Safari Activities

A typical day on safari starts with a pre-dawn wake up with hot tea and biscuits. Activities are normally decided upon over dinner the previous evening. As the sun rises you will head out into the bush with your guide on a game drive, walk, or canoe / boat safari. Mid morning (between 9 AM - 11 AM), as wildlife activity begins to slow, you will return to camp for brunch.

The middle of the day is spent resting as wildlife activity is very limited. You may enjoy reading, take a nap, or take a cooler of drinks and view wildlife from a nearby hide (available at many lodges and camps). A late lunch is normally served around 1:00 PM.

Your afternoon activity starts with tea near 3:00 PM and extends past sunset with cold drinks served in the bush. At dark you will return to camp for a refreshing shower before drinks at the bar or around the fire. Dinner is normally served at 8:00 PM followed by dessert and after dinner drinks around the fire. Most guests retire around 10:00 PM.
