Pick up from Msembe airstrip or any other camp in the park around lunchtime depending on plane schedules. A nice long game drive into the wilderness will ensue which may take up to three hours depending on the camp's current location. With a fabulous bush lunch and refreshments en route we will arrive at the camp late afternoon or early evening and settle in after a warm welcome.
