Their movement pattern is highly weather-dependent and dynamic. However, you can witness this natural wildlife wonder with planning and a little luck. Additionally, this safari covers other national parks where you can witness resident games. Furthermore, the tour is available throughout the year, but opting for it in the right season will awaken you. To provide you with an unforgettable experience, this safari can be done only as a private safari. The choice of accommodation available is luxury-grade tented camps and lodges.
