Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda

Dates:

August 2019 - dates to be confirmed

Nothing can prepare you for the awe-inspiring experience of trekking in the green heart of Africa to the endangered Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda.  Being eye-to-eye with one of our closest relatives is something you will never forget and a privilege very few get to enjoy.  This incredible journey starts in Kigali and includes 3 nights at the award-winning, community-owned Sabyinyo Silverback Lodge in the Virunga Mountains.  This is a journey that will touch your soul.  It’s also one that gives back more than most safaris because each gorilla permit (costing US$1500) is a direct contribution to the future survival of the species. Tammie’s safari includes 2 full days trekking to the gorillas.

Botswana conservation safari

Dates: Two departures on 12 and 18 June 2018 (6 nights)

Botswana is the home of the world's largest population of elephants, so where better than to get up close and personal with the planet's biggest land mammal than in the magnificent World Heritage listed wetlands of the Okavango Delta!  This part of Africa is renowned for its high density of wildlife in a pristine setting, and Tammie's safari is timed to be there at the start of the annual flood and during the zebra migration, allowing the best possible game viewing.  This safari journeys into the Okavango Delta and the Makgadigadi Pans and surroundings, providing outstanding wildlife viewing in a diverse range of habitats.  You will also have the chance to spend time with the traditional San Bushmen and maybe even see some meerkats.  You will get to try out game-viewing from a traditional mokoro (wooden canoe), a truly peaceful experience where you get a frog's-eye view of the Delta.  The special feature of this safari is that we will be horse riding at Makatoo Camp for those who are horse riders, a very special opportunity!  This safari has it all and is a must for elephant lovers especially!
