More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A damp morning light filters through mopane and acacia as your small group steps off the vehicle and onto the park’s compact trails. The air smells of sun-warmed dust and wet grass; rangers stand spaced like sentries, radios clipped and eyes scanning for the slow silhouettes of white rhinos. This walking safari places you within the living rhythms of the landscape—cautious, immediate, and quiet enough to hear a distant bird call or a rhino’s rumble.
