M15503 specializes in small (up to 7) safari parties and believe our clients get the best of both worlds - a small personalized group with a minimum of staff, yet the comfort of a fully backed up safari. A customized Mercedes Benz Unimog vehicle used is set up so it can carry the complete camp in comfort. It allows unsurpassed photographic opportunities as well as a feeling of safety when close to dangerous animals that is often lacking in an open vehicle! The Unimog has a comprehensive reference library that clients are welcome to peruse, with books on Birds, Insects, Mammals, Snakes and Reptiles, Tree's, Shrubs and Botswana in general.
