The Somak Holidays luxury collection is a handpicked selection of the best five-star properties and itineraries we feature.

The unremitting hospitality of the African people may be well-known globally, but if you are searching for a shot of extra opulence in your exotic safari cocktail, then The Somak Holidays’ luxury collection could be your perfect tonic. 

Watch one of the world’s most incredible spectacles from your very own private veranda, as millions of zebras, wilderbeast and antelope flock together to begin the Great Migration. If the astonishing views leave you in need of a break, then simply stagger into your spacious, luxury bedroom, complete with four-poster bed and nice trimmings. Order in some quality cuisine from your personal butler, and feel the warmth of the Savannah breeze as it gently wafts in.

Meanwhile, sand worshippers will adore a stay in one of Mnemba Island’s beachside bungalows. The secluded, private island’s beauty is matched by its grandeur, with artisan-decorated, wood-built accommodation overlooking the shallow turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, teeming with marine life waiting to be exclusively explored by you. 

For those who enjoy staying active, our luxury itineraries can provide memorable experiences with a comfort usually reserved for royalty. Whether you want to gain a new perspective of the country, easily spotting all of the Big 5 from a helicopter, or want to sample the very best South African Pinotage from award-winning vineyards, at Somak we can make even your most luxurious African safari dreams a reality.
