This camping safari has been designed to offer the same high quality wildlife safari experience provided by the top-end safari camps, with 4x4 game viewing escorted by top class guides and in exclusive wildlife conservancies away from the tourist minibuses, but at a hugely reduced price by staying in small basic mobile camps, "real camping" instead of the luxury accommodation of the expensive up-market tented lodges.For those for whom the wildlife safari experience is more important than the accommodation, and who are prepared to sleep in small tents in sleeping bags on a mattress on the floor with an element of "roughing it", this gives an opportunity for an exceptional and exclusive wildlife experience with high quality guiding but at a fraction of the price.

Note: This is "Adventure Camping" with accommodation in small 2-man dome tents and is basic camping without all the facilities of the tented lodges or luxury permanent camps. It is "real camping" and all guests who book the Mobile Adventure 4x4 Safari need to bring their own sleeping bag as well as a towel. High Density Mattresses are provided inside the dome tent. All meals are prepared by the camp cook. Mineral water is provided in camp and on game drives but guests need to buy their own drinks at a supermarket en route to each camp. The big attraction is being in small campsites in exclusive wildlife conservancies with activity-packed itineraries and excellent guides and with game drives in open-sided 4x4 safari vehicles, not vans.
