See Gorillas before the prices rise

If you have Gorillas on your bucket list, then now is the time to book your safari while costs for permits in Uganda are still low. Neighbouring Rwanda have hiked their permit prices to $1500 per day, while Uganda remain at $600 per day. But that low price won't be around for too much longer.
We have an Early Bird booking special offer available now. £470 off a ten day Safari in August 2019, now just £3,200 pps.
We expect this safari to sell out very quickly so early booking is recommended.
Check our our website and Email Fiona for more details.

Lovely Hyenas

While there is often a preconception that Hyenas are ugly nasty creatures, which is probably due to their depiction in cartoons rather than anything else. In reality they are wonderful creatures, stunning to see and always popular with our safari guests.

Zanzibar

If a few days by the Indian Ocean relaxing at the end of your Safari sounds good, then Zanzibar offers just that. We have partnered with four lodges all owned by the same family located on the Eastern side of the Island. Here the warm Indian Ocean offers amazing white beaches and shade along the Palm tree groves. Our luxurious lodges are located along the beach. Each is different in terms of style and exclusivity, but all offer a wonderfully relaxing ambiance where you can enjoy a variety of water sports and off site visits. Or, as in my picture above, you can just lounge by the beach with a good book and a cool drink, enjoying the view.
Our website has more details, but you can also Email us for more information on 2019 packages.

Where to go Botswana - Makgadikgadi Pans

The intricate pan shapes of the Makgadikgadi were formed from the shrinking of an ancient lake. The resultant salt pans are in sharp contrast to the Okavango Delta’s explosion of life. It uniquely supports complex ecosystems of palms and baobab trees as well as seasonal wildlife when the rains come. In the wet summer season, visitors witness the overwhelming sight of zebra and wildebeest migration. 
In the dry season, the Makgadikgadi Pans receives the world’s second largest zebra and wildebeest migration after the Serengeti - Masai Mara wildebeest migration. During the first months of each year, the landscape becomes green and robust attracting 25000 zebra and wildebeest to the Makgadikgadi Pans. In November, at the beginning of the rainy season, up to 25,000 zebra start their migration through the Makgadikgadi and Nxai Pan National Parks in search of water and lush grazing grounds.
