Mobile Safari
A mobile safari is lead by a professional guide who is accompanied by a small compliment of camp staff and equipment necessary for a self contained journey through the Botswana wilderness. The flexibility of a mobile safari allows travellers access to remote wilderness areas within Botswana`s national parks and reserves.
A skilled African safari team – a professional guide, safari cook and trained camp staff, will accompany you on safari. The guides are passionate about the bush and enjoy sharing their knowledge and experiences with others. The fully trained camp staff, back up drivers and guides co-ordinate and oversee every detail on safari ensuring that everything runs smoothly. The safari cooks serve sumptuous meals that are guaranteed to satisfy any appetite.
There are a large variety of mobile safaris available, from basic, participation safaris, where guests are required to partake in daily camp chores, to comfortable safaris, with all the comforts of a lodge and a service team to manage the camp. Whatever grade of safari you choose, one thing is certain, camping no longer means having to rough it. In fact, even a budget, participation safari offers a level of comfort that most people would not associate with camping in the wild.
