SAFARI

View wildlife from the water

River thrills.

 

The flap of an elephant’s ear. The snort of a hippo. A startled crocodile sliding into the water with barely a splash. Watch and listen for these special moments on a boating safari, in search of aquatic wonders in the wild. Spy rare birds in the reeds, antelope and predators slaking their thirst, herds of elephant crossing a channel. Up close, in the wilderness, on an unforgettable boating safari.

BOAT SAFARI

Boating adventures

Binoculars ready, round a bend in a Delta channel, and spy a pair of rare wattled cranes. Camera ready, watch a herd of elephants wade across the Linyanti River. Delight in a cruise down the Kunene River or a glowing sunset on the Zambezi. A boat safari with Wilderness brings you closer to encountering iconic African wildlife. On their level, on their terms, in their habitat.

Water is the lifeblood of Africa. It sustains her creatures, great and small, and her people. It’s a source of life, and of adventure. From the channels of the wild Okavango Delta to the wide, languid Zambezi you can find rest, or a rush, on our water-based safaris.
