'Safari' is an old Swahili word from
East Africa translating to a journey. When we put together our safaris
we try and incorporate as many different ways as possible of viewing,
experiencing and enjoying our interactions with the wildlife that
we encounter. The accommodation that we use ranges from the rustic,
explorer experience in a dome tent to the more luxurious safari camps
that my even have a private sala. Concentrations of wildlife that
are not bombarded by the same concentrations of vehicles or boats
are where we try and focus our journeys.
How we Travel:
When coming on safari guests are often limited on the amount of time
they can spend away from home. For this reason flying in light aircraft
is the fastest and most convenient way to travel from area to area.
Some remote areas do not have airstrip facilities and a helicopter
flight is an option for a unique experience opposed to a long drive
through some relatively unproductive tracts of land. However in areas
that we feel that road transfer will enhance the journey that is
the mode of transport we will suggest. This allows guests to absorb
the scenery, landscape and the wildlife seen along the way at the
same time getting an in-depth understanding of the ecology, culture
and history.
On game activities the mode of travel is varied to allow for different
experiences. Fibreglass canoes, mokoro (traditional dugout canoe),
pontoon boats, horseback, elephant back, safari 4x4`s, hot air balloon,
micro light are on the list of possibilities depending on where your
journey leads you or where you lead your journey. Given here are
a few itineraries to give you an idea of how we piece our journeys
together but our safaris are by no means limited to these itineraries.
