Sustainable conservation through responsible tourism is at the heart of what Wilderness does, and today the company protects six million acres of land. With over sixty camps spanning eight African nations, Wilderness aims to help travellers discover Earth’s ultimate untamed places, providing luxurious safari experiences while safeguarding Africa’s wildlife heritage. The company also prioritises community empowerment, with many of its 3,000+ employees living in neighbouring communities. Further solidifying this dedication, Wilderness supports the impactful non-profits Children in the Wilderness and Wilderness Trust, ensuring the continued realisation of its conservation vision.

Few other safari companies can compete with Wilderness’s access to Africa’s wildest and most remote spaces and custodianship of vast tracts of private land. Some of its most impressive destinations, as well as its flagship property Wilderness Mombo Camp, are in Botswana. Overall, we find these camps offer a perfect balance between luxury and authenticity. Wilderness Magashi Peninsula is the company’s latest venture. Due to open in 2025 in Rwanda’s Akagera National Park, it will provide an ideal pairing with the wildly successful Wilderness Bisate, which delivers one of the country’s top gorilla-trekking expeditions. The Wilderness safari guides are some of the finest in the industry, so guests can be sure they’re in the best possible hands. Aside from its award-winning camps and lodges, the brand incorporates its own private airline, a multi-layered conservation division, and a collection of trade partners. Wilderness follows a low-volume, high-value tourism model that protects Africa’s wild spaces while immersing guests in some of the world’s outermost reaches and unique environments. Positive impact is key to the company’s vision, and its philanthropic framework consists of three pillars: educate, empower, and protect.

Located in Botswana's Okavango Delta, Wilderness Mombo is often described as the finest safari camp in Africa – and it has always been a favourite at Yellow Zebra. Unbelievably good for game all year, Wilderness Mombo is a property that is often booked out over a year in advance.

Overlooking the Kunene River close to Namibia’s border with Angola, Wilderness Serra Cafema is one of the most remote camps in Africa. A dream destination for adventure-seekers, the camp offers authentic interactions with Himba communities, seasonal boating, dune-sensitive quad biking, and some fascinating nature walks.

Wilderness Usawa Serengeti is a superb mobile tented camp experience that follows the Great Migration, moving between nine key migration sites. This means absolute prime wildlife viewing, proximity to the action, and the flexibility to keep well away from the crowds!
