safari tour

African game drive

A safari tour is an organized excursion to observe wildlife in their natural habitat, typically in African savanna regions.

The term combines safari (Swahili for "journey") with tour to emphasize the guided, packaged nature of the experience: We booked a safari tour through the Serengeti.

Safari tours usually include transportation, lodging, and expert guides who help spot animals.
