Cross Country Air Safaris 

Destination Africa - Founded in 1983, German owner-run Cross Country Air Safaris from Pretoria will take you to safari destinations in Southern Africa by designing truly personalized tour itineraries or fly-in safaris. Let us chart a course for you through the wildlife areas and game reserves of Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. 

Discover with us fascinating, remote places and let us introduce you to African wildlife at its best - visit small bush lodges offering scenic excursions, superb game viewing and stunning landscapes. Our local guides excell at approaching animals for safe, sensitive, close-up photography of lion, elephant, leopard, cheetah, zebra and other plains game, large or small. 

Destinations 

Choose from a wide range of tried-and-tested destinations in Southern Africa and venues that best suit your expectations like the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Hwange National Park and the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and Zambia, or the Kruger National Park in South Africa, and more! 

Enjoy the comfort of small, exclusive venues situated in prime locations. The safari lodges range from bush comfort to highly luxurious, and are either tented or under thatch with canvas walls, and some are of solid construction. We place at your disposal our first-hand, current information on game concentrations, water levels and quality of lodges.
