Wild African Ventures

This is a country of adventure, challenge and discovery: mokoro trails up secret waterways; overnight camping on islands and highlands; fighting the mighty Tiger Fish; surveying the vastness from elephant and horse back; admiring the abundant bird and wildlife; discovery of weird and wonderful plant and tree species on bush walks.

Our approach to customizing safaris is to give clients an intense experience of the areas visited. This means concentrating on the highlights of which there are four in Botswana: A stay in a water camp to explore the wetlands of the famed Okavango delta by motorized craft or mokoro (canoe). A stay in a land camp to view a great variety of game and birdlife from an open safari vehicle. A venture into the Chobe area including Savute, a harsh land where the battle for survival is desperate and prides of African lion are dominant. On a mobile safari tracking migratory herds of game through the endless vistas of the wild Kalahari. In addition, some of our special interest safaris will take you to lesser-known areas and add a special touch to your Botswana sojourn.

These are flying safaris which depart every day of the year to any of the camps in our portfolio in Botswana, for any time period. Each safari is customized to each guest's requirements. Guests can create their own itinerary to visit their preferred camps. Resident guides at each camp will host their guests throughout their area.
