April
27, 2012 - Mombo Camp, rated the #1 Luxury Safari camp in Botswana and owned
by Wilderness Safaris, just built a new bridge leading in to Mombo and have
named it the “Tully Tully Bridge”
after Mary Jean and Brad Tully for their love and support of Wilderness and
their ongoing beliefs in Conservation, Preservation and Sustainability.
The Tullys
have supported Wilderness with their "Children of the Wilderness" programs
as well as other endeavors.
Mary Jean Tully said, "This will be our true legacy, as Mombo means so much
to both Brad and I."
Due to its
location on Chiefs Island in the Okavango Delta, Mombo is rated as
“The best for game viewing in
Africa.” Being at Mombo is like being in a wildlife documentary. The
setting is ideal and the guides are some of the most experienced in the
industry. Mombo is the flagship property of the Luxury safari operator.
Several Award winning Documentaries have been filmed at Mombo Camp. Mombo is
Wildernesses most famous property and has won awards from Conde Nast
Traveler and Travel & Leisure to name just a few.
Wilderness
Safaris is a conservation organization and ecotourism company dedicated to
responsible tourism throughout the areas in which it operates in Africa.
Their goal is to share these wild areas with guests from all over the world,
while at the same time helping to ensure the future protection of Africa's
spectacular wildlife heritage and sharing the benefits of tourism with local
communities.
Established
in 1983, Wilderness Safaris operates camps and safaris in Botswana, Congo,
Kenya, Namibia, Malawi, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe and the Seychelles
and is run by a group of likeminded wildlife enthusiasts who came together
to build a successful safari business, delivering a unique experience for
guests, fair returns for shareholders and stakeholders, while ensuring that
Africa's pristine wilderness areas remain sustainably protected.
Wilderness
Safaris operates privately on over 3 million hectares (8 million acres) of
Africa's finest wildlife reserves in more than 70 lodges and camps. There is
no one style set in Wilderness camps; rather they celebrate the difference
and uniqueness of each area and its wildlife so that each group of camps has
its own identity, feel and character.
