Mababe depression

Full days of exploration on your guided game drives, the daily rhythm usually involves a dawn game drive, mid-morning brunch, a period of rest during the midday heat, and an afternoon drive that often transitions into a night drive or sundowners.

Mababe is famous for massive buffalo herds, which in turn support high concentrations of lions. You can also expect to see elephants, leopards, and occasionally cheetahs. The reserve strictly limits the number of vehicles, ensuring your sightings are private. Explore the flora and fauna on guided game drives and foot with an expert guide. We continue to track nocturnal species that we might missed in Khwai, eg, leopards, lions, civets, and genets using spotlights after dark.
