Game drives are offered daily. Set in a private reserve, our guests have the chance to see some of Africa's most renowned plains animals up close, including hippos, zebras, buffalos, and giraffes.
Remember, each game drive is unique, and while the guides do their best to maximize sightings, nature is unpredictable. The beauty lies in embracing the unexpected and revelling in the sheer wonder of the African bush.
Refreshments and light snacks will be offered to our guests. Guests are reminded to bring their camera and something warm to wear.
Please enquire at reception for Game Drive times.
