What's this trip about?

    On this comfortable camping safari you will travel with a very knowledgeable and professional guide deep into Botswana’s best-known wildlife areas. Explore the Xakanaxa and Khwai areas of Moremi Game Reserve, both of  which teem with animals. You’ll enjoy searching out big game and learning about each species’ unique behaviour on safari drives. Other possible activities include exploring the Delta’s lily-filled waterways by dug-out canoe, a spotlit night drive seeking out nocturnal creatures, and perhaps the chance to get closer to nature by discovering Botswana’s flora and smaller fauna on a guided walk. At night, you will sleep in comfortable bedding on camp beds set up in spacious walk-in tents, each with its own en-suite ‘bush’ bathroom.

Wild About Africa

View Profile

Wild about Africa is a tour operator which specialises in a broad range of innovative and affordable small-group safari adventures without compromising on quality. We are based in the UK, although our travellers come from around the world.

Wild about Africa's background

Our parent company, Sunvil Holidays, has been a tour operator since 1970, having operated for several years before then as Cyprus Property Tours.

Wild about Africa is the sister company to Expert Africa which began in 1991, with one of the first programmes to Namibia of any UK tour operator. Expert Africa specialises in high-quality tailor-made safaris to southern Africa. A decision was made to branch out into small-group trips and so in 2003 Wild about Africa was born. Wild about Africa remains backed by the wealth experience offered by Expert Africa and a proud part of the Sunvil family of travel companies - which is one of the UK's few owner-run, independent tour operators. Every one of our team has lived, worked or travelled extensively in Africa and all have grown to love it.

With this change of name, our management, team and everything else remained the same; we remain a proud part of the Sunvil family of travel companies - which is one of the UK's few owner-run, independent tour operators.

Adventure styles

A safari to Africa should be about more than just the 'big five' animals and well-known sites. It should also be about the discovery of off-beat and remote areas, seeking out smaller creatures and interacting with different cultures. Wild about Africa aims to offer the widest choice of safaris possible, taking in not just famous sites and places but also the less explored but equally fascinating destinations.

We offer a broad selection of small-group safaris. Adventures designed to suite a range of individual styles and budgets. So whether you are a safari enthusiast or a first time visitor to Africa, a single traveler or part of a group of family or friends, there will be a safari to suit you here.

Camping Safaris: Simple camping safaris to Africa are a great way to maximise time outdoors at a very reasonable cost. Each camping safari to Africa is led by a professional guide and is usually accompanied by an assistant who takes care of most camp chores. Camping equipment including easy-to-erect tents, comfortable foam mattresses and bedding is supplied and the safari to Africa includes three meals on most days.

Comfortable Camping: Comfortable camping safaris offer a very easy way to enjoy the full Africa experience, whilst retaining a real hint of adventure. You'll stay in comfortable mobile camps set up for you by camp staff, sleeping in comfortable bedding on camp beds set up in spacious walk-in tents. Each safari is led by an excellent guide.

Lodge and Camp Safaris: Lodge and Camp Safaris have all the advantages of a guided safari tour to Africa, but without the basic camping. You'll stay in luxury lodges, smart safari camps and comfortable mobile camps whilst you explore the landscapes and discover interesting flora and fauna with a knowledgeable guide.

Lodge Safaris: For the advantages of guided safaris, but without the camping, consider one of our lodge safaris to Africa. You'll stay in en suite rooms and tents at small guest farms, lodges and safari camps. You'll be led by a professional guide who will tell you a lot about the country and what you see as you travel.

Luxury Camping Safaris: Our luxury camping safaris to Africa incorporate many of the comforts found in smart lodges. These luxury safaris are led by excellent wildlife guides, and offer a great way to enjoy the full Africa safari camping experience, whilst retaining a hint of adventure.

Private Guided Safaris: A private guided safari to Africa is an exclusive lodge or camping holiday guided by an expert guide with the flexibility to set your own style of adventure, your own timetable and your own choice of daily wildlife activities. Private guided safaris are a great option for families, couples and small groups.
