    2. Can I customize the itinerary during the trip?

    3. Is it possible to have a private "Bush Dinner" or Lunch?

    Absolutely. As part of the luxury experience, we can arrange a private gourmet meal in a secluded scenic spot within the park, away from other travelers, complete with full table service.
