ABOUT US

A journey is only as good as the people you share it with

THE EPIC DIFFERENCE

Simply epic!

For the past decade, Epic has tailored private journeys to some of the world’s most extraordinary places.

With Epic, you can see the world the way you want to see it, whether it’s an independent or privately guided journey.  We customise every itinerary based around your interests and expectations.  In our view, there’s no such thing as a “standard” safari or holiday.  It has to be special and unique.

Experience our amazing once in a lifetime journeys…and let the destination touch your soul.

Founder's Message

Of course we love it when our guests talk about the accommodation or the food or the service, but more than anything we want people to make that deeper connection.

The smell of wild sage, the dust filtered sunset, the respectful handshake of a guide, the call of a lion in the deep of night.  Baubles and beads are lovely reminders of a journey, but we want to touch your soul.
