Frequently Asked Questions

Is a walking safari safe?

Yes. An armed ranger and a trained guide lead every walk, keeping a safe distance from wildlife and choosing routes carefully. You will receive a full safety briefing before your first walk.

How fit do I need to be?

A reasonable level of fitness is enough. Walks usually last two to three hours at a gentle pace, with regular stops to look at tracks, plants and wildlife.

Can I rest during the walks?

Yes. Your ranger chooses safe spots for short breaks, where you can sit, drink water and take in your surroundings.

What should I wear?

Wear lightweight, neutral-coloured clothing in khaki, olive or brown, with comfortable walking shoes or light hiking boots. Avoid bright colours and noisy fabrics, and bring a hat and sunscreen.

Do I need to bring my own walking gear?

Bring your own footwear, a small daypack and a refillable water bottle. Our team arranges everything else, including drinking water and snacks on longer walks.
