We’ve put together a list of FAQ to help you better understand what a safari is all about and to help you prepare your trip.
The high or dry season corresponds to the dry months where water access is limited as it hardly rains. Mornings can be a bit cool with temperatures ranging from 8-25˚C and warmer afternoon temperatures. It corresponds to summer holiday in Europe and the US. Game viewing is facilitated as trees shed their leaves and animals congregate around more restricted water sources.
The high season is consequently the most popular and accommodations’ rates are at their highest. This means that if you want to run a retreat or workshop in the dry season you need to plan well in advance. Lodges can be booked a year or more in advance.
During summer, the temperature can rise to around 40˚C, especially around December-January. Rain does occur but it does not last for long. Vegetation is more abundant, greener and thicker. Consequently, game-viewing can be more challenging. However, this is also the time when most animals give birth so you might see many young animals, as well as much hunting activity by predators.
This is the ideal bird-watching season as it coincides with the return of the migratory birds. This season is less touristy, so reservations are more flexible and you can usually find special rates.
Prior to any booking confirmation, you will receive a dietary requirement form that each participant of the retreat will be asked to fill in.
The main diets that we’ll be able to accommodate you with are vegetarian (meat-free), vegan, gluten, wheat or lactose-free. For other specific diets or nutrition/detox retreats, please send us an enquiry. Chefs can plan menus for the whole course of your stay.
Most destinations we select for you have access to a large variety of quality vegetables and fruits and free-range meat or venison. We support local organic food projects and farming.
Expect been pampered with yummy food wherever you’ll stay. Even the simplest bush camps will put extra effort into making the most basics products and ingredients very appealing.
Malaria is a serious disease transmitted by the bite of the Anopheles mosquito. Summer (October-Ap ril) is the time were malaria is more present. It is endemic in the Limpopo and Mpumalanga provinces of SA and in Botswana. We recommend that you consult with your doctor about a possible prophylactic treatment before your departure. Mosquitoes are mainly active during the evenings.
A few good habits to get from day one:
Most safaris, transfers and internal flights are booked many months in advance due to the high demand. When a cancellation occurs, we have to pass on substantial cancellation charges to the relevant lodges and suppliers. The closer the date of the safari, the higher those charges will be.
Please read carefully our Terms and Conditions for more information on our cancellation policy.
