View Profile

Tribes was started in 1998  by a husband and wife team after they'd both spent years as travel guides and travel journalist. 

Twenty years on, Tribes is still a proudly independent and family-run specialist travel company. The highly professional team delight in sharing the knowledge they've built up of the places they offer.

The company works on a simple ethos …

They want you to have the very best holiday experience possible, and they try to ensure that travel is sustainable.

The company has a consistently very high feedback rating from clients, and many travellers come back to them again and again.

Since Tribes organises mainly tailor-made  (custom-made) holidays and safaris, there is no standardisation to the style or type of trips they plan.
The consultants listen to what you want, and they expertly plan what is absolutely right for you, and as close as possible to the budget you have. If you ask for something that isn't possible - they will tell you.  If they feel that the trip you're asking for could be improved - they will advise you. If they think there is a property or experience you might love - they will suggest it to you.

Planning a very special holiday starts with an honest conversation. Tribes will listen and talk and plan with you until it's exactly what you want.
