Botswana Big Cats Trip – May 2026
Join Wild Cat Conservation Centre founder, Ben Britton, on the African savanna and immerse yourself in the heart of big cat country. With a career spanning two decades working with creatures big and small, exploring the world with National Geographic, and conserving wild cats, Ben is an expert on all thing’s cats.
Starting at the beautiful Mohave Bush Camp in the Northern Tuli Game Reserve, you will spend 3 days with Ben learning about wildlife conservation in Africa. You will be on foot, immersed in the African wilderness, in the heart of big cat territory!
Whether it be carrying out field observations at a Spotted Hyena den, tracking animals on foot, setting up trail cameras or spending the late afternoon searching for the elusive leopard or caracal, this trip has a little bit of everything!
You’ll then transfer to Mashatu Game Reserve, widely regarded as one of the best locations in Africa to view big cats with twice daily game drives to view these amazing cats up close! Ben has been visiting and working at Mashatu for over 15 years and calls it his second home. He will share his experiences with the group and provide firsthand insights to the challenges in conserving wild cats in Botswana.
Mashatu is also home to elephants, giraffes, zebra and much, much more! A perfect introduction to life in one of Botswana’s most unique locations.
The tour is capped at only 8 guests, ensuring a uniquely intimate experience. Don’t miss out, secure your spot today!
Cheetah and Wildlife Conservation Trip – September 2026
Ben will lead a small group of 8 guests to visit Edie our rewilded cheetah at Mziki Private Game Reserve in South Africa before travelling to Phinda Private Game Reserve to learn more about cheetah conservation and the work being done by WCCC and our conservation partners to prevent the extinction of this beautiful cat.
These hosted trips allow the opportunity for our supporters to spend quality time with our directors learning about wild cat conservation whilst at the same time visiting and viewing wild cats in their natural habitat, knowing that monies raised from these trips goes directly to conserving wild cats!
Learn first-hand the work involved in rewilding cheetah and take part in other wildlife conservation projects including white rhino and pangolin.
This trip is not to missed, guests being able to view Edie, our cub born here at the centre now living as a wild cheetah in Africa! A conservation success story!
Both tours are capped at only 8 guests, ensuring a uniquely intimate experience. Don’t miss out, secure your spot today!
