Ride Botswana with David Foot Safaris

Ride Botswana with David Foot Safaris Ride Botswana with David Foot Safaris The Kalahari, the Okavango, the Makgadikgadi. This is a land of true wilderness.

Botswana is a land overflowing with places that evoke the wild spirit of Africa. It is a land where the wildlife still roams freely over vast distances. And it is a land still home to the original inhabitants of the continent – the San Bushmen. We, David and Robyn Foot, invite you to join us on safari and share our passion for its wildlife, its pristine wilderness and its ancient people. Our first

love is to explore the remote areas of the country on horseback. We have three of our own exclusive rides – the Okavango Delta Ride, the Makgadikgadi Pans Ride and the Thamalakane River Ride, and are happy to organise a horse safari through the islands and waterways of the Okavango Delta or the starkly beautiful Kalahari. Our safaris are guided by David who has over 25 years of experience leading safaris throughout southern and central Africa. And if horses are not your thing, then he is just as happy to show you the country by vehicle or more especially on an adventurous foot safari or an adrenalin packed canoe safari along the Selinda Spillway.

The floodwaters have only just reached their peak, making the next three months a particularly spectacular time to experience the Delta on horseback. There’s also still a wonderful opportunity to join us last-minute for an unforgettable time riding through the flooded wilderness. 🌱💦🐎

A huge thank you to for sending us such a wonderful group of guests. From watching herds of elephants drift through the floodplains to cooling off in Delta waters with the horses - a fantastic week! 🐘🪷💙

Winter mornings on our Okavango Delta Mobile Ride 🌅☕️

Before the horses are saddled and the day’s adventure begins, there’s a quiet moment around the campfire. Crisp Delta air, hot campfire coffee, and the sounds of the dawn chorus drifting through camp as the sun rises over the floodplains. Few things feel quite as good.

Pedro was one of the greatest safari horses we’ve ever had. He galloped across the vast Makgadikgadi, swam the channels of the Okavango, and stood his ground against lions and elephants alike.

Bought as an internet bargain 15 years ago for just Rand 3000 😀, his safari career may have had a slightly shaky start - especially after throwing David off twice - but from then on he became an absolute legend. Brave, kind-hearted, full of character, and loved deeply by everyone who rode him.

We are heartbroken to have had to say goodbye to him, but so incredibly grateful for all the adventures, memories, and joy he gave us over the years.

Run free, Pedro - you’ve earned it old boy 🤍
