There is nothing under the skies that can ever take away the intensity of watching African wildlife under a dazzling sunset. No words can describe the feeling that engulfs you when you see the majestic walk of a lion, so close to the tour van or feeling that rumble of a leopard as it attacks a gazelle in the Massai Mara. Some experiences cannot be put in cold print. You have to experience them for you to feel it all. If you have never visited Africa to witness their wildlife, you should definitely have it in your bucket list.
The Preparation
For you to have the ultimate experience, you must first prepare adequately. It starts with doing your research. Identify where you want to go, and then start doing research about it. Some of the popular destinations to see African wildlife include the Serengeti, Masaai Mara, Kruger Park, Etosha Park among others. You should then ensure your documents are in order. Check if you need a passport, yellow fever card, and other essential documents that will allow you to move across borders. Get as much information about unique animals you must see and where you are most likely to spot them. You should also have a checklist of what to carry with you to make your travel comfortable. Remember to pack light so that you do not get burdened by heavy bags.
When You Arrive
Carry enough local cash to take you through as most animal parks do not take cards or foreign currency. You should, however, not have a heap of money with you. Withdraw only what you need for the day. Remember that you are going for the experience. Do not be too focused on taking photos that you forget to savour every beautiful moment of watching the animals in their wild uncaged environment.
