An Exclusive Use Safari Camp For Your Family

The best way to give your family the facilities it seeks may be to book out an entire camp or lodge. Perhaps you are planning a multi-generation safari. Or you may want to fulfil a dream of walking, mokoroing and camping out in the Okavango. You may simply crave an extra degree of privacy. Most lodges we use take fewer than 16 guests, some take only eight, so booking a whole lodge is a viable option.

A Multi-Generation Safari
We love arranging safaris for three generations. As grandparents you may feel that the time is just right, while you’re fit enough and the grandchildren old enough, to enjoy a safari all together. It will be a trip the whole family will treasure. For a party of say, 12, it makes good sense to book out entire lodges.

All the facilities, even the menus can be dedicated to your enjoyment. Talk to us at an early stage to secure the accommodation and to get it in everyone’s diary.

Footsteps Across The Delta
If your family would like to explore a remote part of the Okavango Delta from your own little camp, this could be perfect! The camp has just three walk-in en suite tents and one can be converted to take two adults and three younger children.

You can explore the beautiful Delta and its amazing wildlife on foot, by vehicle and canoe. The experience is designed for families and is suitable for quite young children.

A Mobile Camping Adventure
Perhaps you’re an adventurous family, who don’t need the high-end luxuries of some of the exclusive lodges. We can take you on a completely private, mobile safari across the Okavango. Each day your family will be free to walk, fish and canoe with your own expert guide and tracker.

A cheery support team will move ahead, setting up camp in an idyllic private location each evening. Enjoy freedom, superb wildlife and stories around the campfire beneath a great starry sky.

A Typical Day on a Botswana Safari

A land of contrasts, Botswana has long captured the hearts of countless travellers with its seasonal ebbs and flows. Each year, the flooding channels of the Okavango Delta beckon wildlife from near and far; rains transform the stark Makgadikgadi and Nxai salt pans into blankets of green; and dusty footprints trace paths to the vast elephant herds that gather in Chobe National Park. Comparing the verdant patchwork of green in the north to the lunar Kalahari landscapes further south is a feast for the senses, a feast which makes for an unforgettable geographical study in the span of a single trip. Discover Africa’s most exclusive safari destination in complete luxury.
