Walking Safari

A walking safari is a type of safari which includes both game drives and walks in certain national parks. You will be exploring things that can only be seen by foot, during slow-paced, guided walks, accompanied by guides and an armed ranger.  It is an excellent break from game drives, which gives you the opportunity to stretch your legs while experiencing the sights, sounds and smells of nature, all of this while learning some fascinating facts about nature, birds, reptiles, insects and medicinal uses of local plants.
