The package includes a guide and an armed ranger who will help you traverse the landscape by trekking. Ultimately, visitors can identify different plant and animal species and experience nature through their senses within the ecosystem. 

Finally, a guided nature walk is central if you want to enrich your understanding of wildlife and nature.

4. Hot Air Balloon Safaris

Another opportunity to experience wildlife and landscape in a bird’s eye view is the use of hot air balloons.

5. Helicopter Tours

A helicopter is an asset when you opt for a flexible aerial view of nature. First, a helicopter can cover a wider area and is more convenient when you want to access locations suitable by foot or road drive. Some of the views you can explore using the helicopter are waterfalls, dense forests, and mountains.

6. Horseback Riding Safaris

It can be hard to ignore horse riding, especially if you prefer to view nature and wildlife unbothered by horse presence. With a horse, you can get closer to nature as you traverse the terrain. 

The secret, in this case, is to ride quietly as you get closer to the animals in the bush and take scenic photos. The offer includes using an experienced guide to offer directions on safe zones. Thankfully, any basic rider can participate in this safari.

What Kind of Wildlife Viewing Can One Expect?

1. Bird Watching

If you are a bird enthusiast, prioritize it and partner with Daylight Adventures and Safari to actualize your dream. Africa is home to thousands of bird species for your admiration. 

However, you will need the help of an expert ornithologist for an exciting experience. Such experts understand and guide you during specialized hours to watch varying breeds of birds. 

Again, the specialist will direct you to habitats such as forests where you can spot rare bird species.

2. Big Five 

The Big Five is a generalized term that refers to a certain group of mammals that many people enjoy viewing. These include elephants, rhinos, buffalo, lions, and leopards. Daylight Adventures & Safaris offers breathtaking views of these sought-after animals in their habitat, which is a highlight of any safari.

Visitors need a guide to locate vintage locations for viewing such wildlife. The guide will offer details on their behavioural patterns and conservation status to help them understand them better.

3. Seasonal Migrations

East Africa is synonymous with the Great Migration. It offers you a chance to explore seasonal migrations to wildebeests and zebras in search of better habitats. 

It can be exciting to watch millions of wildlife traverse the landscape to locate new grazing opportunities. As they migrate, they also attract predators, creating a dramatic spectacle.

4. Predators and Prey

Your safari is never fulfilling until you watch moments of how predators and prey interact. Witnessing how a lion hunts or takes stunning views of a sprinting cheetah could be fascinating.

Guides offer valuable input in your safari as they explain the behavioral activities of predators and prey in their dramatic scenes. Patience is key before witnessing such momentous occasions because some locations require luck. Generally, it can be a rewarding experience if you are lucky to spot a lion catching its prey. 

How to Prepare for Your Safari

Several vital steps come into focus as you prepare for a memorable safari.  Here is what you need to know:

1. Best Time for Visitation

Two factors dictate the best time to visit: the type of wildlife and the destination. For instance, if you are visiting East Africa, the right time to visit is during the dry season, where you will spot animals around waterways as they come to replenish. Such a season comes between June and October, coinciding with the Great Migration of Wildebeest and Zebra.

Similarly, the best time to watch bird species is during the wet season between November and May. Furthermore, calving is evident during this time, allowing you to see newborns.

When visiting southern Africa, which consists of Botswana, South Africa, Zambia, and Namibia, opt for a dry season (May to October) to see animals around rivers. The wet season, around November and May, is full of thunderstorms. However, the wildlife will be more dispersed, save for birds. Tourists tend to visit more during dry seasons; hence, bookings are high.

2. Visa and Vaccination Requirements

The initial step under this category is to research what it takes to obtain a visa from your destination country. The good news about Africa safaris is that many countries may offer you a visa online or upon arrival. 

We advise that you apply earlier if your destination country does not offer an e-visa service. Suppose you will visit many nations and get many visas in advance.

Besides, get a yellow fever vaccination if you come to or traverse a country vulnerable to yellow fever disease. Additionally, be current with routine vaccinations such as chicken pox, measles, and polio. Depending on your destination, consult with your health expert about other vaccinations, such as typhoid rabies.

Lastly, malaria medication is a must when participating in Africa’s safaris. Let your healthcare provider prescribe the right drug in that respect.  Use mosquito nets and insect repellant while on your safaris.

3. What to Pack

The first thing to consider when packing is clothing. Settle for neutral colors like green, khaki, and brown to complement the surroundings. 

Similarly, use layered clothing to respond to temperature changes. Choose comfortable footwear, whether for game walks or gaming around camps. Due to high UV light, a hat and sunglasses are necessary. Swimwear is critical for water-based activities.

Moreover, you will need to pack the binoculars for long-distance views. Carry a good camera with additional batteries to store your best safari moments. Your travel gear should include a first aid kit (prescription medication, pain relievers and ant-septic cream). Include a small backpack to hold your daily vitals during walks and drives.

Finally, include sunscreen to shield your skin against sunburn. Carry a reusable water bottle to keep hydrated.

3. Travel Insurance

Visitors need relevant travel insurance to handle medical emergencies, especially in remote conditions. Suppose your destination lacks nearby hospitals; travel insurance can handle any emergency, like evacuation to the adjacent healthcare facility.

Moreover, travel insurance covers unforeseen circumstances, such as trip interruption or cancellation due to bad weather or illness. 

Also, travel insurance is important as it covers loss or theft. Tourists may lose some essential travel gear, like cameras. A baggage delay could prompt your insurance to cover new purchases to support your safari. To learn more about what to pack check out our Safari Essentials page
