By midmorning the landscape opens into broad savanna where distant termite mounds and baobabs puncture the skyline and elephants move with the slow authority of old rulers.

Many operators list wheelchair-accessible transport and surfaces and can accommodate limited mobility, but routes and vehicles are rugged—confirm specific accessibility needs in advance.
