About
Our Story
Organically grown, Ubuntu’s story begins over a decade ago when Larry Green and his wife, Debbie, organized their first trip to Africa with a close group of friends who often referred to them as the “local safari experts.” Prioritizing comfortable stays in luxury accommodations and the most reputable dining in every country, it was no surprise that word traveled quickly and the Greens found themselves joyfully orchestrating trips for more families and friends each year.
As Larry and Debbie continued their trips to Africa with their son, Kyle, in tow, it was inevitable that Kyle’s heart would grow fond of this incredible place. Now, Kyle and his wife Leah plan and lead trips for families, groups, and couples all over the continent, offering one of a kind, immersive, and unforgettable experiences for their guests. They continue to dedicate their time to ensure others are able to have the same magical experience that transformed each of their own lives.
