You are braver than you believe


Rugged or refined, simple or opulent, a VAST experience is so much more than just another safari destination or luxury hotel.

Maybe it’s a life-changing journey through East Africa, or an ‘adventure-lite’ in South Africa, home to wine, extraordinary landscapes and iconic wildlife, and award-winning cuisine? Or perhaps it’s simply re-connecting with the natural rhythms of the world and recharging your body and mind, by the ocean or in the desert?

Whatever it is, you can be sure that a VAST experience is authentic and rooted in honesty. They look beyond the ordinary and always, always contribute more to the world than they take away…

VAST is a curated collection of lodges and camps, hotels and island escapes inspired by visionary owners, who have crafted authentic experiences entirely committed to a sustainable future. Together with our preferred VAST African travel specialists we are the most trusted resource for curating impactful journeys across Africa.
