]]>King of the jungle and a symbol of Africa’s wilderness, the lion is a must-see on any safari. Witnessing a pride lounging in the golden savanna or stalking prey across the grasslands is an experience that will leave you awestruck.
African elephants are the largest land animals on the planet. Encountering a herd of these magnificent creatures browsing or bathing in a watering hole is a humbling sight.
The African buffalo is a formidable grazer, often seen in large herds. Don’t be fooled by their grazing demeanor. These powerful animals are surprisingly agile and have a reputation for fierce defense.
Leopards are the most secretive of the big cats, perfectly adapted for camouflage. Spotting one perched on a branch or stalking prey in the tall grass is a true safari highlight.
Seeing a rhinoceros with its thick hide and prehistoric appearance is like stepping back in time. South Africa is home to both white and black rhinoceros, both critically endangered but making a comeback thanks to conservation efforts.

]]>To find the perfect destination for your family, think about the activities you and your kids enjoy. Instead of trying to visit multiple countries at once, plan your adventure around one country.
When going on a safari with kids, it’s essential to get a private guide. It will allow the adults to get a break and your kids can connect with the staff. If you can’t afford a private guide, you can rent a private vehicle, which will still be fun for the entire family and will give you more flexibility.
Tell your kids where you’ll be staying, the animals you’ll see, the activities you have planned, and how you’re going to travel. Make sure your kids feel part of the planning process.

]]>Planning an African safari adventure does require some preparation, however. Here are some things that you should do to ensure that youâre ready before going.
The tropical, foreign diseases which are present in most African countries are something that people should be vaccinated for before traveling. Check with your doctor and country recommendations, but youâll want to at least get vaccinated against diseases like yellow fever.Â
Safaris are always done with a guide or guide group in Africa, and before you spend thousands on making this journey, do your best to ensure that the people youâll be going with know what theyâre doing and what theyâre talking about. Check reviews online thoroughly to go with the peace of mind that youâll be led by experts.
Many popular safari destination countries require entry visas for tourists who will be traveling there. Check visa requirements for citizens of your country long before going, and be sure to apply for whatever sort of documentation youâll need far in advance.

]]>Home of the world’s two last northern white rhinos and the largest black rhino sanctuary in East Africa, Ol Pejeta, is a place worth checking out. They’re currently offering daily programs which include safari drives, the morning routines of the northern white rhinos, walking with the anti-poaching tracker dogs, and participating in a workout with the armed rangers.
WildEarth does a daily live broadcast from this reserve located in Sabi Sands, South Africa. Sit back and enjoy the safari rides from the comfort of your own couch and you’ll see lions, wild dogs, elephants, and leopards.
The live webcam, which broadcasts 24 hours a day, overlooks the waterhole at Tau Game Lodge in South Africa’s Madikwe Game Reserve. You’ll see tons of wildlife including hyena, rhinos, and elephants.
Overlooking the Chobe River, check out the water birds, giraffes, and buffalo crossing over the river. There are two live webcams, so you won’t miss anything.
Tandu Tula, located in the Timbavati Private Game Reserve, is a luxury camp and they’re posting drives on their YouTube channel a couple of times a week. So far, the episodes have shown a leopard with her cubs, a pangolin, rhinos, and elephants.
