Vegan Botswana Safaris

Vegan meals on a Botswana Safari

I  have been on Safari in Botswana and many other Africa safari destinations long before this current upsurge in popularity in plant based foods due to leading a vegetarian lifestyle for over 40 years and have had no problem obtaining the food I pre order.

In to day’s world with the growth of Vegan eating nearly all safari lodges have a vegan meal plan.

Possibly at some of the lodges that have not learnt how to accommodate fully for the vegan lifestyle the simpler the vegan meals choices become.

However simple does not mean without quality. Local African cuisine has many vegetables, grains, herbs that they combine to create varied delicious tasting meals which is part of the adventure of travel, experiencing how different cultures interpret vegan eating.

Of course if a Botswana safari lodge does not offer any vegan desserts after the dinner meal or lunch as well that is a sacrilege and a full blown crisis that we will have to deal with.

I am cheating a little with this image as its from a lodge in Kenya that does have 3 lodges/camps in Botswana so the expectation is that you will a receive similar quality vegan menu plan.

This only applies to some locations as  the quality of vegan menu offerings goes right up at most if not all Africa safari lodges and or camps.

As Ryan a client in December 2021 who climbed Mount Kilimanjaro on a vegan diet said” There was more quantity than I could eat and the quality was perfect for what I needed on the climb”

Here are some tour options which any of them can be converted into a vegan trip and we can use different lodging to accommodate varying trip budgets see

One of the most popular things about Duba Plains (besides the lions) is the Interactive Kitchen where guests can pull up a barstool, to watch and participate with our chefs as they prepare meals, with our emphasis on creating delicious and healthy new vegan and plant-based inspired cuisine

 

Vegan safari tents

Here is a sample of what a 4 Night vegan tented safari looks like. However time of year of travel will dictate adding in different activities to enhance the experience.

Some tips for your Vegan Safari in Botswana.

1) You don’t need supplement’s while or because you are on a safari( unless you regularly take them) The meals are quite nutritious.

I have been living this lifestyle for 46 years and have been given veg/vegan and raw food meals in safari lodges long before this current upsurge in vegan popularity. The quality of the food and service for the most part will surprise you.

2) All the safari game drive vehicles and lodges/camps will have bottled water.

3) Some folks ask should we bring snacks. If you want to…or be open to experience what you will be given. You are in a different part of the world and each location has local vegan options.

4) No lodge will charged you a surcharge for a vegan meal and if they do consider another lodge.

Possibly for vegan wine you maybe charged a small surcharge, however this needs to be preordered which we will do for you. However no lodging establishment will charge you for a vegan meal plan.

If I had to come across a lodge that charged a surcharge for a vegan meal I would talk to the manger or owners and give them you know what of my mind, and zero business.

5) Botswana Safari Camps and lodges are remote locations…they need the guest to be happy so they the guests will spread the word about there services.

All the managers/chefs are for the most part are very open to talk especially on the day of your arrival to briefly reconfirm that they have the initial request for vegan meals from the booking agent or there office. Easy done.

In many cases most hotels/safari lodges or camps simply cater for the vegan traveler. Catering is a very impersonal service..one does the least to make it look like the most.

Accommodating the vegan traveler is a different thing…here the vegan traveler wishes or needs are treated just like any other traveler.

This is what we strive to achieve with our custom design vegan Botswana safari’s and tour services…that the vegan traveler is given the attention they deserve.
