SAFARI SPECTACLE
Safari is the Swahili word for a journey, or expedition. And in the company of knowledgeable and passionate local guides, it can be a journey like no other.
When planning a safari holiday, it’s worth considering the effect of the seasons. The grass can be long in some areas in the wet season, making it more difficult to see animals. Also, the wildlife will disperse during the rains, as they are not so dependent on water holes. So the optimum safari season usually includes winter (May-August) and the hot spring months of September and October. The climate is comfortable in the dry winter months of May, June, July and August. The East Africa migration, when two million wildebeest, Thomson’s gazelles and zebra journey from Serengeti in Tanzania to Masai Mara in Kenya, takes place in August and September. Book early for this unrivalled spectacle!

KALAHARI PRIVATE GAME RESERVE
TSWALU KALAHARI
POA
A horseback safari is a wonderful way to discover South Africa’s largest private game reserve and allows you to get close to wildlife, but you can always choose the conventional Land Rover option.
Horses are available to suit all levels of rider, and from this unintrusive viewpoint you can get close to buffalo, kudu and zebra.
Tswalu takes conservation as its absolute priority. No more than 30 guests at a time can discover the beauty of this Kalahari landscape and its diverse wildlife. The guides are fully knowledgeable about Kalahari ecology.

We want you to be healthy as well as happy on your safari holiday, so do heed all advice from your expert travel specialists, particularly in relation to malaria precautions. You will be out on game drives for hours at a time, and the bare earth intensely reflects the sun’s rays, so those designer sunglasses will come into their own. High factor sunscreen goes without saying; eye drops are also useful as the air can contain fine-particle dust. Wearing long sleeved shirts and trousers before 10am and after 3pm makes a big difference in the battle against mosquitoes. Of course, you’ll pack a bush hat! The Uber team has selected some of the best luggage too, to withstand the long journey.
