Let the spirit of Africa capture you...

THIS IS WHAT CAPTURE AFRICA IS ALL ABOUT. DRIFTING BACK IN TIME TO OUR ANCIENT ROOTS, A STRANGE, YET FAMILIAR EXCITEMENT ENVELOPES YOU AS YOU INCH CLOSER TO THE ADVENTURE!

“Well it’s pretty much impossible to express just how much we have loved our Capture Africa experience. Our expectations were Way exceeded in every respect!” Debbie & David Heywood (UK)

Capture Africa was founded in 1997 by the dynamic duo, Brian & Hildrene Gibson. They have been constantly improving and nurturing the Capture Africa safari product since then and attention to detail is obvious. The quality, comfort levels and style achieved while still camping, far exceed the expectations. Based in Maun, Botswana, the Okavango Delta is a fond “playground” for the Capture Africa teams. Sharing this and other wilderness destinations with guests from around the world is a passion of the Gibson’s.

Mobile safari is all about moving. This allows us to be in areas during the ever-changing seasons when wildlife viewing is at its best! This, complimented by the fact that you are accompanied by a specialist professional guide, will result in that safari of a lifetime!
Capture Africa is a long-standing member of both “Hospitality & Tourism Association” and “Botswana Guides Association”. These associations provide its members with private sites within the Botswana National Parks and Game reserves. And private wild camping remains an experience second to none!
