NEW ITINERARY FOR 2008
This safari has been prepared specifically with the accent on a safari that combines the adventure of a true African bush safari, access to big game, camping amongst the game without the boundary of artificial fences, together with a degree of comfort not normally found under these circumstances.
The safari will cover a number of distinct eco-systems within the Botswana and Namibian bush environments, including access to some National Parks as well as certain private game concession areas.
It is a mobile safari, which means that many nights, camp will be pitched and struck again the next morning. The tour operator crew will take care of all this without intruding on your privacy.
Care has been taken in choosing this itinerary to include the following well known, and some lesser known but nonetheless exciting bush and game areas.
-Moremi Game Reserve
-Chobe Game Reserve
-Mudumu National Park
-Caprivi Strip
-Etosha Game Reserve
This semi-luxury safari will last 14 days, commencing in Maun, Botswana and ending in Windhoek, Namibia.
