On Safari with Hidden Trails
Join Hidden Trails on some of the most breathtaking safaris in Africa. Choose from safaris on horseback, jeep or on foot. Our safaris cover much of Eastern and Southern Africa, including Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia and South Africa.
In East Africa - Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda - embark on a safari amongst some of the continent’s most spectacular scenery, including Kilimanjaro and the Masai Mara Game Reserve.
Southern Africa is a safari paradise, with some of Africa’s best private game reserves located in Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
Several of our riding safari lodges are very well suited for riders and non-riders alike, so a perfect destination for riding and non riding groups or couples. Have a look at our Waterberg Safari Lodge in South Africa or our safaris in Botswana and Namibia. Gaze in awe at the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Explore the Ngorongoro and Serengeti in Tanzania or the Masai Mara in Kenya. It will be an experience of a lifetime!
