Inspirational safari & beach holiday to Botswana and Seychelles
Safari and beach without the unnecessary frills. Combine an authentic and relaxed Botswana safari with a simplistic and understated Seychelles beach stay. Both allow the pristine natural surroundings to take centre stage. Spend 4 nights at Splash Camp in the Okavango Delta far from the stresses of modern life. Expert guides will introduce you to the abundant wildlife on thrilling game drives, boat trips, mokoro excursions (dug-out canoes) and walking safaris. Not only that, but the wildlife also often roams right through camp creating memorable moments and brilliant photographic opportunities.
Follow this bucket-list safari with a stay at the boutique Carana Beach Hotel on the main island of Mahé Island Seychelles. Here, you'll be able to relax in a lovely pool chalet with private plunge pool, beside a sublime bay and beach. If you wish to explore superb nature and wildlife, as well as its lovely Creole hospitality and local experiences, Carana Beach is superbly located for excursions around Mahé as well as to outer islands.
