Vibrant culture
Our love for Africa, wildlife, and adventure brings us together, even though so many work remotely, and our shared passion for celebrating Africa and doing good ensures a very strong internal bond and ‘Ikigai‘. Our senior team members have been with us for over a decade, ensuring a sense of longevity and permanence.

We go way beyond crafting experiential safaris for our guests.

And, we generate donations for worthy grassroots causes. These are at the core of everything we do. Our Manifesto says it all: About teamAG – Africa Geographic.
Another example of how deep we go is Ukuri, our partnership with African Parks to market safari camps and lodges that have tangible, measurable benefits for conservation and communities.
