1. What is the best season to visit Savuti Marsh?

The dry season (May to October) is ideal for game-viewing as animals gather around limited water sources. The wet season (November to April) is perfect for birdwatching, with over 450 species present.

2. Can visitors see predators like lions and cheetahs?

Yes. Savuti is home to lions, cheetahs, and other predators, often spotted near water sources, especially during the dry season.

3. Are mokoro or boat trips available in the marsh?

While the marsh itself is more suited to game drives and guided walks, nearby waterways can offer boat excursions in certain areas, depending on the season and water levels.

4. Do I need special permits to visit the conservancies?

No, all entry fees and permits are managed by the lodges or tour operators; visitors do not need separate permits.
