From January to April, the plains come alive as wildebeest, zebras, and Thomson's gazelles give birth to their young. This abundance of prey attracts large predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas, which follow the migrations across the park. In addition to these iconic species, smaller animals like rock hyraxes, bat-eared foxes, mongooses, honey badgers, jackals, monkeys, baboons, and African hares thrive in the ecosystem. Bird enthusiasts will also delight in spotting some of the over 500 bird species found in the area.

After an exciting day of game drives, you will return to camp to enjoy a delicious dinner and relax for the night.
