What gets sent from this domain

If you asked us about a trip, these are the only kinds of message you should ever receive from us.

Welcome

A note from Sarah

When you first get in touch, our founder writes to say hello and introduces the person who will look after your enquiry personally.

Planning

Quotes and itineraries

Real prices, room categories, park fees and dates — written down, from the consultant handling your celebration or safari.

Confirmed

Booking confirmations

Your confirmation, transfer details and arrival instructions, plus any change to a flight or property before you travel.

Occasional

Seasonal offers

A few times a year: coast and Mara availability, festive packages and genuinely time-sensitive rates. Never more than that.

How to check a message is really from us

Travel is a favourite target for impersonation. Every legitimate email we send comes from one of these addresses:

  • hello@virtuousexplorers.comGeneral enquiries
  • bookings@virtuousexplorers.comQuotes and confirmations
  • sarah@virtuousexplorers.comFounder's office
  • no-reply@mail.virtuousexplorers.comAutomated notices
We will never ask you to send money to a personal account, request your full card number or PIN by email or WhatsApp, or pressure you to pay within minutes. Payments are made only through the account details printed on an official Virtuous Explorers invoice. If a message feels wrong, stop and call us on the number below before paying anything.

Your inbox, your rules

We would rather have a small list of people who want to hear from us than a large one that does not.
