Africa Camping Safaris Inside National Parks
By Julia Barnes
The continent of Africa encompasses expansive areas
in almost all of its countries that are perfect for
camping safaris. One reason for this is that there is
quite a wide array of camping sites that are available
right within many of the parks and reserves, some of
which are semi-permanent "under canvas"
campsites.
There are also a myriad of sites for camping that are
adjacent to private establishments, like safari lodges,
resorts and large hotels, which provide even more variety
for those who want to make camping part of their safari
travel adventure.
A camping safari is a very common choice for safari
holidays partly because it tends to be less expensive
than staying at the fine lodges and resorts, although
there are also some luxury safari options for camping
out in Africa as well.
Options Include Private Camping Safari Or Group Camping
Safari
In general, travelers who review their options and
are planning to take in the sights and sounds of Africa
while camping have the option of either arranging for
a private camping safari or a group camping safari.
Private camping safaris are arranged to accommodate
groups as small as two people and for any size group
that prefers to travel together but that don’t want
to deal with strangers during their trip, with the exception
of the safari guide and staff.
Separate Camp Facilities For Private Groups
Private groups will have separate camp facilities from
any other safari group that might be touring the same
vicinity and they have separate transportation as
well.
Those who prefer a private camping safari will also
be exclusively sharing any facilities of the campground
and all of the meals are also shared amongst themselves.
Guests who are on a private safari won’t be joined by
any others who are on the same safari tour or who might
have a similar itinerary. Throughout the trip, they
travel exclusively together.
Traveling With Others On A Group Safari
The group camping safari is for individuals or small
groups who feel that part of the experience of safari
holidays is traveling with others and getting to know
them during the adventure, so that by the end of the
safari travel they no longer consider each other as
strangers.
On this type of safari travel the whole group travels
together in the safari vehicles and they share their
meals and the entire camp facility, and in some instances
will even share larger, community types of tent
accommodations.
Group Camping Safari Are An Effective Way To Reduce
Costs
A group camping safari is not only a good way to get
to know others who share interests in adventuresome
safari travels, but it is also a very effective way
to reduce the cost of an African safari. This can make
such a trip more affordable and feasible for people
who might not otherwise be able to bear the expense
of a private camping safari.
Some camping safaris take place at a permanent campground
where the safari tour group will stay at a fixed "under
canvas" camp. These are essentially tent "homes"
that are primarily found in game reserves or at national
parks.
These camps have "permanent" tented sanitary
facilities and a dining hall that is shared by all campers.
These kind of camping facilities are popular and can
serve as a base camp for walking safaris.
Mobile Camping Safaris Are Constantly On The Move
The mobile types of camping safaris are constantly
on the move and usually camp in different locations
each night. All of their camping equipment and necessary
supplies are carried along in the safari vehicles and
this approach extends the area that the tour is able
to cover.
It also allows the group the freedom to stop at areas
that have caught their attention and allows much greater
flexibility and potential for adventure. Regardless
of which kind of camping safari trip you end up taking,
you will no doubt arrive back home with indelible memories
that will last forever.

When those winter months seem to be dragging by and
the cold, wet weather has you down it can cause anyone
to get the blues. Perhaps it is the frantic holiday
season that inspires so many couples to looking into
romantic getaways.
Why would they not? Every couple needs some alone time
to recharge their batteries. They need the chance to
discover that they have lives outside of family, friends
and work. The great thing is: you do not have to take
out a second mortgage just to finance a vacation.
