Experience
The northern circuit, done well, at a considered price
Value and haste are not the same thing. These are the departures that keep the time in the parks and save the money elsewhere.
Where we economise, and where we never do
We save on accommodation — comfortable tented camps and lodges outside the park gates rather than inside them. We do not save on days in the park, on the vehicle, or on the guide. A cheaper camp costs you nothing at 6am when you are already out on the plains.
What a classic departure includes
A private pop-top 4x4 with a guaranteed window seat, a professional guide, all park and conservation fees, accommodation and meals as listed, and drinking water throughout.
Who it suits
First-time visitors, families, and anyone who would rather spend nine days out here than six in a nicer bed.
