A safari in search of the Big Five
Learn to observe the savannah.
Learn to observe the savannah.
A elephant behind the herbs, a silence before the movement: a safari is not just to catch five animals. The pleasure is also to understand the environment with a guide.
Where can you enjoy this experience?
South Africa, Tanzania or Kenya according to the type of safari, landscapes, rhythm and reservations studied.
Three ways into the experience.
Change your perspective
Pay attention to traces, birds and relationships between species.
Choose your overnight experience
The position of the lodge or camp affects the trails.
Embrace the unexpected
The absence of a species does not take anything back to a nice day of safari.
A safari that teaches you to see beyond five species
Lion, leopard, elephant, rhinoceros and buffle form the group of the Big Five, but they do not summarize the savannah or the pleasure of a safari. A giraffe in a clare, birds around a point of water or traces in dust also make up the day. A open look gives a wealth that doesn’t depend on a fully scattered list.
The frame is as much as the expected animal. South African Bush, the great Tanzanian landscapes and Kenyan savanas do not produce the same impressions. Before choosing a country, think about what you want to associate with the safari: stay in nature, discover a city or vary the regions. These links draw a personal journey.
A discovery in South Africa
The Kruger region can inspire a stay where several nights allow to deepen the same environment. The formulas of accommodation, travel and the functioning of the outputs vary depending on the location. They should be compared concrete, without assuming that one room in one safari area gives access to the same activities as another. The landscape and life of the stay are chosen together.
The project can consider a different face of South Africa if the duration and links allow it. A city or a landscape region brings an interesting counterpoint, but adding a flight or a long road must keep its reason to be. Safari does not need an excessively ambitious journey to become a complete journey.
Immersion in East Africa's savannahs
In Tanzania or Kenya, a approach focused on a few sectors gives a great place to observation days. The contrast of landscapes renews the discoveries, but every park change involves a transfer. Choose a clear conductor: a first meeting with the savannah, a photographic stay or several nights of nature.
Comfort is played in different details of a urban hotel: time of the first departure, temperature on board, dust and the possibility of placing between the departure. A pleasant journey leaves everyone the time to appreciate this pace. It is not necessary to stay out of the morning to the evening to consider the day as successful.
An early start by choice
The timetables influence sleep and meals. Say if you like to leave early or if you prefer to change active days and other lighter.
The pleasure of overnight stays
A lodge or a tent can become part of the memory. Ask for the necessary equipment, environment and travel, rather than choosing on the only photographed room.
Exploring with children
The age and organization of the activities depends on the place. A family project is thought for real participants, without assuming that all outlets are automatically suitable for everyone.
The presence of a species in a park does not mean that you will observe it. The five animals are not all as easy to meet and the conditions change. The quality of the trip is based on the attention of the guide, the time left in the middle and the days whose interest already exists without spectacular observation.
The dream deserves thoughtful preparation.
These signs serve to build the stay. The durations are work tracks, not packages marketed.
When to go?
The season affects vegetation, temperatures and movements. The best choice depends on your country and your project, without a single calendar for all of Africa.
To whom is this experience addressed?
Couples, friends or families according to the conditions of reception and the age admitted by the activities chosen.
What physical level to expect?
Trails and long seating periods require precise the comfort expected. A walk accompanied is another practice, with its own conditions.
What equipment to prepare?
Clothes suited for cold morning and hot hours, twins, hat and dust protection.
How many days to predict?
A base of several nights in the same sector leaves time to observe. The full duration of the trip is adapted to flights and extensions.
What precautions should we know?
Free and ungaranted meetings. Stay in the permitted areas, follow the guide and refuse any forced interaction or feeding. The conditions for children are to be checked.
Turn that inspiration into a well-balanced journey.
Compare the trail time, the type of vehicle, the number of participants and the operation of the outputs. A reserve name does not describe the experience alone.
What we will consider together
The good safari corresponds to your rhythm and curiosity. We prefer a readable program rather than a promise of systematically seeing the five species.
What can you combine this experience with?
A urban stage, a vineyard or coastal region depending on the country and time available.
