"As your travel partner, I specialize in creating bespoke African safaris that reflect your unique tastes and desires. Leave behind the familiar comforts of Florida and embrace the extraordinary with a journey tailored just for you by The Grown-up Travel Company. Let's craft an experience that combines luxury, adventure, and the spirit of Africa." - Andy Higgs

What Can You Expect?

You Need Someone Who Knows Africa:

With over 30 years of experience under my belt—or should I say in the bush?—I know how to avoid the crowds. While others offer safaris from the sidelines, I take you straight to the action—up close to the wildlife, without a line of vehicles blocking your view.

Personal Approach Means Everything:

Why be just a number at a big agency when you can have a personal travel designer? With me, you’re at the center—not stuck in an endless queue, only to find you never speak to the same person twice.

This Is YOUR Unforgettable Journey:

It’s not just about the 'Big Five'—it’s about 'Your Five.' What do you hope to see? What have you always wanted to experience? I take the time to learn your preferences and together we turn those dreams into reality, from our first meeting to when you’re back home.

Why Choose The Grown-up Travel Company?

No Middlemen, No Nonsense:

“Just you, me, and Africa. I collaborate directly with the finest local operators to ensure your adventure is seamless, authentic, and genuinely unforgettable.

These deep-rooted relationships allow for unique, tailored safari experiences grounded in mutual respect and genuine connections, not just business.”

Deep African Expertise:

“As a seasoned travel designer, I bring a wealth of experience navigating the complexities of African culture and logistics. My extensive time on the ground, building relationships, and understanding local nuances ensures that your safari is not only luxurious but deeply enriching.

I frequently attend exclusive, invite-only travel events across Africa, allowing me to maintain personal ties with the best guides and stay ahead of the latest trends and hidden gems.

I personally scout and revisit destinations, continually refining our offerings to provide journeys that are not just ordinary vacations but transformative experiences.”

What are people saying about The Grown-up Travel Company?

I dreamed of travelling to Africa with my daughter, and Andy immediately set about tailoring a trip that really hit the target! We would never have been able to find such a unique variety of countries, places and experiences ourselves, and are deeply grateful that Andy made our African dream a reality. Thank you so much, Andy – we will never forget this!

We booked our honeymoon in Kenya with Andy and the Grown Up Travel company. The remit we gave was a week of safari adventure followed by some time relaxing in solitude on the beach. Andy delivered and then some! We had the most amazing week on safari. Andy's recommendations and guidance on where was best for our budget and the experience we wanted was spot on We would 100% recommend Andy to family and friends who want to go on an African adventure!
