CCAfrica - &Beyond...

Our roots are in Africa and the company's experience in luxury safari travel spans many decades. From 1990 to 2008 we went by the name of Conservation Corporation Africa (CC Africa) and are globally recognized as one of the world’s pioneering responsible luxury adventure tourism companies. Today we own and operate almost 50 extraordinary safari lodges and camps in breathtaking locations across six African countries.

Across our lodges, safari camps and tented camps runs one common thread - a passion for guest delight. We come from many tribes in Africa and speak many different tongues, but, when it comes to guests, we all share the same, warm brand of African hospitality.

&Beyond is renowned for having some of the most highly trained professional and knowledgeable safari guides, rangers and trackers in the world. They passionately impart an incomparable wealth of knowledge, personally researched and experienced, about habitats, ecology, birds, trees, plants, animals and insects, providing our guests with memorable wilderness experiences to last a lifetime.

We believe that wildlife conservation and ecotourism are vital for Africa's future and the prosperity of its people. Our passionate belief in the Care of the Land, Care of the Wildlife, Care of the People is evident in everything that we do. Founded by &Beyond, the &Beyond Foundation has built up a highly successful track record in empowering and enriching the communities that surround the wildlife reserves where we operate. By choosing a luxury safari with &Beyond, our guests enable us to make many small but meaningful differences to our planet.

Call of the wild

As the world becomes more crowded and our lives get faster and fuller, so the peace and tranquility of the natural world becomes an irresistible magnet. With growing numbers of people visiting our planet’s wild places, it is crucial to ensure impacts on our natural environments are minimized. By choosing to travel with &Beyond, it is possible to have the journey of your life, while also making a real contribution to the future preservation of global biodiversity.

Sustainability

Wildlife conservation and ecotourism are vital for Africa's future and the prosperity of its people. It is estimated that, over the next decade, tourism will become the single biggest contributor to Southern African GDP, and the greatest creator of new and sustainable jobs on the subcontinent. At &Beyond we believe that we can help to protect Africa's threatened ecosystems, endangered species and the precious diversity of its wilderness area through our model of low impact, high yield responsible luxury adventure tourism.

Precious natural resource

Our core values have always been 'Care of the Land, Care of the Wildlife, Care of the People'. We believe that the wild spaces of Africa are a precious resource and that the only way to sustain them is through realizing their true value. By placing an economic value on conservation and wilderness land, and ensuring that the local communities benefit from our activities, &Beyond can guarantee that these wild areas have a future. However, we can only do this by engaging with those communities and through maintaining the value of Africa's wilderness regions by ensuring exceptional guest experiences.

Helping realize our vision

Our guests play a crucial part in helping us realize our vision. By travelling with us, you enable us to make many small but meaningful differences to the world that surrounds us. Whether it is coming face to face with a previously endangered rhino, shaking the proud hand of a local elder whose once destitute community now has a future or simply witnessing the sun rising once more over lands that have been restored to their natural splendor, our guests cannot fail to be touched by the contribution that they are making to &Beyond's work in Africa's wide open spaces.
