Frequently asked

Planning this itinerary

Should I book for calving season or crossing season?

Both are exceptional — calving (Jan-Mar) offers dense predator action, while crossings (Jun-Sep) offer the iconic river-drama imagery; we'll route your dates to match your priority.

Is this itinerary flexible on daily routing?

Yes, your guide adjusts the daily route based on real-time herd position reports throughout your stay.
