Horseback Safaris

Horses can carry you closer to plains game than a vehicle often can, since animals tend to accept a rider as part of the landscape. Guided rides in selected Botswana reserves let you move at a gentle pace past giraffe, zebra, wildebeest and antelope. Horseback safaris suit riders with some prior experience, as you may canter and cover open ground. Rides are matched to your ability, and riding hats and safety briefings are standard.
