Bunnik Tours offer just that: an intimate small group tour affording Africa’s best experiences. 

There are travellers who prefer to save a few bucks by joining large group tours, sacrificing peace for the bustle and hustle of big crowds. And then there are those travellers who know the beauty of a place is often best appreciated in near stillness, especially when that place is Africa! Bunnik Tours offer just that: an intimate small group tour affording Africa’s best experiences. 

You know Bunnik Tours already, of course. They’ve been touring Europe and the Middle East for over 25 years, after all. They’ve long been on Australian agents’ radar for their insightful, intimate, impeccably tailored small group tours, tour extensions, and independent travel options.  

But did you know Bunnik Tours have four 19-23-day trips in their Bunnik Tours Africa tour range? You do now, and we’ve got all the deets on what makes any Bunnik Tours trip across the Mother Continent so special.

Africa is one of those destinations that you want to get right for your clients first time. Not only because it’s far but because some wildlife encounters may be a truly once-in-a-lifetime moment! Travelling with the experts is, therefore, crucial.  

The Bunnik Tours Africa program encompasses four classic tours, all with economy airfares included from Australia. Plus, they run a dreamy shorter Madagascar tour and an array of tour extensions and independent travel options to round out that dream vacay.  

They’ve done all the hard work, so once you know your client’s goals, you can mix and match to compile an effortless Africa itinerary.  

Showcasing the best of Africa

With their four classic holidays, Bunnik Tours seamlessly introduces the highlights of such a diverse continent on a stress-free holiday like no other.  

Across Africa, their local English-speaking guides and drivers reveal how diverse each destination is. Places like Madagascar, Egypt, Zanzibar, and South Africa, where their attractions and wildlife experiences are so distinct from each other.  

From spotting the Big 5 running wild across African plains to witnessing Sossusvlei’s sweeping desert landscapes to insightful local village visits, Bunnik Tours makes Africa accessible, exciting, and personalised.  

When small means small

Pioneers of the small group touring concept, Bunnik Tours invites a maximum of 12 passengers per Africa tour. A small group journey that is truly small!  

With groups between six and 12 passengers, flexibility is a huge advantage. Alongside this, bonds are typically strong; the pull of like-minded travellers on a mission to soak up all that Africa has to offer. 

Being on safari with a small group means a guaranteed great seat to view the action; no need to elbow that new best friend for the primo spot. Plus, small numbers reduce the odds of some yabbering idiot chasing a lion away with their can’t-keep-it-down volume.
