Safari during the green season offers many advantages to guests, including green season rates for all our camps and lodges.

Game drives are incredibly rewarding, thanks to fewer vehicles and less crowds, allowing guests to enjoy special wildlife sightings and see animals in their natural behaviour amidst the wide-open wilderness. The landscape becomes even more theatrical if rains have recently fallen, thanks to dramatic skies and lush, blooming vegetation, creating a beautiful contrast. The low season is also when many animals and birds give birth to their young and guests can often expect to see new-born gazelle, zebra and giraffe taking their first steps of life. Some will also bear witness to an actual birth on the African savannah. Certain elusive animals are easier to spot during this time, for example the elegant cheetah is most active during this period. The low season is also a fantastic time for bird lovers, allowing them to observe their unique characteristics, including nest building techniques and mating habits.
