There is no electricity, nor cell phone reception. Just you, in the heart of an untamed African wildlife wonderland.
To enjoy the full walking trail experience, a three night stay is recommended.
Dining
Hearty meals are prepared over an open fire by an expert cook. Snack and drinks stops while on game walks will tide you over till a tasty brunch is prepared back at the camp.
The Experience
Days start with a four hour walk at a leisurely pace with an armed specialist guide. Experiencing the bush on foot is entirely different from being on a safari vehicle, enabling you to completely immerse yourself in the mesmerising sights, sounds and smells of the African bush. Stops for snacks and drinks tide you over until a tasty brunch is prepared back at the camp.
After some �me' time spent snoozing or reading outside your tent, a savoury and sweet �tea' is prepared before another approximately two hour walk at the end of the afternoon, ending at a viewpoint to enjoy an unforgettable African sunset. A short drive will bring you back to camp with time to freshen up before dinner around the campfire.
