About Us
Encompass Africa is a unique African travel specialist based in Australia.
The essence of Encompass Africa is to provide a complete African travel solution. We plan and book African safari itineraries tailored to meet the expectations, time and budget of individuals, couples, families and groups of friends who are searching for a truly authentic and exceptional African safari experience.
The process is easy, starting with a blank sheet of paper we ask the right questions about you and your ideal African safari. From here, using our unrivalled knowledge, creative thinking, passion and years of industry experience (not to mention our network of partners throughout Africa), we handpick the best lodges, camps, guides and wilderness areas to create an itinerary that reveals Africa’s secrets and takes you to places other travel companies only dream about.
Encompass Africa tailor-makes itineraries just for you. Our success rests upon the unique style of our African safaris, and the personal service paid to each to ensure a wondrous adventure of the spirit, the ultimate voyage of discovery and an awe-inspiring journey.
We invite you to now browse through our website – use it as a resource to inspire you to take the first step towards experiencing Africa in the same intense and authentic way that we ourselves have explored it – the very reason behind us creating Encompass Africa.

TOP THREE REASONS FOR CHOOSING ENCOMPASS AFRICA
Effortless
Creating journeys of discovery in challenging parts of the world is what we do all day, every day. We have exceptional teams of staff on the ground in Australia and Africa and use our combined destination knowledge, deep understanding of this stunning continent and extensive first-hand African travel experience to offer a complete travel service to you. We provide country and regional advice and recommendations, research and book your flights, handpick the finest camps, parks and wildlife guides in Africa. The result is a thoroughly planned, tailor made and effortless African safari adventure giving you complete peace of mind.
Valuable
Equally important, we understand the detail of each destination. We operate and sell exclusively the continent we have come to know and love. So we know how best to use your time and your money. Encompass Africa also works directly with each of the airlines, camps, lodges and hotels and sells direct to you. This means that you get expert advice and your ultimate African safari at no more than the cost of booking direct.
In addition, Encompass Africa is a fully licenced travel specialist and fully bonded with the Travel Compensation Fund (TCF Number: 9773). This means that the money you spend with Encompass Africa and the holiday you book are never at risk. Particularly in the regions where we operate and in times of economic uncertainty, travelling with an established and fully bonded tour operator is absolutely fundamental.
Evolving
African born, Jonathon Wilson is the founder and Director of the business in partnership with his Australian wife, Danica. We are an independent owner-run business which means we have the ability to constantly refine what we do based on developments in the industry, our experience in Africa (several trips per year) and feedback from our Australian and international guests. We design what is right for you and believe in quality and value … After all, we are only as good as the last holiday we have planned.
