Overview
Accommodation throughout is comfortable lodges or permanent tented camps with private en-suite bathrooms, with a private or shared pop-up-roof 4x4 and driver-guide. This tier is the most requested tier for first-time safari travelers — a real step up in comfort over camping, without luxury-lodge pricing.
This particular departure is planned with families in mind: game drives are paced to avoid long unbroken driving stretches, and camps on this route are chosen for being comfortable with children rather than adults-only.
| Accommodation | Comfortable lodges or permanent tented camps with private en-suite bathrooms throughout the 3-day safari. Full board is included throughout, with lodge or camp dining rather than packed meals. The exact meal plan for each day is set out in the itinerary, with full board on all days spent inside the parks. |
