Walking safari amongst the wildlife

It’s best to allow around 2 to 3 hours for the walking safari if you want to walk at a leisurely pace and take plenty of time to watch the animals. Exactly how long you’ll be out and about depends on the route you choose and how much time you spend with the various animals.

What’s more, you don’t have to complete the walking safari in one go. You can combine different types of safari. For example, walk through part of the park, then hop on the boat and explore another section from the water, or continue with the car safari.
