KEY PILLARS OF THE BORN FREE PHILOSOPHY
- Personal Communication: Born Free emphasizes direct, personal communication to ensure every detail of your journey is overseen with consideration to the trip you envision intellectually and emotionally.
- Tailor-Made Focus: Each Born Free website trip has been created around 52 years of experience understanding and hearing what travelers enjoy. But that is not you! Everyone’s travel goals are different. We are here to turn the experience you envision into a reality. Tailor-Made is not always a private custom trip, nor expensive.
- Expert Guiding: A professional, hand-selected guide is considered one of the most important components in the success of a trip. Guides are matched with travelers based on specific interests and personal requirements. They function as expert naturalists, trackers, storytellers to not only make your trip interesting but as seamless as possible.
- Logistics & Where You Stay: Pacing of a trip is essential – not just a check list of places to go. Drive times should be kept to a minimum but make sense in the overall planning. Where you stay is an integral part of the journey, offering diverse accommodations from tree hotels to luxury camps, selected for their location and the experience they offer.
