After your sunset game drive you will be taken back to camp and that will be the end of your day. One of the main attractions of camping in Hwange is the chance to witness Africa's iconic wildlife up close. The park is known for its large populations of elephants, lions, and other big game animals, providing visitors with unforgettable safari experiences. Camping allows guests to truly connect with nature and experience the sights and sounds of the African bush in a way that is not possible from a traditional lodge or hotel.

Early morning walking safaris in Hwange National Park offer a unique opportunity for you to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of Zimbabwe's largest game reserve. As the sun rises over the savannah, you are led by experienced guides through diverse habitats, encountering a wide array of wildlife along the way.

This immersive experience allows for a closer connection with nature than traditional game drives, as you feel the crunch of dry grass beneath your feet and hear the calls of birds overhead. The thrill of walking among elephants, giraffes, and other iconic African animals is unparalleled, providing a sense of adventure and excitement unlike any other.

After that you will go back to camp for breakfast and freshening up. You are going to have a full day game drive and break for lunch at 1300hrs and continue with your game drive. Until around 1800hrs and then you will return to camp for dinner, and your day ends here.

Early morning game drives are a common activity for wildlife enthusiasts and tourists on safari.

These majestic creatures are often elusive during the day but can be more active in the early hours of the morning.

When you you arrive in Victoria Falls you will be given time to rest and freshen up before being picked up for the legendary BOMA dinner and traditional drumshow. One of the highlights of the Boma dinner is the traditional drum show, where skilled musicians showcase their talents on various types of drums.
