Safari stories, information, inspiration and so much more...

Africa is not just a place you visit – it’s a place that stays with you. In the rustle of dry grass, the glint of an elephant’s eye, the hush before a lion’s roar, and the laughter shared around a campfire, there are stories waiting to be told.


The Ubon Safari Diaries are where we share them.


Here, you’ll find dispatches from the field, behind-the-scenes moments, and honest reflections from guides, travellers and local experts who know Africa intimately. From conservation insights to trip highlights, packing tips to personal essays, this is our space to celebrate the richness and rhythm of the continent we call home.

Wherever you are in your journey – planning, dreaming, reminiscing – we hope these stories bring you closer to the spirit of Africa.


So take a moment. Slow down. Read a while. And let the adventure begin.
