Price on application 

Embark on a journey that engages all your senses with a guided walking safari in the heart of the African bush. Walk in the spoor of wild animals, where every rustle in the grass quickens your pulse. With an experienced professional guide by your side, you'll learn the art of tracking and see how close you can get to creatures like impala and nyala without being noticed. Imagine crouching behind a bush, watching in awe as an elephant or rhino moves gracefully past you. This isn’t just a walk; it’s an invitation to discover a world where each sound, scent, and bent blade of grass tells a story. Our expertly trained and qualified guides follow strict protocols to ensure your safety and comfort throughout the adventure. Designed for guests aged fourteen and older, these bush walks always prioritize your well-being.
