The Umoja Journey
A Different Way to Experience Africa
Led by David Marshall
Africa. Up Close.
The Umoja Journey brings a small group of founders, business owners, and leaders into places most visitors never see.
Not Just Places. Perspective.
We move through several regions, each with a different pace and feel. You’ll stand above Victoria Falls, travel across open plains, and watch elephants move trunk to tail on safari.
Who Travels on the Journey.
We keep the group small. Most of our guests have spent years building something of their own. The shared life and business experience makes for interesting conversation.
You’ll Travel Well.
We stay in exceptional lodges and visit some of the best spots in Africa. Every detail is carefully curated for safety and comfort.
Life-Changing Encounters.
Along the way, we introduce you to local leaders doing amazing things in difficult environments. You’ll be changed by what you see and impacted by the depth of the people you meet.
Hosted by David Marshall.
I’ve spent decades leading groups across Africa, building relationships with educators, entrepreneurs, and community leaders. The journey exists because of those relationships. Every year I bring together a few small groups and open the door to experiences most travellers never see.
Upcoming Trips.
The Umoja Journey Isn’t for Everyone.
It isn’t a sightseeing trip, and it’s not volunteer travel. But for the right group of people, it’s something that stays with them for a long time. If this feels like the kind of experience you’ve been looking for, we can start with a conversation.
