African Safari
Boutique safaris, camping safaris and African safari experiences
Boutique african safari experiences in Zimbabwe
Welcome to Umdingi Safaris, where your dream is our reality. We specialise in authentic safari experiences that go beyond your average commercial holiday. We’re passionate about getting up close and personal with the beautiful African wilderness to truly experience everything that Zimbabwe has to offer through our camping safari packages.
Camping Safaris
You won’t find anything like our boutique safaris. Our authentic camping safaris truly are a one-in-a-lifetime experience. You’ll sleep under the stars in our camping accommodation, eat dinner by a roaring fire, and drift off to sleep listening to the call of the wild – before waking up to a hot shower and freshly prepared breakfast. You’ll come closer to nature than ever before, and truly experience the romance the African wilderness has to offer.
Boutique safaris tailored to you
At Umdingi, we design every single trip around the individual needs of our adventurers. So, if you don’t see your dream safari experience here, please get in touch with us. We’ll get to know you and create a boutique safari experience.
Let us ask you some questions
Have you always wanted to see the majestic lion, the triumphant elephant or the gracious African giraffe up close in their natural splendour?
Do you want to adventure off the beaten path?
Are you ready to switch off from daily life, ignore the emails and messages and really immerse yourself in the African wilderness?
Are you ready to answer the call of the wild?
Meet your expert African safari guide
We only take small groups of travellers on each of our safari trips. So, you’ll have complete access to your expert African safari guide – in most cases, the owner of Umdingi himself, Clint.
Zimbabwe local guide:
Clint is a Zimbabwe local who grew up adventuring in the African wilderness. And he’s been running safaris and other trips around Africa for over a decade. He’s also a renowned host – bringing luxury personal touches to every trip in order to make sure his guests feel at home and welcome.
You’ll be able to ask unlimited questions to your African safari guide. He’ll be able to tell you about the flora and fauna, the animal life, and even the local Zimbabweans.

Some things to note before you go on a safari
Your safety is our absolute priority. So, you will be fully briefed on how to keep yourself and others safe when you arrive.
Make sure to bring plenty of skin-cover – sunhats, long sleeves, sarongs etc. But bear in mind it will be very hot, so loose, flowing fabrics like cotton.
Bring a camera if you’d like, but please no flash.
Don’t wear any bright colours – stick to natural shades of brown, khaki, tan, grey and olive green.
When booking your African safari experience, you’ll video chat with Umdingi owner, Clint who will provide you with full information about how to prepare for your holiday.
We know you’ll have an idea of the animals you’d like to see in the wild. And whilst we do everything in our power to help you witness the animals you’ve dreamed about your whole life, this often comes down to luck and a lot of patience.
