Pride Plains – Discover the Wild Heart of Botswana
Explore one of Africa’s last true wilderness areas. From the Okavango Delta to the Kalahari, Botswana offers incredible wildlife, vast landscapes, and rich local culture. We create tailor-made safaris whether mobile adventures, lodge-to-lodge journeys, or luxury escapes guided by experts who bring the land and its stories to life.

This is more than a holiday. It’s a journey into the wild.

1. Mobile Safaris

Mobile Safaris in Botswana – Deep in the Bush

A mobile safari is the most authentic way to experience Botswana’s wilderness. It takes you far from the crowds and into some of the most pristine wildlife areas on the African continent. Our tented camps are set up in secluded spots chosen for their beauty, tranquillity, and proximity to wildlife.

Imagine waking up to the sound of elephants trumpeting in the distance, lions roaring at dawn, or the gentle rustling of reeds as hippos stir in the lagoon nearby. Each day is filled with adventure—morning and evening game drives, guided bush walks, and moments of quiet observation, where nature reveals itself in its purest form.

Meals are prepared fresh in the bush, often over an open fire, and evenings are spent under Botswana’s star-filled skies, sharing stories around the campfire with your guide and fellow travellers.

Highlights of Mobile Safaris

  • Exclusive tented camps set in prime wildlife areas.
  • Small groups for a personalised safari experience.
  • Game drives at sunrise and sunset, when wildlife is most active.
  • Guided walking safaris with expert naturalists.
  • Opportunities to see elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, wild dogs, hippos, giraffes, and over 500 bird species.
  • Eco-friendly camps with minimal impact on the environment.

Mobile safaris are perfect for adventurous travellers who want a close connection to Botswana’s wilderness and seek a safari experience that feels raw, real, and unforgettable.
