Chase Africa Safaris is a mobile safari operation based in Botswana that specialises in private guided safari experiences across some of the country’s most iconic wildlife landscapes. The mobile safari model involves setting up camp in off-the-beaten-track locations within national parks and conservation areas, providing direct access to pristine wilderness and wildlife without the crowds typical of fixed properties. 

Chase Africa Safaris offers a range of service levels that accommodate different preferences for comfort and style, from more basic camping options to more fully appointed tented experiences. Each mobile safari is designed to be private to the travelling party, meaning that the camp setup, guides, and activities are dedicated exclusively to that group for the duration of the itinerary. 

Accommodation

The mobile safari setup adapts to the chosen service level, allowing flexibility in how the environment is experienced:

Budget level features dome-style tents with basic amenities, stretchers, and an en suite bathroom with a dry toilet and warm bucket shower, offering a simple yet functional connection with nature. 

Comfort level provides larger Sahara-style or Meru style tents with full beds and en suite dry toilets and bucket showers, offering more space and enhanced comfort. 

Luxury level includes classic Meru style tents outfitted with additional furnishings, a lounge area, and en suite bathroom facilities with a warm shower and flush toilet, blending wilderness immersion with higher-end comfort. 

The mobile camps are usually set up in dedicated private sites within national parks or game reserves, offering uninterrupted access to wildlife and nature while maintaining a minimal environmental footprint. 

Activities

Activities available during a Chase Africa Safari reflect the rhythms and richness of Botswana’s wild landscapes. These can vary by location and service level but typically include:

Game Drives through national parks and wildlife areas, guided by experienced professionals who interpret animal behaviour, tracks, and habitats. These excursions take visitors deep into wildlife territories for close-up viewing opportunities. 

Night Drives that explore nocturnal wildlife activity after dark using specialised vehicles and lighting. 

Mokoro Rides (traditional dugout canoe excursions) where available, especially in wetland areas like the Okavango Delta, providing a quiet and immersive way to view aquatic wildlife and birdlife. 

Boat Cruises on major rivers such as the Chobe, offering perspectives of riverine wildlife and birds in habitats not easily accessed by road. 

Guided Bush Walks led by experienced guides, offering close-up insights into tracks, small wildlife, and plant life.

Additional optional activities often include cultural interactions, scenic flights, and visits to regional attractions depending on itinerary and location. 

Mobile Safari Concept

Chase Africa Safaris operates primarily as a mobile safari provider, which means that accommodation and camp facilities are set up temporarily in chosen wilderness sites. This approach supports a low-impact ecological footprint because camps are packed up and removed after each stay, leaving no permanent infrastructure behind. Solar power and conservative water practices are common elements of the mobile safari setup, further aligning the experience with environmentally mindful travel. 

Each safari itinerary is tailored in consultation with travellers, allowing private experiences that reflect the interests and travel style of the group. Guides remain with the party throughout the trip, enhancing continuity and familiarity with both wildlife patterns and guest preferences. 

Location and Access

Safaris with Chase Africa take place across Botswana’s most celebrated wildlife regions, including areas around the Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park, Moremi Game Reserve, and other remote game territories. Access to these mobile camps is generally by road from regional hubs such as Maun or Kasane, with additional options for light aircraft or helicopter transfers to select sites dependent on itinerary and location.
