TIMBAVATI GAME RESERVE
Enjoy daily morning and afternoon guided walks through the African bush. The aim of a walking safari is to gain a holistic understanding of the bush, led by an armed and specially trained walking guide. The pace is relaxed, and your guide will often pause to give you an in-depth introduction to the animals, plants and eco-system you are exploring. Without the hum of an engine, you will begin to notice all the sounds of the bush, from the serenading songbirds to the crackle of branches betraying elephants feeding in the distance. With our qualified walking guides, you will discover a sense of true connection with nature, and you may even get the chance to view our larger game on foot.
