More game drives in South Luangwa National Park. Do-it-yourself safaris aren't so expensive if you stay at Flatdogs, a backpacker camp. We've already mentioned that camping costs $5 per night. Gamedrives cost $20 per trip and the park fees cost $20 per day. Fifty dollars per day, per person, is the cheapest you can expect to pay while on safari. Go to a game lodge or hire an expert guide and the price jumps to at least $300 per day per person. | |||
Tracking a lion... | |||
and
finding him in the bushes. | |||
We think the carmine bee-eater
is the best looking African bird. | |||
This plant has developed a good defense mechanism
against grazing: it's leaves curl up if touched. | |||
If you're a bird you can stand on a hippo's head. | |||
