See the Big Five on Safari
A Big Five Safari offers the opportunity to witness Africa’s most iconic and sought-after wildlife species: the lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and buffalo. Known collectively as the Big Five, these animals earned their title not because of their size, but due to the difficulty and danger early hunters faced in pursuing them on foot.
Today, the term represents the pinnacle of African wildlife encounters, with safari-goers flocking to reserves and national parks in hopes of spotting these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. Observing the Big Five on safari is both a thrilling and humbling experience, connecting travellers to Africa’s wild heart while supporting conservation efforts to protect these endangered species.
