Tailor-made safaris and travel to Southern Africa

FLY-DRIVE SAFARIS

These scheduled departure safaris drive between camps where feasible, and fly when the drives are too long and/or unproductive. This combination maximizes their cost effectiveness. Accommodation is in both permanent and mobile tented camps/lodges. Four safaris involve more flying than driving, and utilize predominantly permanent camps. Three safaris drive more, with most accommodation in mobile camps. We do not take more than 8 guests on any of these safaris.
