The cool morning air enhances the excitement as guests capture stunning photographs of the vibrant landscape and its inhabitants.

The afternoon drive resumes as temperatures cool down. This is prime time for witnessing dramatic river crossings, where massive herds attempt to navigate treacherous waters filled with crocodiles.
