The Safari
The safari starts at Mossell Bay and continues northwards. Some of the places we are going to investigate have not been explored yet, creating opportunities to discover new interesting things.
Safari Team Leader

Making the Team
Those interested in hiking birding, butterflies, general insects, moths, lizards, small mammals, photography and or to spend just a day or two out with us in the field.
How the Trip Works
Taking into consideration that not all enthusiasts have the time or opportunity for a long trip, we have devised a plan to allow anyone to join us at any stage of the trip. From any one place depicted on the map provided for a day or so as it would suit you. Dates, locations and distances are provided as to when and where we will be during the entire trip.
Places to Go (on invitation)
We will be visiting farmers who would like us to investigate their lands (in areas we will be visiting) for new things. We will also be visiting a school here and there (awareness program) and many amazing places of natural beauty.
Prices per day per person
R 150.00
You spend the day with us; get a safari meal and good intellectual company. The day starts early, with a cup of coffee or tea and a snack at the camp fire, then out into the field. When we return from the field around 3pm, we all get to know each other, making new friendships and let our chef prepare our meal of the day around the camp fire. (From tasty curries/stews/spaghetti bolognaise/sandwiches and salads) Bring your own drinks.
Every day our chef prepares a lovely meal on the fire, except when the weather is bad, then on a gas stove.
WhatsApp group: October 2026 Safari (074 422 5577) Send us a WhatsApp to make arrangements to join us for a day or so. You won’t regret it.
