safari expeditions

Wildlife viewing journeys

Safari expeditions are organized journeys into wilderness areas, typically in Africa, for observing or hunting wildlife.

The term combines safari—Swahili for "journey"—with expedition's sense of a planned venture.

Modern usage emphasizes wildlife viewing and photography rather than hunting: We booked a safari expedition to see the Big Five.

The phrase often suggests multi-day trips with guides, vehicles, and lodging in remote areas.
