As we celebrate our 10th Anniversary, we are looking to the future and are now accepting Bitcoins alongside the more usual forms as payment such as credit cards and and bank transfers. What’s Bitcoin? Basically it’s a digital currency, in existence since 2009, stored in a digital wallet on your computer. Learn more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin.

The decision was a no-brainer for us. A visit to Africa is a life-changing experience for many people and we would like to encourage more to make the journey. We are passionate about helping discerning travellers explore the wonders of Africa in comfort and style, and it makes sense for us to accept as many forms of payment as possible. We are also keen to tap into an emerging market of new customers

Our clients live around the world, and payment by Bitcoin will allow them to avoid the hassles and high charges related to credit card payments and bank transfers. We love the fact that using Bitcoins is extremely east, fast, secure and inexpensive, and hope that decreased currency volatility and increased acceptance by merchants in 2014 will result in many more people becoming increasingly comfortable using Bitcoins.

We work with BitPay, an electronic payment processing system. How does it work? We work with you to create a bespoke itinerary based on your budget and interests, typically quoted to you in US Dollars, Pounds or Euros. We then send you an invoice, linked to BitPay‘s payment gateway, where the invoice amount is converted into Bitcoins, based on the current Bitcoin value. You then transfer the relevant number of Bitcoins from your wallet to BitPay, who in turn pays us. Simple and cost effective! Using BitPay will provide a “stability hedge” against currency fluctuations at the time of purchase, benefiting both us and our customers.
