Mobile Safari Expeditions made for you

The unsurpassed wildlife diversity that Botswana has to offer is best experienced on the move and a Mobile Expedition provides a more adventurous and authentic alternative to the usual permanent camps. With the flexibility to move the camp into the remotest areas of the Okavango Delta we can accommodate personal tastes and preferences offering a wider variety of experiences and areas than a permanent camp. These mobile safari expeditions hold true to the ideals of Jack Bousfield’s original operations in East Africa. Traditional and spacious tents appointed with 1920s luxury and style blend bygone comfort with rugged panache. Polished copper water jugs, paraffin lamps, pure white cotton sheets and feather bedding ensure an authentic safari experience – Real adventure in unreal style! The areas you will visit are remote, wild and starkly beautiful… Putt along the maze of channels stopping to admire the fantastic bird life, learn about the ecology of the waters and look at the important components of the ecosystems, or spend an evening fly camping on a remote island. Walking, game drives and boat trips fade seamlessly into one enthralling blur.

Set between three of Botswana’s most renowned safari destinations; the Okavango Delta, Linyanti and Chobe National Park, Wilderness Mokete is surrounded by the abundant wildlife of the Mababe wetlands. Built to leave the smallest environmental impact, Wilderness Mokete strives to conserve one of our planet’s last remaining pristine wildlife areas.  The first and only one of its kind, Wilderness Mokete will be a limited edition camp which is only available to book for two years, beginning in September 2023, a once-in-a-lifetime experience for a select few. The camp is stylish, minimalist and pioneering in its design with specialist slide-away roofs that reveal the neverending sea of stars at night. The tented rooms and social areas are open to the natural world with no walls but instead cleverly designed panels that stretch away from the tent, creating shaded areas and a distinctive aesthetic. There are just nine tents, accommodating 18 guests, and as the only camp in 50,000 hectares of grasslands, marsh and forest, the experience is utterly exclusive. Despite the remote location, Wilderness Mokete offers impressive facilities; guests can enjoy the bar and restaurant and also the refreshing outdoor swimming pool. All rooms have en suite bathrooms (that come with privacy screens), a verandah, electrical outlets and internet access.  The activities at camp encourage guests to try new experiences; take full-day game drives, go on night drives, enjoy a bush lunch with zebras and elephants for company, spend time in the sunken hide, go on birdwatching bushwalks to spot some of Africa’s rarest birds and then sip your sundowner over the uninterrupted views of greatest expanse of grasslands in Botswana.  

One of the most famous camps in all of Africa, Wilderness Mombo rightly deserves its reputation due to its remarkable game viewing experiences coupled with the service and luxury of the camp.
