Baobab Expeditions was founded in 2005 by a team of travel professionals who combined their years of experience in the travel industry and their passion for travel to create a unique approach to exploring Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Europe, North America and South America. In our eyes travel should be amazing, exciting, intriguing, rejuvenating and memorable.
Today, Baobab Expeditions (the trading name of The Adventure Portfolio Ltd) has evolved and grown to become one of the leading discovery expedition companies, with offices in London, New York and Cape Town. Dedicated to providing our guests with the planet’s greatest adventure experiences, Baobab Expeditions offers specialist safari, wildlife, nature and tribal expeditions rooted in the philosophy of providing guests with our “E factor”- Exceptional Exploratory Experiences. In a world dominated by maps and the beaten track, our discovery expeditions bring back the element of exploration. We turn travellers into explorers.
A recent exciting addition are our unique tribal expeditions, which give our guests the rare opportunity to travel where very few have been before, by trekking into remote areas and spending time with indigenous communities. You could be using blowpipes with the Penan in the heart of the Borneo jungle, observing a very rare spiritual dance (Fire Dance) with the Baining people of Papua New Guinea or experiencing the Berber culture deep among the sand dunes and deserts of southern Morocco.
Our in-depth knowledge of the destinations offered enables us to recommend and design private and group itineraries to suit your particular travel wishes and desire for adventure. We meticulously plan and create each itinerary in conversation with you, resulting in explorations as unique and varied as our travellers’ needs. So, whether you want to sit amongst a family of mountain gorillas, reach out and pet a grey whale, or encounter a giant polar bear up close, our team of experts will know how to turn dreams into realities.
For further information, please contact us, we would love to speak with you so we can share our passion for exploring the world.
We look forward to welcoming you on an exploration without frontiers.
