Activities

Most guests come to Africa to commune with nature; with awe-inspiring elephants and rhinos that roam great plains, fearsome lions and leopards, primeval savannahs where man first walked the Earth. The surest and safest way to see these sights is on a game drive in a modern safari vehicle.

However, there are a number of other activities and pastimes that make up a classic Ker & Downey safari – and many of these offer diverse new perspectives on experiencing wilderness.

Camping on private ranches and community trust lands offers a rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of our ancestors, tracking large mammals on foot or riding a horse among herds of game. K&D also has close ties with several specialised camel operators, who offer uniquely elemental encounters – with optional nights sleeping under the stars.

Our links with the best air charter and helicopter companies allow us to incorporate any number of active – or relaxing – activities in a safari itinerary.
