"Mbugani" is a swahili word meaning Wilderness, and we are Wilderness Expedition Company.
We specifically design safaris that cater for individual groups and therefore don’t have set itineraries. While we organize all sorts of safaris, our other niche which fits with above but not exclusively, are safaris that have at least some element of walking or trekking. Walking in the bush provides a great complement to the amazingly close encounters one has on traditional vehicle game viewing drives.
We are committed to providing world-class experiences for sophisticated and discerning travelers, offering an unparalleled level of attention to detail so as to maintain the highest standards when planning and organizing safaris, while still delivering excellent value for money. We attach great importance to identifying guests’ specific interests and expectations, going way beyond the conventional and standardized fare on offer elsewhere. Our aim is to provide safaris that are educational, explorative, fun, insightful, and ultimately life enriching, with benefit not only for our guests but also for the places and people that we visit
Ours is to help you experience the East African wilderness at its best and in the most enjoyable and safe manner.
