+ What are the accommodations like?

For our classic mobile safari, our guests stay in sturdy canvas tents that are moved from place to place during the safari experience. This allows our groups to better follow the animal migrations and have the most authentic & intimate safari experience (& animal encouters). Each tent is equipped with comfortable bedding, and sleeps two people. There is also a Canvas Toilet Room, Canvas Shower Room, and Canvas Dining Hall that is assembled in each destination. For an upgraded experience (at an additional cost), our travelers can choose to stay in Safari Lodges built near (but not inside) the national parks. Read More about Safari Camps and Safari Lodges >

+ How safe are the safari vehicles?

All our Safari Vehicles are sturdy 4x4 Jeeps that fit 8-12 people comfortably. They are the standard build of vehicle used for all Safari's in Africa and are completely safe.

+ What type of food will I be eating?

The food while on safari is prepared by your private camp chef, and can range from pasta and vegetables to simple meat dishes served with a side of rice. All of the food is prepared to Western Standards and is safe & delicious to eat!

+ Is it safe to camp while on safari?

Mobile Camping Safaris are safe, as there are only a few designated campsites to be used by small groups (and all the sites are watched over by Park Rangers). The sites must be booked in advance (as they are full all throughout the year with tourists), as many people choose a mobile camping safari over a standard lodge experience.

+ When is the best time to see animals?

The wildlife in Botswana is always great (as they have strict anti-poaching laws) and anytime you visit throughout the year is guaranteed to give you a great experience. The Spring (April-June) is a great time to visit as the wildlife is abundant. Summer (July-August) is also great for wildlife viewing, just expect more tourists. Fall (September-November) is the dry season, which means that the animals cluster around the watering holes for easily spotting opportunities. The Winter (December - February/March) is the wet season which means the opportunity to see newborn wildlife (and also experience some brief rain showers).

+ Why do a Mobile Camping Safari?

A Mobile Camping Safari is one of the best ways to experience the wildlife because you are located in the best locations in the park (which means you will at the prime locations during sunrise and sunset when the animals are the most active).
