African Temptations
Luxury, Extraordinary Cuisine and Supreme Quality Service
What makes us special? Attention to every conceivable detail! The commitment and energy that we put into the personality and adventure for each one of our Guests visiting Africa requires something extraordinary.
For over 16 years, we have perfected our formula for providing “Unique, Quality, and Carefree Vacations!” This is affirmed by the fact that all of our Guests have been completely satisfied. As a result, they have continued to come back to us not just once, but a number of times! And many of our first time Guests are referrals from previous Guests.

A sampling of what can be expected…
Alfresco Meals
“After a bright, sunny morning on game drive, the midday meal is an event in itself, celebrating local produce and culinary creativity”… alfresco!
Delectable Desserts, Pastries & Teas
The pastry chefs and teams produce breads, croissants, Danish pastries, ice creams, sorbets, cakes, biscuits and desserts integral to the daily menus and for the standard expected by Guests of a world-class establishment.
Fine Dining
There is a classic and sophisticated approach to food, without complicating the plating or styling of the dishes. Traditional cooking methods are given a new approach by experimenting with texture, feel, and taste.
Fine Wines
Among the many factors involved in creating the best Safari experience in Africa, is the logistical challenge of sourcing and stocking the extensive wine cellars at each lodge and camp. For this reason, Singita has chosen to invest heavily in developing the best Guest focused wine culture for their lodges. The wine experience is a key component of each Guest’s stay at Singita.
Fresh Produce
Daily pickings from kitchen gardens, along with local ingredients are showcased on daily menus.
Gyms
For those who enjoy working out, many of the lodges, camps, and hotels offer well-equipped gym facilities, often with the most amazing views.
Helicopter Flights and Transitions
For an amazing experience, African Temptations is able to provide private helicopter flights within unique, remote destinations, flown by experienced and knowledgeable wilderness pilots. During the flight, the pilot shows you truly beautiful, pristine wilderness areas that are often not available or ever seen by the public.
Luxurious Accommodations
Our lodges and hotels are of the finest quality. Many are Relais & Châteaux, Harper’s listed, and have been rated by Condé Nast Traveler’s Readers' Choice Awards or Travel + Leisure World’s Best Awards.
Private Charter Flights
Private charters are in luxurious, pressurized, fast, quiet, and high-flying, executive interior airplanes, comfortably seating between 6 and 9 (or more if requested). Private charters offer Guests the advantage of flexibility, comfort, and consistency, and not having to deal with large airports, allowing for more vacation time. We can offer single turbine-propeller Pilatus PC-12 airplanes (or equivalent), or jets where runways will accommodate such airplanes.
 
Scheduled Charter Flights and Related Services
Our flying arrangements optimize aircraft choice while minimizing travel time, airport waiting time, customs & immigration, and waiting for baggage. Our plan utilizes a combination of scheduled charter and regular scheduled flights in a variety of twin, single, pressurized and non-pressurized aircraft. We use leading charter companies to provide safe and comfortable flights with professional, experienced pilots. Service companies, transfers, and facilities are selected to meet the most demanding standards as our Guests travel throughout the regions of Africa.
Spas
All of your needs are critically important to us and will be attended to, ensuring a carefree dream vacation! We can make special arrangements for your choice of massage, pedicure, manicure, body pack, facial, reflexology, waxing, and coiffure. Our Guests enjoy this multitude of treatments and therapies, as they indulge and restore themselves in a locale and setting that is unique to this part of the world.
Sundowners
There is nothing quite as wonderful as that first sip from a freshly made cocktail or an ice-cold soft drink with a splash of lime. Moreover, those who have experienced it from the edge of a waterhole or some other amazing view in the gathering dusk will tell you that the most delicious drink of all is the one served off the back of a game vehicle. An awe-inspiring sunset is one of the wilderness events guaranteed to take place!
Service with a Smile
Lodges, camps, and hotels train and encourage their staff to offer exceptional service. A little known fact is that the highlight of many of our Guests’ Safaris is the African staff and people. African Temptations has developed a unique relationship with our lodges, the lodge staff, suppliers, and other service providers. Our dealings with them are on a professional basis and are committed for the long term. We are known to be both demanding in our standards and generous in our tipping. Our Guests benefit from this relationship by receiving a very warm response on arrival at the various destinations and by being treated with special care, well beyond the norm.
