Tracking wildlife on foot and quietly closing in on the Big Five is one of those unforgettable experiences that will stay with you long after your safari.
In the valleys, mopane thickets offer clues to underground water and mark the course of dry riverbeds. Move quietly through these varied habitats with your guide, and you'll soon be struck by the sheer volume and variety of life this harsh land supports.
Patience and perseverance pay off in this environment — keep your eyes open and learn to read the signs of the bush. Listen for the shrill call of a snake eagle, watch scorpions dart between rock crevices, and if you're lucky, you may find yourself in close encounter with the largest land mammal on the planet, the elephant.
