Day 2

Morning game drive and afternoon boat cruise

Morning game drive and afternoon boat cruise

After having your coffee at 6:00 am, proceed for the game drive at 6:30 am. This is the best time to go for game drives because you have a better chance of seeing one of the Big Five, the lion, as they reside in this national park. You will most definitely see giraffes and elephants, among others. Back from the game drive, have a luxurious full breakfast and then relax by the swimming pool until lunch. After lunch, proceed to the boat cruise trip to the bottom of the falls where you will see humongous hippos, different bird species, and some of the 76 species of mammals that are found in this national park. The boat cruise usually takes up to 3 hours. The cruise will be concluded with a hike to the top of the falls. You will return to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.
