The BIG 5, and an adventurous ride

1. Lions – How often do you see your children shout at seeing a Lion on a television? In fact, lions are quite popular among all ages. The beauty of Africa is that you can see them live in their natural habitat and almost all the while you can find them sleep under the shade.

2. Elephants – Do not be in a hurry if you see some Big Elephants passing by, as they are some of the very peaceful creatures one can find on the African ground. Seldom would you see an elephant all alone as they generally walk in large groups. What's more exciting and pleasure-giving is the little baby elephant that could become the center of attraction instantly as and when you pass by one.

3. Leopards – Next in the queue are Leopards. They are exciting, charming and can allure anyone passing by. You would often see leopards in Africa either on the move or in a tree. The cubs are just fascinating to the eye as they are one of the lovable creatures you can find playing in groups. Since most leopards enjoy hunting in the night, you would be glad to see them during both, day as well as night time.

4. Buffaloes – Buffaloes are usually seen walking and eating grass in big herds, or you can find a Buffalo all alone that has possibly lost the path. Moving around with their old mates, buffaloes offer a great sight, but may not be as interesting to see as some others.

5. Rhinoceros – Last in the catalogue are Rhinos. Love to see them? I am sure most of you will. Although the species is prone to extinction, they are so lovely to see that you can't just get your eyes off them. Especially, the lovely little one! You know what I mean. Right?

And that's it! Call your nearby travel advisor to talk about the most suitable South African safari packages available to you, and get ready to bang into the African Wildlife, as these Big 5 might be waiting for your arrival!
