Frequently Asked Questions

Is this trip too tiring?

It is a high-energy trip, but we use the most comfortable 4x4 vehicles and the best lodges to ensure you have plenty of time to recharge.

What is the best time for this?

June to September is ideal as it is the dry season for all three parks, making trekking and game viewing much easier.
