Adventurer's Collection

Small Group Safari

Specialists

There’s a kind of safari that takes you closer to the wild… a kind with fewer frills and a great deal more bush. That’s the Adventurer’s Collection: a gathering of camps, houseboats, mobile expeditions and brilliantly off-grid stays across Botswana and Namibia made for travellers who want to get a little bit dusty and properly stuck in.

Picture gliding through lily-scattered Okavango Delta channels on a houseboat, hippos snorting just off the bow. Or waking in a Bakalanga hut among baobabs as fat as cathedrals, the dawn chorus as your alarm clock. Whether this is your first safari or your tenth, our expert guides and on-the-ground knowledge will take you deeper into Southern Africa, brilliantly and honestly, and definitely with no airs or graces.

Our Destinations

We specialise in two countries that we know down to the dust, Botswana and Namibia… and offer two very different ways of being wild.

Botswana

38% of Botswana is dedicated to wildlife, much of it only reachable by mokoro, boat or wing. It’s also home to some of Africa’s finest reserves, from the Okavango Delta, the Moremi and the Makgadikgadi salt pans – and it’s properly, gloriously wild.

Namibia

With its apricot dunes and gravel plains so vast you can see them from space, Namibia plays tricks on the eyes. Add a 55-million-year-old desert and elephants padding across the sand, and it’s a country that’s made for adventure, just the way we like it.

Why choose us for your

adventure

01

Small group specialists.

We are small group safari specialists with an extensive knowledge of Botswana and Namibia (and it’s not from a guidebook).

02

Seamless logistics.

With careers spent operating safaris in Southern Africa, we keep the standards consistent and the logistics of every journey seamless.

03

A budget that works.

We focus your budget on the parts of a safari that actually matter: properly wild places and brilliant guiding – and we will never compromise on them.

04

Eight guests. No more.

Our scheduled trips are capped at eight travellers, keeping the group small enough for real access and a deeper connection with the guides, plus a window seat for everyone.

05

Full of character.

Every property in our collection has been chosen for its character and individuality. The size of the bathtubs comes well down the list!
