Special
Personally Hosted Safaris
We’re
heading back to Botswana in 2008 to purchase more
crafts to stock Cecilia’s shop and while we’re there we’re going
to host a very special safari. The trip combine incredible game
viewing with unique cultural experiences.
The
Kuru Dance Festival Safari- This safari highlights the D’kar
Trust’s incredible annual Traditional Dance Festival. This 12 day trip will also trek into the middle of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve‘s wilderness
and the Makgadikgadi Pan’s
National Park.
Special
9 day supplement - This add-on trip is a 9
day comprehensive wildlife safari that will visit most of the
parks plus bring
you to a must see in Africa, the Zambian
side of Vic Falls.
Notes
for all hosted trips -
All
trips are timed to allow for guests to leave the US on
a Saturday and arrive back on a Saturday to for a day of recuperation.
The
trips are limited to a maximum of 8 guests and designed to be at
a relaxing pace yet still cover a lot of ground. We almost always
stay two nights in each location. The accommodations are a mix of
established lodges and fully catered luxury
camping (Mobile Safaris are the traditional
safaris). Transportation will be in a customized Land Rover game
viewing vehicle with a canvas top and roll down windows with an
accompanying support Land Rover.
Cecilia
and Peter will be hosting guests the entire time except during the
craft buying trip when guests are at the luxury lodge in the Okavango
Delta for the three days. We will also provide you with all kinds
of pre-trip information such as what to expect, what clothes and
accessories to pack, and a list of books that cover the wildlife,
culture, and history of the places and people we’ll be visiting.
And, for guests in the northeastern US, we will happily meet with
you and give you a pre-trip PowerPoint presentation. For guests
beyond our travel distance, we can provide a DVD of the PowerPoint
presentation.
