Founded by PJ and Barney Bestelink in 1986, this was the first riding
Safaris Company in Southern Africa. The focus is a journey through the
diverse landscape of the Okavango Delta and understanding of the
ecosystem in this truly incomparable area. In offering a riding safari
with OHS you are guaranteed a pristine wilderness with unique
landscapes.
The concept of riding this area is very special, as horses
wade through the shallow waters, swim through rivers, placing guests in
areas unspoilt by human footprint. On horseback the experience of
approaching wildlife and exploring the Delta places the rider at one
with nature. The interaction between wildlife and horses is a natural
relationship and every encounter is unique. Cantering through the
floodwaters alongside the elephant motion of a giraffe is an experience
that will never be forgotten.
Our specialised team of horses are classed
within the industry as the best safari horses in the world, care is
taken to match horse and rider, with top quality tack, excellent
standard of guiding, personal attention and high standards of
accommodation. We use 3 camps, Kujwana, luxury en-suite tents raised on
teak deckings under fabulous natural canopy, Mokolwane, 2 metre high
treehouses along the edge of the Matsibe River and Qwaapo Camp
overlooking a beautiful hippo lagoon.
The remote camps are accessed by
helicopter, based in private concession areas of over 2500 sq.
kilometres. Apart of the main attraction of exploring on horses, guests
will also experience the delta from mokoro, on foot and game drives with
night drives. We take a maximum of 8 guests on 5, 7 or 10 night safari
options and non-riders can be accommodated. This company is committed to
responsible tourism, staff development and the protection of the
Okavango Delta.
