Our safari covers the whole island, from south to north and back. We explore the varied terrain from the plains on the eastern side, which merge gently into peaceful days and golden beaches, to the western side, which is mountainous with steep cliffs along its coastline. During the safari we drive both on and off road carefully and considerately.

All guests will be collected in Argassi at a pre-arranged time and then head towards our starting point just inside Laganas. Here instructions will be made & safety procedures will be covered. There will be a short brief on the day’s itinerary before we set off on safari…
