This safari offers a wonderful chance to explore untouched landscapes, encounter wild animals, and enjoy a smooth off-road ride through the forest, lakes, and grasslands.
Block 5 is less visited than Block 1, which means more wildlife moments and fewer jeeps around. Guests can choose between a Half Day Safari or a Full Day Safari, depending on their schedule and interest.
