Africa Expeditions & Small Group Safaris
Chalo Africa’s expeditions are great for those looking to explore some of the remoter parts of Africa. We plan 3-4 expeditions on an annual basis to those parts of Africa which are either difficult to access or very expensive to do on a private basis. These are generally adventures to parts of Africa where the tourism infrastructure is still in its nascent years. On our expeditions, you will undoubtedly have amazing sightings in the company of kindred spirits. In the past, we have organised expeditions to Chad (Zakouma & Ennedi), Gabon, Ethiopia (Gambella National Park, Omo Tribes), and Zambia (Liuwa Plain).
Our small group safaris and tours, on the other hand, are usually to more popular destinations which works well if you are a solo traveller, or enjoy travelling in a group, or are on a limited budget. These small group tours can have multiple departure dates in the year and attract a diverse range of guests: from senior citizens to children to adventure lovers. You can find our small group tours to popular destinations such as Kenya and Tanzania (for the migration), Uganda (gorillas) or even Botswana. The type of accommodation used on such safaris is diverse: from mobile camping to lodges to luxury tented camps.

Chad has true otherworldly beauty: seas of orange-yellow sand, multi-coloured oases, and surreal rock formations. After all, most of the country is a part of the Sahara Desert. But Chad also has one of the world's largest single herd of elephants, about 130 lions, and over 10,000 Central African savanna buffalo, which range in colour from jet-black to orange.
KTP is truly wild: surreal semi-desert wilderness; red sand dunes; dry rivers that are said to flow once in a hundred years; and starry skies without light pollution. Kgalagadi means 'place of thirst'. It is a part of the Kalahari Desert in southern Africa. Much of it consists of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park (KTP), Africa's first Peace Park.
Gabon is still an enigma. A wild place of pristine old-growth rainforests where there are almost no human settlements and where wild animals live protected within the thick foliage nestled between the many rivers that traverse this west African country.
