Go on a bush walk!

19 September 2017

Bush walks take you on a really up close and personal adventure, to experience nature and wildlife first hand. Most resorts offer bush walks with experienced trackers and guides, who will make sure that you stay safe and get the most out of the experience.

Your ranger and tracker will brief you on how to behave, what not to do, so listen carefully. So why go on a walk when you can go on a game drive instead?
