Luxury Safari Specialist

Up close with the elephants in Tanzania!
Up close with the elephants in Tanzania!

Hey there, fellow adventurer! I'm Ruchi, your go-to travel advisor for the most unforgettable luxury African safaris. Imagine being surrounded by the untamed beauty of Africa's wilderness, where every moment awakens your senses and leaves an everlasting imprint on your soul!

I've personally explored six incredible African countries on safari - Tanzania, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana, and Namibia. Trust me, each one is a treasure trove of mesmerizing landscapes and jaw-dropping wildlife encounters. It's like stepping into a whole new world where lions roam freely, elephants grace you with their majestic presence, and giraffes tower over the horizon.

Now, here's the thing: a lot of people think safaris are a seasonal thing, but that's just a myth! Africa's magic doesn't depend on a specific time of the year. Whether it's the blazing sun of summer or the gentle embrace of winter, there's always something extraordinary happening in the wild.

As your travel advisor, I believe in the power of local connections. I work hand in hand with partners in each country to make sure your safari is as authentic as it gets. It's all about diving into the heart of Africa's rich cultures, experiencing their warmth, and savoring their traditions.

Oh, and let's not forget about families and honeymooners! I've planned incredible safaris for both, so rest assured, your little ones and newlywed hearts are in good hands. In fact, my own 9-year-old son has been my safari buddy on all my adventures. So I totally get how to keep everyone smiling and engaged!

Ready to embark on the journey of a lifetime? Let's create your dream luxury African safari, where every moment is an adventure waiting to happen. Get in touch with me now, and let's start planning your incredible safari getaway!

Honeymoon Safari

Reviewed By Chris - Washington, DC | Traveled to Tanzania ~ Africa
Ruchi is simply the most knowledgeable, professional, efficient, proactive and helpful travel agent you'll ever work with. I've booked 3 vacations with her (domestic and international). The first vacation, a safari in Tanzania ending in Zanzibar, I booked with her was my honeymoon and it was everything my wife and I could ask for and then some. As soon as we arrived at the hotel, they addressed us with our names, she had champagne waiting for us in the room. She even had a picture of our dog framed in the room. She puts in high-level of detail and treats us as if we are her only clients. I love the app she provides for the itinerary. It makes traveling that much easier. Can't thank her enough for her amazing service and attention to detail for all our trips!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends

Memorable trip for my daughter's 16th birthday

Reviewed By Heather - New York | Traveled to Paris ~ France ~ Europe
We were planning a very special trip to Europe for my daughter's 16th birthday and having Ruchi's expertise made the whole experience seamless! Ruchi had all the best tips and was dedicated to making sure that all the details were covered. She knew how to leverage local specialists and tour guides when appropriate and supported every aspect of our trip from booking hotels to ground transfers to making dinner reservations! I will certainly look to Ruchi the next time we are planning a trip and will be recommending her to all my friends!
