“ There is something about safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne— bubbling over with heartfelt gratitude for being alive.”
— Isak Dinesen( Karen Blixen), author, Out of Africa
On Safari in Africa
56
Here at O. A. T., African safaris are among the most popular trips for solo women. Sure, you’ ll be about as far away from home as you can be, and out in the wild. But you’ ll also be well cared for by your safari guides, drivers, and camp and lodge crew; and gratified by the camaraderie that arises as you share such an impactful experience with your safari mates. You’ ll have to be mindful of what you pack( the small aircraft that fly you to your lodges have strict weight limits). But most safari lodges will surprise you with the level of creature comforts they provide, out among the most marvelous creatures on earth.
