  • Isle of Purbeck - The Safari will head out exploring the best of the Isle of Purbeck has to offer in our amazing Land Rover Defender. With air conditioning and leather seats, this will be a comfortable and careful safari, exploring the area in style. Our most popular safari, starts and ends in Swanage, travelling along country roads, off-road byways and permitted landowners farm tracks. This amazing safari heads high above Corfe Castle, then on to Heaven’s Gate with the most spectacular views of Poole Harbour in the East and Portland to the West, then through the Lulworth Ranges, lost village of Tyneham and the famous Durdle Door. Alternative pick up and drop off locations upon request. Refreshments and home-made cake is provided on this safari - Corfe Castle - In our customised Land Rover Defender 110, the safari will head over the hills high above Corfe Castle with spectacular views of Purbeck and beyond. Safari guide will drive off-road at a comfortable pace to enjoy the views. A stop at the top of the hill is a must. A stop in the village an option for travelers. - South West Coast Path - Heaven’s Gate at Kimmeridge Bay - Safari guide will again head off road and take a long narrow path to the top of Heaven’s Gate and along the cliff path. The view is probably the best in Dorset and not accessible without Dorset Safari’s trusty Land Rover Defender. We’ll stop for a stretch of legs and a nice tea / coffee and home made cake! - Tyneham Village and Flower’s Barrow Walk - With your safari guide, explore the lost village of Tyneham, the picturesque village left abandoned during WW2. Learn about how the locals had to leave their homes, which was then used in the war effort as a military training area. To this day, Tyneham is only open seasonally. An option for an alternative stop will be made if the village is closed. - Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door - Our final stop is to the iconic Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove, both fully deserving of their fabulous reputation and must see destinations. Time available for you to head down to the Man-O-War Beach or stretch your legs taking the Jurassic Coast walk to Lulworth Cove for pick up. This truly is a fantastic end to the day before heading back to Swanage.

A Memory Making Trip - Highly recommended - Just Perfect - This is just a wonderful experience, if you want to see the views that you can only access on foot but not do not want to do the walking then this is the activity for you. This was a trip for my sisters 60th birthday and what a fun trip it was making the most amazing memories wih our friends. I pre warned Mark that it would be 5 chatty middle aged ladies in advance so he knew what to expect. From the time we met Mark he was just the best host and adapted the trip to suit our needs. The views from the purbeck hills were just amazing, we were also very lucky as we had a clear day. We had a lovely picnic stop at the forgotten village of Tyneham with Tea, Coffee and Prosecco provided for us to accompany the most delicious homemade cake Mark even managed to time it with the Steam Train travelling under the bridge whilst we were on it! We can't recommend this highly enough! You will not regret the adventure and experience. We talked abot how lovely it was for the rest of our weekend. Thankyou Dorset Safari

Tour around Swanage - Mark put together a tour based purely on our wishes. The jeep tour took us off-road through beautiful landscapes. We visited many beautiful photo points. Mark informed us about historical, scenic and cultural details. We are thrilled and can only recommend the tours.

Great day out for anyone, but families of all ages too - The afternoon was terrific. From the homemade tea and cakes to the breadth of views we took in during an afternoon, it was the highlight of our trip to Dorset. Our group included a 5, 7, 13, 43, 77 and 78 year old family members and Mark made it work for everyone. He engaged us with local history, information, games for the girls and lots of stories for everyone. It was a really terrific afternoon. Mark was pro-active in communicating with us leading up to our trip and also helped us think about how to accommodate my father, who is in his late-70s and recovered from a stroke. It all worked very well and everyone on the trip got to experience something that wouldn’t have been possible on foot.

Not to be missed ! Excellent - Really good expérience. Mark drove us to some exceptional sites that we would never have found ourselves and his local knowledge and good humour gave us an interesting and very enjoyable afternoon. Thank you for the excellent home made cake !

Brilliant Afternoon Trip - We had a brilliant afternoon with Mark. His stories and fun facts on the area were great and even though we’re locals we learnt stuff and saw parts of Dorset and views we’d never seen before and would never have got to without the Land Rover! Mark was really flexible on what we wanted to see and great company. He also thought about where he could make the visit special for photo spots, gorgeous homemade cake midway through the trip and even a glass of fizz at the end to mark a special occasion. We’d all thoroughly recommend Dorset Safaris – to locals or visitors alike – make sure you book!

Highly Recommended. - The Jeep Safari is highly recommended. There were four of us (including two teenagers) and we all had a lot of fun. Mark tailored the tour exactly to our wishes. A fantastic trip that we will remember for a long time. A tour through the breathtakingly beautiful landscape, stops with entertaining background information, lots of action and delicious home-made cakes. The four hours flew by. Thank you very much.

Awesome 4x4 Safari! Must do in Dorset! - Awesome safari! Mark knows how to give you an incredible day out. His Land Rover took us up on top of the beautiful Dorset Hills. We stopped at a cool English Pub for lunch. We even had a cider tasting masterclass at a local cider farm! Our guide was funny and entertaining, plus knew loads of cool stories and history about the area. Must come back and take another safari with Mark next time we’re over to the UK. 10/10
