Observing wildlife during a safari stay is a crucial element, and its timing is dictated by the natural rhythm of the animal kingdom. Predators tend to exhibit reduced activity during the daytime, leading to most hunting taking place in the early morning and late evening. Consequently, antelopes adjust their behavior, seeking shade during the day and becoming alert and active in the early mornings and late evenings to avoid predators.

In alignment with this natural schedule, our game drives are strategically planned to coincide with the periods when wildlife is most active – early morning and late afternoon. While this may necessitate early starts, guests quickly acclimate, and their internal clocks sync with the rhythms of Africa.

Typically lasting between three and four hours, our game drives include a sundowner stop at sunset and a morning coffee break. Evening game drives generally return to the lodge after dark, just in time for dinner. The timings of game drives are adapted seasonally to accommodate changes in the seasons.

For those seeking a more immersive experience, optional late-night game drives can be arranged with the lodge at an additional cost. Departing after dinner, these drives primarily focus on observing nocturnal species.
