Happy Mother’s Day from all on the Ark!
Our most recent adventures took us to the Mashatu Game Reserve in Eastern Botswana. Wow! Packed with incredible wildlife and lots of surprises around every corner, Mashatu did not disappoint. Accommodation, service and photographic opportunity make it a must see destination. The highlight, was the hide for brilliant eye level photography.
Our safaris into the wild spaces of Botswana are fully immersive and make use of private sites in the parks and reserves. Our tented camp boasts a private guide and chef allowing the traveller as much time in the bush as possible! Great for photographers and families alike!
And the chase is on! Incredible sighting along the Chobe River as Lions attempt to catch Giraffe. Botswana is truly an outstanding wildlife destination!
The Martin family were back again for their third safari with us into the wild spaces of Botswana! What fun and what incredible sightings including leopard, Lion and Cheetah!
Meeting the Khoisan in the remote Aha Hills in north western Botswana. This is quite the spiritual journey for those who visit. The people hold the key to our most distant past as human beings.
Hanging out with Meerkats on the Makgadikgadi Pans in northern Botswana. This is just one of the many animals one can see here in Botswana. Join the adventure!
Just hanging around in Botswana! What are you up to? Join the adventure into Botswana’s wild places!
What lies beneath. Meet the Namib sand gecko! Found largely in the Namib Desert, these wonderful little creatures hunt crickets and spiders at night. During the day, they bury themselves deep in the sand. Let’s go!
Dream big! This year has been extraordinary for taking kids on safari! Here, our little Elliott scoots across the Makgadikgadi salt flats on a quad bike. It’s a great joy to share this part of the world with the youngsters. 🇧🇼
Just back from an epic safari to The Hide in Hwange National Park. Incredible wildlife and hospitality makes this safari camp a firm favourite for us!
Game viewing in the wildlife rich Okavango Delta! Stunning sightings, sundowners and luxurious lodges make the delta one of the most sought after destinations in Africa!
Our next safari takes us to the luxurious Duba Plains in the Okavango Delta. Stunning design, architecture and cuisine makes this safari camp an absolute winner. This private concession offers up incredible wildlife viewing and photographic opportunities! See you on the other side!
It’s the weekend! Nothing like a tall iced up Gin to get the weekend started! Let’s go!
Upholding the true essence of an African Safari, Barclay Stenner deliver a stunning and exclusive luxury safari under canvas. In the spirit of the early explorers, this moving camp in northern Botswana is a delightful way to see wildlife!

As a travel based company, we are so privileged to live in the Okavango Delta with access to some of the most incredible camps and lodges in Africa! Featured in today’s post is the gorgeous Duke’s Camp. A beautiful blend of safari chic and wildlife experiences.
We are off to Xigera! The lodge is the epitome of luxury and style. Also looking forward to seeing the Okavango in the green season!

Our safaris are winding down for the year. Early rains and beautiful sunsets with some incredible sightings mark the end of season. Here a lioness feeds on a hippo carcass in the Okavango Delta!
Feeding time for the orphans at Elephant Havens just out side of Maun. Fabulous experience!
Hanging out with the San in the Kalahari. Any time spent with these wonderful people is both fascinating and worthwhile. We can learn so much!
The annual floods in the Okavango have reached Maun! So exciting for this incredible eco system and all its inhabitants!
A young Himba Woman on the Kunene River on the Angolan border. A recent safari there brought us into contact with these stunning people and their culture.

Back in my happy space in the Kunene region of far north Namibia! Love hanging out with the incredible Himba people!
We are a safari family! We love showing travellers the amazing sites and sounds of Africa. Our next safari is through Namibia visiting Sossusvlei, Etosha and all the way to visit the Himba people in the north and Epupa Falls. Journey on!
Touch down in Vilanculos and the Bazaruto Archipelago on the coastline of Mozambique. This has been an incredible holiday experience for Robyn, Elliott and myself and well worth a visit. Beautiful reefs and islands offer great snorkelling and diving. The marine sanctuary is under the stewardship of African Parks. Dolphins, turtles and an animal I had yearned to see for many years - the Dugong, can be found here along with whales depending on the season.
If you don’t hear much from us it’s because we’re out there doing what we love! ✌🏼
We feel privileged to be out in the wilderness again, showing people incredible places and the creatures that inhabit them 🐆🇧🇼🐾☀️
