Game drive, snorkelling and sundowners. Then spend two nights in Santa Maria at the end of the trail to soak up all that Santa Maria has to offer.

Eco Trail

5 DAYS · PERMANENT TENTED CAMPS · SAME ROUTE

The Eco Trail is exactly the same as the 5 Day Trail, except the accommodation is a bit more rustic: permanent tented safari camps rather than lodges, as well as a slightly longer walk on Day 2.

This package is for those of you who are camping enthusiasts and have experience in pushing the boundary in terms of endurance (hiking or trails) and being closely connected to the elements.

On Fly

Catch Trophy Game Fish on Fly Rod

6 DAYS · 4 FISHING DAYS · FLY ONLY

This experience is exactly the same as the Fishing Safari, except here, we go the extra mile to hook you up to trophy game fish on a fly rod. This is not for the purist fly-fisherman, nor do you need to know how to cast a fly rod. This experience is aimed at those that are after the excitement and adrenaline rush of going toe-to-toe with trophy game fish on a fly rod. There's nowhere else in the world you can experience this, at this price.
