A safari holiday is something everybody should try to experience at least once in their lifetime. The excitement of looking for the game, the thrill of seeing the animals in their natural habitats and the whole experience of going back to nature (albeit with plenty of creature comforts).
Imagine game-viewing in a vast natural wilderness untouched by the outside world, there to be explored by just you, your guides and a handful of other guests. You get away from vehicles, allowing you to hear and smell the African bush and really experience Africa with all your senses.
As you are on a horse, animals are not threatened by you. Also you are sitting up high in the saddle and therefore get a great view out over the plains and grasslands. You can gallop endlessly, unrestricted by fences and hedges, and even swim with the horses across channels and pools.
At night you return to your intimate camp, enjoy a sun-downer overlooking a lagoon or waterway in the world famous Okavango Delta. A delicious meal is served to you out under the stars.
There are several camps that offer such tours. Here is a video of a riding safari holiday taken at Motswiri Camp in the Selinda slipway area of Botswana.
