Africa’s Best Safari, Just for Women – Hosted by Evelyn Weskob - July 2026

Most guests will arrive into Maun on a morning flight from Johannesburg, where we will assist you in selecting the correct international connections. After clearing customs, you’ll be met airside and escorted to your light aircraft transfer. The journey into the Okavango Delta is unforgettable — a bird’s-eye view of one of Africa’s most spectacular wildernesses.

Landing at the remote Omdop Airstrip, you’ll be met by your guide for the short game-drive transfer to Duba Explorers Camp. Set under a canopy of mature trees on a private island, the camp is nestled in the northeast of the Duba concession — an area rich with seasonal floodplains and prolific wildlife.

Evelyn Weskob, your host for the journey, will welcome you and introduce the rhythm of the days ahead. Tonight, gather around the fire, listen to the frogs and nightjars, and let the stillness of the wild wash over you.

This morning, you’ll leave Duba Explorers by light aircraft and fly northeast across the Okavango to the Selinda Reserve — a private 130,000-hectare wilderness linking the Delta and the Chobe River system. It’s a haven for elephants, predators, and rarer species like sable and roan antelope.

Zarafa is Botswana’s first and only Relais & Châteaux property, and one of Africa’s most beautiful camps. Each guest suite opens onto views of Zibadianja Lagoon, with private plunge pools, deep copper baths, and an aesthetic that blends luxury with purpose. There are only four suites here — and you’ll have three of them.

Your days include unhurried game drives, walks, and time to reflect. Evelyn will be on hand to share her deep connection with this region — not just the wildlife stories, but the human and conservation histories that shape the land today.

This is a place to slow down, savour the moment, and let the experience deepen.

This morning, you depart Zarafa by light aircraft, landing at Kasane Airport in Botswana. From there, you’ll travel overland via a private transfer into Zimbabwe — a scenic journey that brings you to the grand entrance of The Victoria Falls Hotel.

Steeped in colonial history, the hotel is a calm and elegant base for the next two nights. Its shaded courtyards, gracious lawns, and iconic view of the Victoria Falls Bridge are a world away from the bush — but no less captivating. Evelyn, a trained historian, adds richness and local insight to this stop, whether you’re chatting over tea or walking to the Falls together.

You'll have time to explore at your own pace, visit art galleries, or simply enjoy the serenity. Optional activities include a sunset cruise, scenic helicopter flight, or a visit to the Larry Norton and Stone Dynamics Galleries, just a short walk away.

Today you'll say goodbye to the thunder of Victoria Falls and transfer to Victoria Falls Airport for your scheduled flight to Nairobi, Kenya via Kenya Airways. After clearing immigration at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, you’ll be met by our VIP meet-and-greet service who will fast-track you through customs and escort you to a waiting vehicle.

Your base for the next two nights is Hemingways Nairobi, a refined boutique hotel in the leafy suburb of Karen. With views of the Ngong Hills, spacious suites, and an excellent brasserie, it’s the perfect setting to pause, reset, and enjoy a gentler pace after your time in the bush.

This stop is also a chance to explore the cultural side of Kenya. Evelyn — a trained historian and passionate educator — is particularly in her element here. From the Karen Blixen Museum to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust elephant orphanage, there are optional outings that offer depth, meaning, and humanity.

This morning, you transfer to Wilson Airport and board your scheduled Safarilink flight to the Maasai Mara. You’ll land at Ol Kiombo Airstrip, where your guide will meet you for the game-drive transfer to Mara Expedition Camp — a secluded, classic safari retreat hidden beneath ebony trees near the Ntiakitiak River.

This part of the journey brings you into the heart of the Greater Mara ecosystem — home to the Great Migration and some of the highest densities of big cats in Africa. From here, you have access to both the Mara North Conservancy and the Maasai Mara National Reserve, offering immense variety and flexibility in wildlife viewing.

Mara Expedition Camp is intimate and character-filled, with six explorer-style tents, brass safari showers, and lantern-lit evenings. Evelyn’s depth of knowledge — both ecological and historical — enriches every sighting and every conversation.

This is your chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature and with yourself.

A short road transfer today takes you from Mara Expedition Camp to its sister property — the exceptional Mara Plains Camp, located in the private Olare Motorogi Conservancy. This final stop is a culmination of the journey: refined, wild, deeply immersive, and quietly luxurious.

Mara Plains is one of just three Relais & Châteaux properties in Kenya and offers access to over 40,000 hectares of private conservancy land and the adjacent Maasai Mara Reserve. Wildlife densities here are among the highest in Africa — and the exclusivity of the conservancy ensures that your sightings are often private, unhurried, and unforgettable.

Each guest suite is thoughtfully designed with deep canvas canopies, Lamu wood doors, copper bathtubs, and expansive views. At night, Maasai warriors escort you safely to and from your suite — the soundtrack of the wild never far off.

As host, Evelyn will be available to share reflections, facilitate meaningful discussions, or simply ensure everything runs smoothly as your journey draws toward its final days.

After a final morning waking to the sounds of the Mara, you’ll enjoy breakfast at Mara Plains Camp before your scheduled light aircraft flight back to Wilson Airport in Nairobi.

Upon arrival, you’ll be met once again by our VIP meet-and-assist team, who will escort you to your private vehicle for the transfer to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Fast-track services are included for immigration and customs, helping you navigate the airport comfortably and efficiently.

While the safari ends today, we hope the friendships formed, memories made, and stories shared stay with you long after wheels-up.
