ABOUT US
Majestic African Safaris
Imagined by Laurel A. Louderback
Adventure and luxury are more than just words to me - they are the passions that have guided my life, shaped my travels, and inspired the experiences I love to share with others.
More than 26 years ago, scuba diving brought me to Tahiti, where I ultimately settled and founded True Tahiti Vacation, creating customized journeys for international clients throughout French Polynesia. Building a business and managing a family filled my days, and as often happens in life, some dreams are placed on hold. For me, that dream was an African safari.
Now living back in my home state of California, I am proud to work with some of the most respected safari professionals in the industry. Together, we create extraordinary journeys tailored to each client's dreams, whether that means unparalleled luxury or exceptional value. No matter your travel style, my goal is simple: to help you experience the magic of Africa in a way that exceeds your expectations and creates memories that last a lifetime.
In 2025, I finally made my way to Kenya. The safari experience was everything I had imagined and so much more. I knew almost immediately that I wanted to expand my business into Africa and make luxury safaris the focus of this new venture. Africa is a vast and diverse continent, and I understood there was much to learn. From Kenya to South Africa, I sought out the very best partners, experts in safari travel who share my commitment to exceptional service and unforgettable experiences.
Giving Back
At Majestic African Safaris, we believe in giving back to the communities and wildlife that make Africa such an extraordinary destination. That's why every safari booked helps support one of two remarkable organizations that are making a meaningful difference in Kenya and beyond.
Sheldrick Wildlife Trust
Best known for its work protecting elephants, the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust operates the world's most successful orphan elephant rescue and rehabilitation program. Since its founding, the organization has rescued and raised more than 327 orphaned elephants, treated over 15,000 wildlife veterinary cases, and established 28 anti-poaching teams throughout Kenya. Through your safari booking, you are helping support the conservation efforts that protect Africa's wildlife for future generations.
Micato-AmericaShare
Education has the power to change lives. For every guest who travels on safari, Micato-AmericaShare helps provide an African child with access to education. While primary education is technically free in Kenya, families are often responsible for expenses such as uniforms, books, school supplies, desks, exam fees, and meal programs. For families living in extreme poverty, these costs can be impossible to afford, preventing many children from attending school. For more than 30 years, Micato-AmericaShare has worked to identify and assist the most vulnerable families, helping children gain access to the education they deserve and the opportunities that come with it.
Travel With Purpose
When you travel with Majestic African Safaris, your journey goes beyond an unforgettable safari experience. You are also helping protect wildlife, support local communities, and create brighter futures for children across Africa.
Together, we can make a difference—one safari at a time.
