Later you will head out for an evening game drive as most animals are getting ready to get into their hide outs.
This is the best time to go for game drives because you have higher chances of seeing the one of the big fives the Leopard. They are habitats in the national park but they hide so much that most case we might miss them. You will most definitely see the Giraffes, the elephants, among others.
