As the sun starts to set on another unbelievable year, we’d like to take the opportunity to share our gratitude for your loyalty and support. Together, we have witnessed staggering wildlife encounters, explored untamed safari destinations and created unforgettable moments with new and old friends on safari.
Reflecting on 2023
Thinking back on the past year this Festive Season, we can’t help but think of all the memories made and the ones we have yet to create. Take a look at some of our highlights here.
Wildlife
Thanks to our expert guides and trackers, we had many once-in-a-lifetime wildlife encounters. From watching a Serval hunt a water snake at Gomoti Plains to finding a Pangolin shuffling in the grass at Kiri Camp and watching a pack of wild dogs ward off an opportunistic hyena at Mana River Camp, the year was filled with exceptional wildlife sightings. Take a look at our blog here.
Community
Seven of our students at Gonnye Setlhare School have graduated and are moving on to Grade One in 2024. Built in May 2019, the main purpose of the school is to educate our younger generation who are our future conservationists. One day these students will take responsibility for protecting and conserving the Okavango Delta.
People
Our team carries an undeniable passion for the wild and a commitment to bringing you an unforgettable journey. From crafting the freshest gin and tonics to sharing their insights into the wild, each moment is a celebration of the natural beauty that surrounds us. We are so delighted to be surrounded by a wonderful team whose passion grows with each day immersed in the wilderness.
Looking Forward to 2024
