Lala Palm Safari Co.

Lala Palm Safari Co. is a boutique specialist safari travel company that designs and guides luxurious tailor-made safaris and safari retreats.

At Lala Palm Safari Co. we understand an individual’s desires for freedom, discovery and adventure in the wild. Africa, and other exotic destinations like India provide us with the platform to give you just that, alongside a dose of luxury.

We provide experiences for the solo travellers, couples, families, and groups. Whether it’s by vehicle, foot, helicopter, plane, boat and even traditional mokoro. Our aim is to make life-changing experiences a reality by tailoring all safaris with exceptional detail and care.

We specialise in tailored safaris across Africa and India. Our tailored safaris are a collaborative effort, where we work closely with our guests to understand their personalities and needs, drawing on our background in psychology to tailor each experience.

Safari expeditions and retreats are group travel experiences that follow a prescribed itinerary. Our safari retreats often span the globe, wherever there is an opportunity to connect with nature and wildlife. These safari expeditions and retreats are integrated with transcendent experiences to satisfy a variety of needs: wellness, curiosity and purpose.

Where It All Began

Our Story

Our name comes from our adventures to Botswana. The lala palm trees are the sentinels of the delta, watching over the islands and waterways in the heart of the wilderness. You can’t go anywhere in the magnificent landscape of Okavango Delta, Botswana, without seeing a fringe of incredibly tall and spindly lala palm trees dotting the horizon. The lala palms are nature’s snack cabinet, drawing in all kinds of creatures to exploit their goodness. Elephants find the gingery tasting palm nuts of the lala palm irresistible. Explorers of the delta are treated with rapid-fire swishing sounds, a sure signal that an elephant is vigorously shaking a tree to get the nuts to fall loose.
