Safari

Safaris take place at the coolest times of the day which is when the animals are at their most active, both early in the morning and late in the afternoon.

The morning game drive begins with a wake up call with tea and coffee followed by breakfast either at the camp or packed for your drive. The safari will end at around mid morning, giving you plenty of time to freshen up before lunch.

After lunch and a relaxing afternoon, it will be time for the evening drive, complete with sundowners in the bush. This is then followed by a delicious dinner under the stars.
