There is a reason the African safari has remained one of the most popular worldwide bucket list items for over 100 years. No matter where on the continent you choose to spend your time, you will not be disappointed.

Tucked in the quiet woods of County Meath is a hidden treasure of Georgian elegance. The Bellinter House has everything a traveler looking for an unusual journey could want: history, luxury, access to interesting local sites and yes … a friendly spirit to boot.

Considering a safari? It’s certainly a trip of a lifetime to roam Africa’s jaw dropping geographies. But while everyone in your jeep is on edge waiting for the next big mammal to make an appearance, tune your eyes to the tree tops where a tiny world of wonder will unfold before you.
