Unfound Africa – For the Love of Discovery

Unfound Africa is a curated collection of properties and experiences across Africa. It aims to bring guests to untrodden, breathtaking destinations, where they are made to feel special. Each property in the portfolio is unique, but underpinning all is the same soul of exceptional guest service and a golden thread of eco-centricity.

Each destination immerses travellers in Africa’s extraordinary nature and wildlife. From the peaks of Swartberg and Table Mountain, to the animal wonders of Kruger, and the marine marvels of Mozambique’s secluded coastlines, guests can lose themselves and discover themselves all in one trip.

Unfound brings together travel, wellness, wonderment, and wanderment, unlike any other travel curator. They do it for the love of discovery, the love of our natural world, and the determination to share these unique destinations with others who carry their values.

Many travellers do not want the typical break that thousands of others experience, and they do not want to be crowded in on every side by throngs of tourists. Unfound’s guests crave a secret escape that they can later whisper about and be met by awe-struck faces.

As a responsible tourism operator asserting a love affair with Mother Earth, Unfound is devoted to showcasing its values and building its passion for purpose, while offering sustainable and unforgettable experiences.
