Join this safari and discover the extraordinary flora of the 500 hectares of Bandia Reserve, located in the heart of a forest of baobabs and acacias, where wild animals can evolve in total freedom and safety.

The tour departs from your hotel and you'll travel to one of the private reserves of Bandia. Observe African savannah animals with a fauna expert guide in a picturesque baobab forest. See giraffes, antelopes, ostriches, crocodiles, rhinos, monkeys, and more.

Then, you'll tour the Ranch de Bandia in a 4X4 vehicle specially equipped with grid protection. Immerse yourself into a tribe of adult lions,

It was 'OK' - not so much a Safari as are rather contrived meeting with a group of lions who were close by in an enclosure clearly expecting to be fed. To be fair, it's probably the only way operators could guarantee punters 'seeing the lions' and giving visitors (who were safely enclosed in their vehicles wire cages) close up access for photos. Whole tour took half a day but only 40 minutes or so in the lion enclosure. So lions on top of vehicles bonnets and fed raw meat by the drivers.
