Time + Tide | Luxury African Safaris in Zambia & Madagascar

Time + Tide Africa is a family-owned, pioneering luxury safari and island brand that operates an exclusive collection of high-end eco-tourism properties across Zambia and Madagascar. Rooted in a 70-year legacy started by safari legend Norman Carr, the company strongly focuses on walking safaris, community enrichment, and wildlife conservation.

Modern adventurers can enjoy the luxury of time and space in the most distant regions of the continent at award-winning Time + Tide facilities. The brand wants to demonstrate to safari visitors how the little pleasures in life can bring the most satisfaction.

The history of the company dates back to when safari pioneer Norman created a safari experience centered on community and conservation in Zambia seventy years ago. This philosophy has been upheld by Time + Tide, which has created a more “grounded” travel experience based on preserving Africa’s unique history, animals, people, and cultures.

The emphasis is really on going more slowly, getting closer, and touching the ground. This is also reflected in the group’s name. It serves as a reminder that time is limited and that we should make the best use of it. It is derived from the aphorism “time and tide wait for no man.” Through its stewardship of the exquisite landscapes, unique species, and rich civilizations it aspires to preserve, Time + Tide embodies this idea.

In addition to emphasizing conservation, Time + Tide wants everyone who interacts with them to feel like family, whether they are clients or visitors. They go above and beyond to make sure visitors have a lifetime of memories, so a stay at any of their homes will undoubtedly surprise and please. The commitment to establishing trust, keeping their word, donating generously, and properly celebrating the places they call home completes their list of core principles.

Time + Tide invites guests who think that the less-traveled path has more to offer with luxurious safari lodges in the most isolated regions of Madagascar and Zambia.
