Overland safari

Starting from R9000 per person per night

An overland safari is an adventurous journey in a specially equipped vehicle, a custom-built Land Cruiser safari truck. It's about the journey itself, crossing diverse landscapes and visiting multiple countries. It's a more rugged, immersive style of travel compared to a traditional safari, with a focus on group participation and experiencing the continent first-hand.

This type of safari offers a blend of accommodation styles. You will stay in a combination of basic or mid-range lodges, comfortable tented camps, and even some camping. This allows for a more varied and flexible experience, combining the comfort of a bed and private bathroom with the authenticity of a true bush camping experience.

Decide on the location for your safari

South Africa - Accessible and diverse, with the Kruger National Park and numerous private reserves.

Botswana - Known for the Okavango Delta and Chobe, offering water-based and land safaris.

Namibia - Unique desert-adapted wildlife and striking landscapes.

Zimbabwe - Rich game viewing, plus Victoria Falls as a dramatic highlight.

Decide whether you're camping, glamping or staying in a luxury lodge

Camping - The most stripped-back way to experience nature, with tents close to the wild.

Glamping - A balance of comfort and immersion, often with larger tents, proper beds, and private facilities.

Lodges - Unique desert-adapted wildlife and striking landscapes.

Decide on your budget range

Most safaris in Southern Africa follow a rhythm: early morning game drives, a rest during the day, and evening outings. Some areas allow full-day drives with picnic stops, while others focus on sunrise and sunset activities. Evenings might be spent around a fire in camp or in the comfort of a lodge.

Actual costs depend on several factors, including travel season, park or reserve fees, location and accessibility, availability, and the level of service included. Your budget may also need to account for extras such as internal flights, private vehicles, gratuities, and special experiences like walking safaris or night drives. Being realistic about these variables will help you narrow your options and avoid surprises later.
