Serengeti Walking Mobile Camp Serengeti Migration Area, Tanzania

A walking safari in an almost exclusive wilderness area of the Serengeti and staying in a private mobile camp is an adventurous and memorable way to explore this fantastic wildlife park. Led by a professional, informative and engaging guide you'll explore parts of the Serengeti free from numerous vehicles. You might spend time seeking out leopard between granite kopjies or patiently waiting to watch wildebeest cross the Mara River. At each location you'll stay in a comfortable tented camp set up privately for you and your travelling companions. - View lodge details

Erongo Wilderness Lodge Central Highlands, Namibia
The exposed granite around Erongo forms large, rounded hills which are well-suited to hiking and gentle scrambling – so it's a great place to stretch your legs after time in a vehicle. The lodge offers a choice of walks, either accompanied by knowledgeable guides, or on your own along clearly marked walking trails (for which the lodge provides a detailed map). - View lodge details
