Why Choose UTG?

Creating journeys to extraordinary places is what United Travel Group (UTG) is all about. We believe that luxury can be affordable and that planning a vacation should be as easy and stress-free as the journey itself.

  Experience Counts

We first began planning safaris more than 40 years ago. Our small group of dedicated Tour Consultants has over 100 years of combined experience planning both individual and group trips. Thanks to our wide-network of associates throughout East and Southern Africa, we can plan a single destination or pan-African grand safari with just one phone call.

When you choose UTG for your holiday, you get a team of professionals with more than 400 collective years of experience. You get the benefit of an extraordinary network of partners who have been chosen for their quality, attention to detail and dedication to customer service. Staff members frequently inspect hotels and lodges, ensuring they live up to the expectations of our travelers.

  Customizing Is Our Specialty

Think of our website as your canvas of ideas, waiting to paint your perfect journey. The safaris we feature represent some of the favorite combinations of our staff and our guests over the years. One of our experienced Tour Consultants will work with you, listening to what you want, what types of accommodations you like and then create a personalized trip to match your budget and your interests.

  Careful Planning

We plan each itinerary as if it were our own vacation. We're travelers too, and we know how important the pace of a vacation is. We match hotels to the style of the trip and choose modes of transportation that maximize your game-viewing or sightseeing experience as well as your comfort. We carefully plan our programs to ensure you have enough time in each stop to see the sights - and have leisure time to relax and enjoy yourself. Our meal plans are carefully developed so you receive outstanding value - but also have time to taste local specialities on your own.

  Flexibility is Key

We design our tours for maximum flexibility. You'll see that many tours offer two and even three levels of accommodations. But often, the tour offers even more flexibility.

Depending on the destination and tour, we can mix and match accommodation tiers within the same tour. So, in a city like Cape Town, you may opt for a ValuePlus accommodation so you can splurge on one of the amazing private reserves in Kruger National Park. Once your Tour Consultant knows what you would like to do and your budget, we'll help you put together the best value trip.

  Guaranteed Departures

There are no hidden surprises on a UTG tour. All of our departures are guaranteed to operate with a minimum of just 2 persons. So once we have confirmed your tour and received your advance payment, your trip is guaranteed to operate. Where practical, internal flights are part of the Land Only price as well. The tour features clearly show what's included.

  Outstanding Personalized Services

We pride ourselves on our high level of service. You'll usually receive a detailed quote within 48 to 72 hours. Our offices are open from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm EST Monday through Friday. Your dedicated Tour Consultant will be happy to answer your questions and help you plan the best vacation. . 99% of our clients would travel with us again. More than 50% of our travelers are repeat travelers or have been recommended by a past traveler.

The trip was wonderful! We enjoyed being together with family and seeing all the amazing animals and landscape as well as learning more about the Masai and other Kenyan cultures. The guides were fabulous! Leah, who met us at the airport, was lovely and helpful. The three drivers were terrific! They were very thoughtful and friendly. Bernard was the one that my parents drove with every time, and he was wonderfully supportive, particularly with my mom and her physical needs.
