Fewer crowds than the Serengeti make it ideal for relaxed game drives and excellent bird watching year-round.

- Walking safaris (where permitted)
- Night drives in surrounding concessions
- Bird watching hides and guided walks
Wildlife
- Elephants, lion, and leopard
- Kudu, oryx, and giraffe
- Hundreds of bird species including lovebirds
- Predators following seasonal prey
Best Time to Visit
The best time to visit is typically June to October (dry season). Dry seasons offer easier wildlife viewing and access roads, while green seasons bring dramatic skies and newborn animals.
