Bush Survival Skills

Bush survival techniques, approaching Africa’s Big 5, and bush driving skills… all rolled into one!

Information

Think you can cut it out there in the bush? After this course you will be 100% ready to travel out on your own and successfully survive in the bush – by spending three days learning tracking, navigation, and safety skills.

Experience an adrenaline rush and confidence learning how to approach and interact safely with the apex predators of Africa. Technique, skill, and patience are key in coming face to face with lions, buffalo and other incredible African species.

4×4 driving is not as easy as it looks! A lot goes into safely navigating in and out of treacherous terrain. This part of the course will outline the basics of driving in the bush by going out there and actually experiencing it.
