What It Looks Like
Extraordinary African Safaris
A camp that moves with you into the wildest corners — pitched fresh each night close to the action, the modern heir to the classic expedition safari.
A mobile camping safari is the romantic heart of the safari tradition: a lightweight camp that a crew sets up and strikes for you, moving deeper into the wilderness or following the migration so you’re always close to the action. It’s a notch up from public-site camping — walk-in tents with proper beds and en-suite bucket showers — but far wilder and more flexible than a fixed lodge.
Because the camp travels, you can sleep in places fixed lodges can’t reach: a private clearing in the northern Serengeti during the crossings, or a remote stretch of the Selous with no one else around. A dedicated crew, cook, and guide look after you, and the campfire under a vast sky is unforgettable.
The crew pitches camp in a private, wild location before you arrive.
Game drives and walks straight from your remote base.
The camp relocates to keep you near the migration or quiet game.
Dinner cooked over the fire, then a sky thick with stars.
This is our pick for travellers who want the romance and remoteness of classic camping with a step up in comfort. It costs more than public-site camping because of the private crew and exclusive locations, but it buys solitude money can't otherwise reach. Not for those who need plumbing and Wi-Fi.
These are the destinations we most often pair with Mobile Camping Safari, based on route flow, season, and how the wider itinerary fits together.
Endless plains, two million migrating wildebeest, and Africa's highest concentration of big cats — the park every safari dream is measured against.
