificent; our role is to make you feel completely at home within it.

01

Expert-Led Always

Every expedition is led by a certified naturalist guide with a minimum of eight years in the field.

02

Handpicked Camps

We partner only with camps that share our commitment to low-impact, high-experience hospitality.

03

Real Flexibility

Safari doesn't run on a schedule. We adapt in real time — chasing sightings, extending drives, changing routes as the wilderness dictates.
