Today, you will spend the entire day on a self-drive safari in the Etosha National Park. It’s best to head out right after breakfast, as the day will be slow-paced while exploring the western side of the park. The Etosha National Park is home to thousands of animals from a variety of species, most of which can be found at the waterholes. Depending on the season, it can get quite lively, and you might find yourself surrounded by hundreds of springboks, zebras, elephants, and other incredible wildlife inhabiting this vast national park.
The accommodations and campsites in the park give you the opportunity to travel through the park at a slow pace. Also, outside the park you will find nice lodges. You will be the driver of your own safari, which is unique in Africa. However, camps in and around the park do offer guided game drives. Look around for lions, cheetahs and leopards. With sunset, make yourself comfortable at one of the park’s waterholes at your accommodation, and see how elephants, giraffes, zebras and antelopes gather to drink some fresh water.
