Collette African Safari Expertise Facilitates Guiding Clients

As demand for transformational, once-in-a-lifetime travel experiences continues to rise, Collette is helping travel advisors confidently guide clients toward African safaris — one of the most sought-after and meaningful journeys in travel today.

For many travellers, an African safari represents a lifelong dream. But the complexity of planning — from navigating long-haul flights and regional logistics to choosing the right reserves and experiences — can often feel overwhelming. That’s where guided expertise becomes essential.

Collette’s safari portfolio removes those barriers, giving travel advisors the ability to offer extraordinary wildlife experiences with clarity, confidence, and ease.

“An African safari is one of those rare journeys that truly changes you and benefits from having experts on the ground,” said Jaclyn Leibl-Cote, President and CEO of Collette. “It’s not just about seeing wildlife — it’s about experiencing it in a way that’s seamless, immersive, and deeply meaningful. That’s where expert guidance makes all the difference.”

Collette’s guided safari experiences are designed to simplify the most complex elements of travel while elevating the overall experience. Advisors can introduce clients to itineraries that deliver:

• Iconic wildlife encounters, including the Big Five, in world-renowned destinations
• Expert Tour Managers and local guides, providing context, storytelling, and cultural insight
• Thoughtfully designed itineraries, balancing game drives, accommodations, and travel logistics
• Seamless coordination, including in-destination transportation and regional transitions

By removing uncertainty and streamlining logistics, guided safari travel becomes significantly more approachable — both for first-time safari travellers and advisors positioning these journeys as premium, high-value experiences.

Collette’s offerings span some of Africa’s most compelling destinations, allowing advisors to match clients with the right experience based on travel style, comfort level, and bucket-list goals.

At the same time, safari travel naturally aligns with the growing demand for purpose-driven experiences, giving travelers the opportunity to connect with wildlife, nature, and local communities in a meaningful way.

For travel advisors, this represents a powerful opportunity to elevate their role from trip planner to trusted expert.

As part of its broader campaign, Collette continues to highlight experiences where going guided helps advisors lead the conversation and inspire clients to say yes to travel they may have once thought was out of reach.
