A Typical Day on Safari
Posted on March 1, 2014 at 7:57 am
Days begin early on safari because this is the best time to see wildlife. The animals rise early with the sun and the predators begin prowling for their breakfast. You’ll be woken up with a tray of hot tea or coffee (or whatever you like to drink in the mornings!) to begin the morning with, before getting dressed and jumping into you vehicle with your knowledgeable guide. Together you’ll watch the events of the bush unfold.
Breakfast is most likely done and dusted for the animals by the time you begin to feel hungry. Whenever you’re ready your guide will find the perfect spot to stop off for a tasty bush breakfast. Think more steaming hot drinks, breakfast sandwiches, cool juices, cereals, fresh fruits and yoghurts. You’ll refuel before heading back out to see what else you can find.
After your morning drive you can relax at your camp doing whatever you wish. Perhaps you’d like to take a quick dip in the pool? Relax in your room with a book? Learn more about Africa’s fauna and flora in the camp’s library? The choice is yours. Once you’re feeling rested you can begin your afternoon activity. On a tailor made safari you’re able to choose exactly what you’d like to do. You could go out for an afternoon drive, take a guided bush walk, go canoeing, or many various other activities depending on where you are.
You’ll be met back at the camp by friendly staff who have a cool facecloth and a refreshing juice ready and waiting for you. As night falls you’ll surround the campfire with your fellow guests, sipping on your favourite drink and discussing what you’ve seen that day. Together you’ll enjoy a scrumptious three course dinner under the stars before retreating back to your tent for a good night’s sleep before your next day of safari adventures.
