Details of Etosha National Park

Namibia's largest and most well-known national park, Etosha is the best place in Namibia for game viewing and one of the best places in southern Africa to see animals such as the lion, elephant, rhinoceros, and cheetah in their natural habitat.

The arid park surrounds a vast salt pan and in dry season sees tens of thousands of animals converging on the few waterholes that remain. This makes for exemplary game viewing, and the park's good roads and lodges make it the perfect place to go on a self-drive safari.

A number of lodges and facilities can be found both within and on the borders of the park, making it a great place to spend a few days and ensure you check everything off your 'to see' list.

Kenya's Safari story usually gets told through the Maasai Mara, Amboseli, and the Big Five. However, beyond those famous names there are mountain forests, flamingo-covered lakes, dry northern reserves, conservation projects, and gorges. You can actually walk through on foot on these gorges. That's where an Off-Beat Kenya Safari comes...

A first Kenya Safari usually centres on the big names. For instance, lions, elephants, the Maasai Mara and the excitement of seeing everything for the first time. A second trip feels different. There's less pressure to complete a checklist. There's more room to notice the small stuff: how a herd...

A Hadzabe Tribe Visit Tanzania gets sold on almost every Lake Eyasi itinerary, a dawn hunt, the click sounds of the language, arrows and honey. What most travellers never learn is how much of what they saw was arranged in advance for them to see. This blog explains who the...

Most first safaris get built around a fear of missing out, six parks, six days, a new lodge every night. What you get is a holiday spent mostly in transit, watching Tanzania slide past through a window. A Slow Safari Tanzania flips that. Fewer parks, more nights, deeper time with...
