More About African Bush Camps

The founder, Beks Ndlovu started his journey as a professional safari guide working for safari companies in Zimbabwe. However, he felt that the safaris being offered were sometimes too structured and stiff, not giving you the flexibility to venture out and explore the wonders of the African wilderness in different ways.

He branched off to start his own camp, a place where guides could be creative and imaginative. Somalisa Camp, the now award-winning camp, was born from this dream. African Bush Camps, aims to be safari experts in Zimbabwe, Botswana and Zambia.

The safari bug bit Beks and he decided this vision was bigger than just him, he gathered people with the same values to create something incredible. What started as a humble dream to bring guides together to educate guests about Africa, has become a fully oiled machine with the aim of exploring and conserving Africa.
