As the sun rises, animals are on the move, hunting for food or seeking shelter from the heat of the day. After a few hours of game viewing, it's time to head back to camp for a well-deserved breakfast. The rest of the morning can be spent relaxing by the pool. In the afternoon, it's time to head out again for another game drive. This time, you may see different animals than in the morning, as they come out of hiding to take advantage of cooler temperatures. As dusk approaches, you'll return to camp.
