Chad Safaris

Unlike some other African safari destinations, Chad remains relatively untouched. The wild experiences this remote destination offers are unparalleled. Venturing into the rugged and raw wilderness of Zakouma National Park is truly unique and regarded as one of Africa’s best kept secrets. This park had over 4,000 elephants in 2002, but years of intensive poaching reduced that number to 450 by 2010. This was the year that Zakouma was taken over by the NGO African Parks, and with the implementation of increased security measures, specialist ranger training, satellite collaring of wildlife and community outreach events, the park's fortunes have taken a decided turn for the better.
