Rent Your Own Vehicle
In some countries (and you might want to check the laws before you arrive), you can bypass using a guide and rent a safari vehicle on your own. This can sometimes save you the cost of using a guide and will give you more autonomy on where you go, what you do, how long you spend looking at an animal. Have a look at www.drivesouthafrica.co.za
Drive Along the Border Of A National Park
Again, with a good map, and a safari vehicle, you drive around the borders of the national parks and avoid having to pay the typical fees to drive around on the inside. Is this cheating? Hell no. It’s public land and, if there are animals, why shouldn’t you be allowed to see them? The fees to go on the inside many parks are sometimes very high, and therefore usually have the highest concentrations of animals.
Ride A Bus or Train Through The National Parks
In some countries, local buses and trains travel through wilderness parks. Make sure you do some research in advance and grab a window seat on the bus. Better yet, sit on top of the bus, if it’s slow speed.
