How We Craft Your Custom Trip

You want to travel to Africa – but where to begin?

We believe the magic of travel lies in the details, and no two travelers are the same. That’s why no two trips we plan are either. So what happens once you hit “Submit” on that contact form?

Step One: Let’s Talk

Once we receive your enquiry, one of our experienced Travel Designers will reach out to you directly. We want to hear everything: your travel dates, your dream African destination, your non-negotiables, your wish list, your must-sees and even your maybes. Whether you’re dreaming of gorilla trekking in Rwanda, hot-air ballooning over the Serengeti, or unwinding on the beaches of Zanzibar, we’re here to listen.

We’ll also chat about the practical stuff like your budget, travel style, and who you’re travelling with, be it your partner, your family, or your best friends. The goal is to understand what kind of trip will light you up.

Step Two: We Start Designing

This is where our behind-the-scenes magic kicks in. Our family of Travel Designers have personally travelled to all the destinations we recommend. We’ve walked the dusty paths of remote safari camps, floated down the river Nile, sipped sundowners in the bush and vetted hotels down to the thread count on their sheets.

We draw on these firsthand experiences and our trusted local connections to design something truly tailored to you. We don’t believe in mass-produced packages. Just thoughtful, personal travel planning rooted in genuine insight.

Step Three: Tailor Until It’s Perfect

Once we’ve designed your custom itinerary we’ll present it to you for feedback. We’ll tweak, refine and adjust your personal itinerary until it feels just right for you. Think of us as your personal team of travel tailors, stitching together something that fits you exactly.

Step Four: We Book Every Detail

Once you’re completely happy with your itinerary, we take care of the rest. Accommodation? Confirmed. Activities? Booked. Transfers, guides, internal logistics? All sorted. We’ll also guide you on things like visas, vaccinations, and what to pack.

Planning a trip to Africa comes with its own set of logistical puzzles but we’ve been doing this for years, and we know exactly how to fit the pieces together. With Roane Travel Design, your journey is smooth from the very first booking to your final flight home.

Step Five: Your Journey Begins

Your bags are packed, your countdown is over and your adventure begins. But you’re never travelling alone. From the moment you board your flight to the moment you return home, we’re on call for anything you might need. Flight delay? Last-minute questions? We’re just a message or call away, any time of day.

Our on-the-ground teams and trusted local partners are also ready to welcome you at every point, ensuring everything runs smoothly and you always feel looked after.

Step Six: You Soak It All In

Now comes the best part: soaking up every moment of your bucket-list adventure! Whether you’re watching elephants gather at a waterhole, exploring the pyramids of Giza or gazing at the Serengeti sky in total silence, it’s all about being present. You get to fully experience the joy of African travel without ever having to worry about what comes next. Because we’ve already thought of that.

Step Seven: The Journey Continues

Once you’re back home, we’re still here. We’ll check in to hear how everything went and what you loved most. We love hearing your stories and many of our clients become lifelong friends and repeat travelers. Because with Roane Travel Design, the journey never really ends. It just evolves into the next adventure.
