For all intent and purpose this article will discuss Half Day Safari' Options in KwaZulu Natal, South Africa. The province is littered with game park's and game reserve's. However the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park is by far the iconic reserve when it comes to tours and safari's while in KwaZulu Natal, South Africa.

South Africa has fast become and will remain a top Safari Destination, this is primarily due to factors such as Safety, Easy Access and the Abundance of wildlife species. The iconic wildlife species that come to mind has to be the African Big 5 however please do take note that not all reserves or parks do have the African Big 5. Their are numerous contributing factors that have to be in place to accommodate the Big 5. These may be factors such as safety (fencing), grazing, space (area) especially when it comes to Elephants and once again water sources. Large areas are needed to carry these animals and Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park has just that 96000 hectares of pure magnificence.

Furthermore what is the real difference between a Full Day Safari and a Half Day Safari then?

Mostly the available amount of time would determine the duration of a safari when it comes to deciding on what safari you would like to book. A Half Day Safari when traveling with Heritage Tours & Safaris would include pretty much everything when it comes to Catering (Bush Breakfast, Refreshments and Coffee and Tea as well as Conservation Levies) not to forget that all Safaris are conducted in Open Game Drive Safari Vehicles.

Time is unfortunately always a factor while travelling abroad and it is for this reason that half day safaris are available. Most half day outings range from 6 to 7 hours and offers one a chance to truly experience the park and witness various wildlife. More importantly it also offers the rangers a good amount of time to discuss and explain the various wildlife that you would get to see.

It is of-course imperative that should you go on a half day safari that you do it as early as possible, yes departures are usually between 5 and 6 am. Wow it's that early? Yes and the reason for that is Predators, the earlier the better as this is when they are most active and that is surely one of the top reasons for being in any park.
