Good morning Steve, you would be surprised, some tourists actually like roughing it in the bush. There is a certain appeal about camping in a tent, cooking over a fire and being at one with nature in a hot climate in a game reserve.

I realise it might not appeal to everyone but for some it’s an adventure and highly recommended. Because of health and safety, it’s common practice to pay for 2 armed rangers to watch the camp at night and 2 armed rangers to watch the tent’s during the day whilst on a game drive. The fees include food and water for the rangers. The rangers bring their own little hut made from corrugated tin. Their beds are hay, a water douser supplies the water.

I did invite someone from the club to join us on safari camping in a tent, but he decided it was not for him.

Such is life
