Mantis is a hospitality group that curates eco-friendly escapes, lodges, and waterways across Africa and beyond, grounded in conservation and sustainable travel principles. Its origin traces back to a drought-ravaged farmland in the Eastern Cape that was rehabilitated into a game reserve, demonstrating how restored landscapes can support wildlife and travellers while advancing a people-and-nature sustainable approach. The concept for a collection of immersive journeys grew from Adrian Gardiner’s initiative, reflecting a commitment to aligning human activity with the natural world.

Headquartered in Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa, Mantis positions itself as a conservation-focused hotel group within the hospitality industry. Its target customers are travelers seeking nature-based experiences, including eco-tourism and safaris, with offerings designed to be mindful of local environments and communities. Since 2000, the company has developed a portfolio of properties and experiences aimed at sustainable, curated journeys rather than conventional mass-market travel.
