It is frustrating to be forced to look at alternative destinations because you can’t find an affordable fully inclusive safari holiday in the region. It can be hard to find personality-filled, authentic traditional camps and one-company-one-circuit itineraries can lead to brand fatigue and a sense of monotony. Local operators can be hard to find and working with them one-on-one takes effort and requires a time commitment to understand their product and connect with them.

The Pack offers easy access to the region’s independent safari camps and lodges.

Our unique and independent Pack Members are:
We have a combined experience of over 35 years in Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia’s travel industry and have witnessed the shift towards higher-end experiences and prices which cut passionate and dedicated safari goers out of this unique and special region. We have seen well-priced, interesting, and unique safari camps be overlooked in favour of their larger competitors. Our passion for authentic and individual camps combined with our desire to see small, independent, locally-owned businesses succeed in a challenging environment led to us founding The Pack, a community with common goals and support for each other.

At The Pack, we know that you want to create a unique itinerary that suits your client and provides them with the safari of their dreams in their budget.
To do that, you need easy access to a choice of authentic, well-priced options. The challenge is that Botswana’s tourism market is dominated by high-end properties making you feel overwhelmed and excluded additionally it is hard to keep up with new properties in the region.
We believe that maintaining a diversity of available experiences is important as all safari goers should be able to come on holiday to experience Botswana and Zimbabwe. We understand how hard it is to find mid-range safari accommodation that offers a great experience and is independent which is why we used the opportunity to bring these wonderful owner-run camps that were previously overlooked together to create a community which elevates their presence.
