You've finally collected your 4\u00d74 equipped with a superb tent and set out on your self-drive South African Safari with African trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What's next? Meet the wild animals and, with a bit of luck, come across the famous Big Five: lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant and buffalo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 7 tips to maximise your chances of meeting them on your South African safari:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip no. 1: Adapt to the rhythm of nature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Meet the king of the savannah - you've got to earn it! Felines (lions, cheetahs, leopards) in particular live and hunt at night. During the day, they rest and are more discreet. It is therefore advisable to stay in the national parks and nature reserves from opening to closing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some examples the opening and closing times of the Kruger Park throughout the year<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip no. 2: Look near water!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Like us, animals need to drink. Especially at sunrise. So start your safari day by heading for a waterhole. You might spot a lioness drinking after a long night's hunting. These waterholes also attract other animals such as elephants, buffalo and antelope, and are also gathering places for many birds and small mammals. So you can see a wide variety of wildlife all in one place.<\/p>\n\n\n

Tip 3: Use the animal observation panel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

And yes, just like us, animals have their little habits! Park and nature reserve rangers have identified the routes most frequently used by particular animals. These observation panels are regularly updated by the rangers and visitors and indicate recent sightings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking a photo of this map will enable you to plan your day's itinerary according to the animals you would like to see. This information is particularly useful if you want to see specific species; you'll know which area is best to cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip no. 4: Drive slowly and be discreet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We advise you not to exceed 30km\/h on your self-drive safari, partly because there are speed limits in the reserves and national parks, and partly because you will need to pay close attention to spot animals in the bush. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concentrate on one area and observe the movements, changes of colour and shape. It's well worth the effort, and you may even come across a black rhino hiding in the undergrowth.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Switch off the engine when you see an animal and, above all, do not get out of your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Tip 5: Don't forget your sunglasses and take several pairs of binoculars.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This advice applies particularly to families. If you don't want an antelope to run away in a fit of jealousy, bring a pair of binoculars for your child. This will amuse him and allow you to keep him waiting during any downtime. Having several pairs of binoculars also allows all the passengers to observe at the same time, making the experience more enjoyable for everyone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And keep your sunglasses on to protect your eyes from the African sun and reduce glare. You'll then be better able to observe the animals from a distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tip no. 6: Get off the beaten track<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Explore the roads less travelled to increase your chances of seeing animals in their natural habitat, away from the crowds. A self-drive safari gives you the freedom to explore at your own pace and discover unique places. Be sure to check the parks' rules and safety instructions to avoid getting lost. And be sure to leave the park before it closes.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Tip no. 7: Talk to the rangers and other visitors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rangers and other visitors may have valuable information about the recent movements of wild animals. And for those of you who missed your English lessons, here are a few phrases you may find useful<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Useful English tips :<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Which animals have you seen this morning\/ this Afternoon ? Which animals have you seen this morning\/ this Afternoon ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you seen a rhinoceros? Have you seen a rhinoceros ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where ? Can you show me the location on the map please ? Where ? Can you show me on the map, please ?<\/p>\n\n\n
