Return to camp as the sun begins to set in time for sundowner around the fire and a three-course dinner with a chilled glass of wine.
Wake up to the smell of a fresh cup of coffee at dawn and head out to the park's vast plains and woodlands. Return to the camp for breakfast by mid-morning. Spend the rest of your morning in the library or spot games from your private deck. In the afternoon, you can relax or go back to the park's open plains on foot, accompanied by a guide and armed scout, for a chance to discover smaller inhabitants. Walking on safari is a one-of-a-kind experience that brings you closer to the animals. The cool temperature of the early evening leads you to the final game drive of the day. Arrive back in camp on time to enjoy evening cocktails before dinner is served.
