Full Game Drive and photography

Have breakfast then set out for a full day photography and game viewing, This will introduce you to the intense beauty and drama that fills the park with predators stalking the herds of animals grazing, a theatre of life and death. Photographically it is very rewarding. Its flat and dusty plains and dry lake beds provide amazing backdrops for dramatic and evocative images, especially in certain remote areas of the park. In the early mornings and late afternoons the snowy peak of Mt Kilimanjaro may emerge from the clouds, and when a herd of Elephants appear in the distance it is one of the most iconic scenes in the entire African continent.
