  • Wilderness Safaris Apart
    Our journeys change lives Our journeys change lives Below: A mobile safari in the early days, circa 1985 Above: Staff at Kalahari Plains singing to guests 2 3 The story of Wilderness It was in Botswana that we first fell in love with the wilderness. In 1983, two experienced safari guides, Colin Bell and Chris MacIntyre, who had been working in the remote reaches of Botswana, decided to strike out on their own. They wanted to somehow guarantee that the financial benefits of their safaris flowed to the country and its people, ensuring the sustainable protection of the country’s wildlife areas. In retrospect this approach was logical and today forms the cornerstone and central tenet of ecotourism the world over, but in the early 1980s it was a groundbreaking philosophy and set Wilderness Safaris apart. What also set us apart was our fervent desire to offer authentic safaris that catered for people as passionate about nature as we were. So, registering Wilderness Safaris as a Botswana company with a logo representing the African skimmer (a bird restricted to pristine ecosystems), we based ourselves in Maun, south of the Okavango Delta, and started running mobile safaris. By 1985, we had begun to establish tented camps on exclusive sites in the Okavango Delta. Then, in 1990, we were offered an opportunity to run an unknown camp called Mombo on Chief’s Island. It was in an area that had been heavily hunted, but within a few years of photographic safaris, Mombo had rapidly developed an enviable international reputation. This was achieved mostly through exceptional viewing of large predator species in a spectacular landscape into which plains game streamed once it was clear that hunting was no longer practiced there.
