Do you like the idea and thrill of driving yourself through the African bush in your own 4 x 4 vehicle?
How about combining that with a guided game viewing experience from a local Professional Guide with two decades of guiding experience throughout Botswana? The result is the thrill of the 4 x 4 challenge plus a relaxed, great game viewing experience in the back of our custom buildt, open Landcruiser game viewer with great photographic opportunities and lots of information on the flaura and fauna of Botswana.
At THRU-THE-LENS NATURE SAFARIS, we offer you the opportunity to test your 4 x 4 off-road driving skills in the real African wilderness and also still be able to sit back and enjoy the bush whilst we find the animals!

Your guide will lead you in convoy through deep sand tracks and sometimes water crossings as you drive yourselves from campsite to campsite in each destination. At the various campsites and after setting camp, you can now enjoy a fully guided experience in an open gameviewer.
Whilst in camp, the day will start with an early breakfast prepared by yourselves (guest’s prepare all meals) followed by an early morning game drive of about 3 – 4 hours duration before heading back to camp. Afternoon drives will also go out for 3 – 4 hours until park closing time before heading back to dinner around the fire. On moving days to the next destination, we will all drive in convoy offering local knowledge of road systems and finding further sightings of wildlife. |
To enjoy the wild spaces and wildife that Botswana has to offer, we would advise you that we work on a 3 night stay in each destination and that we can accommodate a minimum of 4 people travelling and a maximum of 7. We are able to accommodate two people, however, we would require receiving payment for four. Our group sizes ensures that everyone gets a window seat whilst out on game drive and therefore everyone gets a great photographic and wildife observation opportunity with little obstruction. Each private guided self drive safari with us also ensures that it will be just you and your family or just you and friends.
