WALKING SAFARIS

Our trekking safaris vary widely in style, length of the walks and accommodation. Hikers are both young and not so young. You are driven out to your base camp and set off walking over some of the most dramatic wildlife and scenic countries in East Africa. For some, the safari must include the excitement of sleeping under the stars around a camp fire, for others the luxury of the private safari accompanied by a retinue of cooks, waiters and camp help, and for many something in between (comfortable).

The walks are lead by experienced naturalist tour leaders. Usually cover a distance of 8 to 12 miles and start in the dim glow of early dawn. Porters, pack animals or vehicles carry luggage. Leaving the hiker unencumbered to enjoy the small curiosities met along the trail. In addition to trekking in wild game areas, in order to be near animals such as the lion, elephant and buffalo-the big five, a part of the time may be spent in the comfort of game viewing vehicles hunting for more dangerous forms of wildlife. We are also able to combine a luxury microbus photographic holidays with a section on walking. They provide an even balance between traveling by car and some real outdoor 'bush'. On most safaris you can expect to see the Big Five and over 20 different mammal species.
