Simplifying the process of investing in the African tourism sector

About Safari Partners

Safari Partners is a discreet advisory platform connecting exceptional safari operators with aligned investors who value conservation-led tourism in Africa. We operate at the intersection of capital, conservation, and hospitality—where long-term relationships matter more than transactions, and trust underpins every introduction.

Our Approach

Built on decades of experience across Africa’s safari and conservation landscape, we focus on carefully curated, off-market opportunities for private investors and family offices seeking long-term exposure. Every introduction is intentional, every relationship considered, and every opportunity handled with discretion.

Our Founder

Henry Hallward has over 30 years of experience in Africa’s conservation and safari sectors. In the 1990s, he worked with Care For The Wild, including involvement in the translocation of 600+ elephants from Gona-Rhe-Zhou National Park. He later founded and exited a safari company in Zambia (1999), and served as Chairman of the Africa Travel & Tourism Association (2007–2009).

Following the 2008 financial crisis, he began facilitating investor-operator introductions—forming the foundation of Safari Partners. Since 2010, he has structured and introduced investment solutions across Africa.

Today

Meaningful safari businesses require aligned capital and long-term commitment. We connect operators and investors who share this perspective—quietly and with respect for local environments and communities.
