This unique tour offers an exhilarating opportunity to encounter nocturnal wildlife in their natural habitat. From lions to leopards, hyenas, and other fascinating predators, the sights and sounds of the African bush come to life in ways you can only experience after dark.

The journey begins with a comfortable hotel pickup from your accommodation in Victoria Falls Town. As the evening sets in, you’ll travel to the Nakavango Private Game Reserve, located just 7 miles from town. This exclusive reserve provides a unique setting for your safari, offering a mix of basalt plains, Kalahari sands, and teak forests that create a diverse habitat for a wide range of African wildlife. Upon arrival, you’ll board an open 4X4 safari vehicle, ready to explore this untouched wilderness with an expert guide leading the way.

As you set off into the African bush, your knowledgeable guide will share fascinating insights about the environment and its wildlife. This is your chance to see the changing landscape of the reserve as you drive through different ecosystems, each home to its own unique array of species. From herbivores grazing on the plains to the occasional glimpse of a predator on the prowl, you’ll be captivated by the raw beauty of the landscape. The guide will keep an eye out for the most elusive creatures, ensuring you don’t miss out on any of the action.

As sunset approaches, the tour pauses at a scenic vantage point where you can stretch your legs and enjoy some drinks and snacks while soaking in the stunning views. The evening sky over the reserve provides the perfect backdrop for some breathtaking photos. This is also a time to relax and reflect on the day's adventure, chatting with fellow travelers before continuing into the night.

Once the sun has dipped below the horizon, the safari takes on a whole new atmosphere. Armed with a spotlight, your guide will guide you through the reserve in search of nocturnal animals that only emerge after dark. This is the time to witness the predators of the African wilderness in action. With your guide’s expertise and the spotlight’s beam, you might encounter lions hunting, leopards stealthily moving through the underbrush, and hyenas scavenging the plains. The sounds of the bush take on a different tone at night – the calls of night birds, the rustling of leaves, and the occasional growl or roar of distant predators.

This portion of the safari offers a unique chance to see animals behaving naturally in their environment. As you observe, your guide will share their knowledge of these creatures, explaining how they hunt, communicate, and survive in the wild. Depending on the time of year, the safari can last about 1.5 hours, ensuring you have ample time to explore the reserve and spot as many nocturnal animals as possible. Keep your camera ready – you never know when a lion might appear in the spotlight, or when a hyena might cross your path!
