This spotted cat is the prize find for many on safari – beautiful, elusive, graceful and deadly! Leopards are widespread in most protected areas, but only readily found in a few. With patience, luck and skilled guides and trackers, you can get drawn into the secretive world of the leopard.

We rate these as the most immersive leopard safaris in Africa

  • Early morning and night game drives in South Africa’s Sabi Sands.
  • Full day safaris in the Serengeti or Masai Mara
  • Exploring Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park
  • Safaris in Botswana’s Okavango Delta

Whilst leopards are elusive, there are conservation organisations monitoring leopards to better understand local population dynamics. For the chance to see what happens behind the scenes and spend an extended day in the field, we will design your safari with trusted conservation partners.
