Our story
Reimagining travel when the world stool still
When Covid-19 brought global travel to a halt in 2020, our founders, seasoned tourism professionals with over 100 years of combined experience, saw an opportunity to reimagine what travel could be.
Dawn to Dusk Safaris was born from a simple conviction:
The best journeys prioritize authentic storytelling, sustainable exploration, and genuine human connection over rushed itineraries and cookie-cutter experiences.
Our name says it all. “Dawn to Dusk” symbolizes our commitment to being with you through every phase of your adventure, from your first African sunrise to your final sunset, and every golden moment in between.
Our partnership with The Strandloper Project
At Dawn to Dusk Safaris, we believe the most meaningful journeys are the ones that give back to the places we love. As part of our commitment to sustainable tourism, we are proud to partner with The Strandloper Project, a dedicated initiative working to protect South Africa’s coastline and the marine life that depends on it.
Their mission is simple but powerful: to clear our beaches of microplastic pollution, discarded fishing gear, and general litter, in order to conserve and protect our threatened marine life.
Through this partnership, our Garden Route guests are invited to experience the Swartvlei Coastal Conservation Walk, a guided outing along the striking shoreline of Gerrickes Point. Walking alongside our guides and the Strandloper team, guests gain insight into the local marine ecosystem, take part in light hands-on conservation, and explore the rock pools where the intertidal world comes to life.
It is a celebration of the Garden Route’s natural beauty and a reminder of the responsibility we all share in protecting it. Because for us, every journey from dawn to dusk is also a journey with purpose.

Cant beat local knowledge
We did a couple of short tours out of Simbavati Fynbos, a nature drive, and a barge trip up the river. Both were highly enjoyable & interesting. Would recommend these guys.

Irvin the guide is the Best!
Irvin was an awesome guide & very knowledgeable. He was very patient and knew the right spots to get the best viewing points (which were often away from all the other jeeps, too).

It was an unforgettable experience!
Our guide, Wesley, was incredibly knowledgeable and made the day even more special. We spotted our first animal just after entering the gate – a magnificent leopard!
