Africa Big 5 Safari

Experience the thrill of encountering the Big 5 on an unforgettable African safari.

If there’s one thing Africa excels at more than any other place on Earth, it’s wildlife, and few experiences can rival the pure excitement of a direct encounter with one of Africa’s Big 5. Traditionally, the animals that present the most significant challenge to their hunters, the Big 5 – lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, and leopard – continue to roam freely across South, Southern, and East Africa. Their presence in a national park or game reserve enhances the thrill of your safari experience.

Our Big 5 safari destinations offer a diverse array of experiences, and we recommend collaborating closely with your safari expert to ensure your dreams come to life. For those embarking on their first safari, Tanzania’s Ngorongoro Crater and exclusive Kruger reserves like Sabi Sands are excellent choices. These destinations offer exceptional opportunities to encounter the Big 5, ensuring that you’re likely to check off each of these magnificent animals after just a few game drives.

For an experience that is untamed and off the beaten path Zambia’s South Luangwa is renowned as the origin of walking safaris and is celebrated for its remarkable density of big game, featuring a wealth of four of the Big 5 – just don’t anticipate spotting a rhino. The wetlands and grassy plains of Botswana’s Moremi Game Reserve offer thrilling encounters with leopards, massive herds of elephants, lions, cheetahs, and packs of wild dogs, though rhinos remain elusive once more.

We understand the thrill of encountering Africa’s iconic wildlife, which is why our suggested Big 5 tours and safaris offer you an excellent opportunity to witness all of Africa’s legendary Big 5 animals. We have the perfect destinations in mind and the ideal seasons to explore them: Botswana’s Chobe River in the dry season showcases astonishing gatherings of elephants and buffalo that are truly remarkable. We can guide you to the prime spots for rhino and leopard sightings, or share the ideal times to embark on a Serengeti safari to witness the massive herds of migrating wildebeest, with big cats closely pursuing them.
