African Big Five Safari Bucket List Experiences

Big game walking safari, Phinda Private Game Reserve, South Africa

This walking safari is specially focused on enjoying a view of a member of the Big Five safely on foot – possibly without tracking. Depending on the reserve’s rules and regulations, animals can sometimes be in an area where vehicles are not allowed to drive on, or can’t access due to the terrain. This, however, provides a great opportunity to try and safely view these animals on foot with your highly experienced guide. *Note: age restriction of 16 and over.

Testimonials

  • "Kyle and Leah at Ubuntu Travel curated my wife's and my Honeymoon. We put a lot of faith in their hands as we had no idea how to plan a Safari vacation. We gave them a budget, and they offered us a couple of different options that could work. Throughout the decision making process they were responsive, professional, and so helpful. We ended up on doing a week in and around Cape Town followed by Safari at Ngala in South Africa and the Okavango Delta in Botswana. It was perfect; the logistics of the trip were seamless. We wouldn't have changed a single thing. The Ubuntu team completely understood what we wanted for honeymoon and delivered. We have already recommended them to friends and family who are looking to try their first or second or third safari. Thanks Ubuntu!"

  • "We used Ubuntu Travel for our Honeymoon and could not have been more pleased. They took care of everything and made us not have to think about all the ins and outs of traveling all over South Africa, allowing us to enjoy our trip. The facilities at the safari lodges were phenomenal. Would and have recommended them to everyone!!"

    Michael and Anna Hoffie
  • "My husband, Marquise Goodwin, and I would like to thank Ubuntu Travel group for putting our Africa experience together. Kyle worked so hard to get our trip planned at the last minute. He’s very knowledgeable about Africa and he really focuses on quality. Ubuntu Travel even provided us with luggage for our trip because they knew of the luggage restrictions for certain parts of our trip. All of our accommodations were beautiful and unique in their own way. I think our favorite place would’ve had to been Rwanda where we went gorilla trekking. Followed by our game drives of course in KwaZulu-Natal. When we go back to Africa, we will definitely be using Ubuntu Travel again to create another unique Africa experience."

  • "Thank you Ubuntu Travel Team! We cannot thank you enough for the expert attention to detail throughout each phase of our adventure. From pre-planning, vaccination assistance, to accommodations and experiences once on the ground; our trip is one that exceeded all expectations. We would like to make special note of the incredibly kind and knowledgeable safari guides and resort staff that accompanied us throughout our stay. Every inquiry we had regarding landscape or animal species was thoroughly answered. These guides are all highly educated and the proficiency displayed by each and every guide while on safari added even more to the value and enjoyment of our holiday. We truly fell in love with the land and the people. Thank you for providing us with the trip of a lifetime."
