African Bush Safaris has released details of its small group Super Sensory Safari in Zimbabwe scheduled for June 2018. The “deeply immersive” six-night safari explores the Mana Pools National Park and incorporates activities designed to stimulate the senses, while providing a meaningful connection with the environment, the living and natural world.
The company said unlike typical African safaris, the itinerary isn’t limited to sitting in a vehicle on a game drive to have animal encounter. It provides opportunities to get out, walk, explore and engage with mother nature on a much deeper level.
Specialist guides takes guests on walking safaris focused on smell and touch, while super sensitive microphones are used to pick up sounds such as the songs of elephants, hyenas, lions, birds, frogs and insects.
“A lot of our guests living in big cities are not really used to the sounds, the smells and the sights of the bush. It’s taking the safari experience to the next level,” Sales Manager Shaun Stanley said.
Stanley said the Super Sensory Safari was aimed at travellers who had already been on an African safari, and were keen to try something unique and different. “But saying that, we have had guests on a previous trip who had not been on safari before but were completely blown away by the whole experience,” he said.
The itinerary is based on stays at two of African Bush Camps’ properties — Kanga Camp and Zambezi Expeditions. The Super Sensory Safari departs 09-15 April and 08-14 Jun 2018 based on a minimum of two and a maximum of 12 guests, priced at US$3,987ppts.
