This afternoon you join your first safari in this Big 5 wildlife reserve. Every morning and evening, guests are taken on a game drive.
The night drives allow guests the opportunity to see the nocturnal animals not encountered during the day. Your chances of seeing leopard in particular are a lot higher at night and with a bit of luck you might even encounter the predators such as lion and leopard hunting. During the night drives, your tracker uses a powerful spotlight to search for nocturnal animals.
Meal times will be a highlight on your safari stay. Enjoy hearty brunches, al fresco lunches and social dinners with lovely cuisine. End your day with a drink around the camp fire under the African starlit sky.
Overnight at nThambo Tree Camp.
