Travel Butlers are safari specialists based in Weybridge, Surrey in the United Kingdom. We help hundreds of people plan and book their trip to Africa each year, and all of our consultants are experts with at least 10 years experience of the region.
It was then that they had their lightbulb moment, and had the idea to build a company to help people from all over the world enjoy the best wildlife experiences of Southern Africa. Once this idea had taken hold, there was no going back. As Paul says, "We knew immediately that we wanted to become real experts in our field, so we spent a year travelling throughout Southern Africa on a hunt to discover the perfect locations and safari holidays to offer our customers. We even trained as safari guides ourselves in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve in order to really understand the ways of the African bush and its abundant wildlife. As you can probably tell by now, we don’t do things by halves!"
Initially the company specialised in South Africa and Namibia, where Tracey and Paul felt they could offer the most comprehensive advice. Over the years, we've expanded to sell the whole of Southern Africa as well as Kenya, Tanzania and the Indian Ocean. Tracey, Paul, and the other members of the team continue to explore at every opportunity so that we can advise our customers from our own personal experiences, and we’ve visited the majority of the safari lodges that we feature on our website.
And once you have booked with us, we don’t forget you either...we provide a full set of travel documents, including vouchers, directions and contact phone numbers for every place you have booked for your trip of a lifetime.
We are on hand to answer any queries you may have right up to the day you fly, and our 24 hour emergency numbers ensure we are also available to assist in the event that you need us whilst you are abroad.
We are thrilled to have won a number of awards over the years, including a couple of "Best Tour Operator" at the SATOA Travel Awards.
We are clearly thrilled to recieve this recognition, and our heartfelt thanks to all the clients that have given us such lovely reviews on Feefo over the last few years.
We have long heard various people saying that Zambia is ideal for safari connoisseurs and people on their third or fourth safari, whilst South Africa and Kenya are often cited as being the best option for first timers. But is there any reason why Zambia would not work for someone on their first safari? We decided to spend 9 nights travelling to some of Zambia’s best loved national parks and safari lodges to see how the experience there compares to that in South Africa’s Kruger Park area, which is a firm favourite with first timers and seasoned safari veterans alike.
Well it was a long time ago, but we never forget a face! We have written previously about how a holiday to South Africa inspired us to take a career break in 2003 which ultimately lead to us setting-up Travel Butlers..
