Flying safaris are safaris in which guests are flown within or near the wildlife reserves that are to be visited. They are then usually picked up at the airport or airstrip upon arrival and driven to their camp or lodge — which is often a game drive in itself
Maiko National Park
Driving Safaris are simply safaris in which guests are driven by their driver/guide from reserve to reserve. You generally have the same guide throughout the safari, who have very good knowledge of all the parks and reserves to be visited. This safari is less expensive than flying safaris.
A few important notes
- Consider choosing smaller camps and lodges that are unfenced where wildlife is allowed to walk freely about the grounds.
- In terms of the long-term future of Africa’s wildlife reserves, it is important to consider selecting a destination from which local people benefit in tangible ways.
- To be guided by or to meet happy people from various cultures and to learn about their customs will greatly enhance your trip to Africa.
- Another excellent way to get the most out of your adventure is to have a private safari arranged for you. On this safari You do not have to bow to the wishes of the majority of the group or a set itinerary of group departures. With your guide, you are basically free to explore your own interests, spend as much time as you want photographing particular animals, and generally do things at a pace that suits you. In some cases, for an extra charge you can book a private vehicle for your party when on a flying safari or on a group driving safari.
- We highly recommend this option as it allows you greater flexibility as to how you spend your time during the day.
