YOUR SAFARI GUIDE

Karibu Safari leaders are selected for their experience of the African bush and this will ensure that your safari is enjoyable and successful. The guides are in the full time employ of the company and are thoroughly trained professionals. Local resident managers of the company in Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Namibia, personally supervise safaris. Detailed information on the history of the area, fauna and flora is given to participants during the safari. All safaris are conducted in English with certain safaris being conducted in English, French and Italian.

Drinks and mineral water are not included on the safari. You may purchase your own drinks en route from a bottle store or supermarket, or from the bars at the tented camps, lodges and hotels.

AFRICAN CONDITIONS

Please note that the itineraries will depend on local conditions. Traveling in Africa is sometimes unpredictable. By the very nature of traveling in remote areas there are unforeseen challenges to overcome and passengers should have a taste for adventure. Unforeseen circumstances due to problems with road conditions, weather, mechanical breakdown or accidents can delay and change the performance of the safari. Please come prepared.

CONSERVATION

Most countries are members of CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) which restricts the import/ export of numerous species and their products. In the interest of Wildlife Conservation and Ecotourism we ask you to please refrain from purchasing any shells, corals, animal skins, ivory or wildlife products. These may be confiscated by customs. Please be aware that the purchase of large wooden carvings place a strain on forest resources - Rather purchase small items.
