Highlights of Botswana - 8 Days

(Adventure Guided Mobile Camping Safari)

An excellent safari for those looking to experience the amazing wildlife of Botswana’s Moremi, Savute and Chobe wilderness areas plus the natural wonder that is Zimbabwe’s Victoria Falls. Aimed at the more budget conscious you travel in a small group (12 people maximum) by open safari vehicle with a qualified guide and set up camp in wild, unfenced campsites surrounded by the African bush. Limited participation is required - camp set up and erecting your tents - but everything else, cooking, cleaning and other camp chores are done by your camp crew.

Experience one of the world's premier wildlife destinations with your own qualified field guide and safari vehicle. This semi-participation mobile camping safari enables you to enjoy the amazing wildlife reserves of Moremi and Chobe.

Semi-participation: This camping safari requires some participation from guests in setting up their tent and packing it away, and in carrying their bag to and from the vehicle at campsites. The rest of the camp chores are carried out by your guide and one camp assistant.

Equipment: 2.1m x 2.1m x 1.75m canvas dome tents. A 5cm thick high density foam mattress is provided for each guest together with a sleeping bag and small pillow. Ablutions are shared and bush ablutions set up by the team when staying in game reserves and national park campsites.
