boat safari
River animal tour
A boat safari is a wildlife-viewing excursion conducted from a watercraft, typically through rivers, lakes, or wetlands in regions like Africa or South America.
The boat allows access to animals that gather near water—hippos, crocodiles, elephants, waterfowl—often providing closer encounters than land vehicles permit.
We spotted a pod of hippos on the morning boat safari.
