Its unpredictable as to what you will find and what they will be doing. However, I know where the lion prides hang out and some of the leopards favorite's areas.
On this trip I had all three... leopards, cheetahs and lions 8 days out of 9! Im going again next year so looking forward to  that


How often have you been there?  

Dozens of times, I've been doing the photo safari twice a year since the late 80's Apart from during covid which was a 3-4 year break back now  though! :-)



I realized I just had a brain fart moment, thats the "exposure tours" watermark in your images.  So when you are out there, were do you all stay?  Are you in the field or do you stay in hotels and shuttled out to the field each day?

You stay in a camp/lodge within the parks but you have to be be in the camp  after sunset. So we drive out around 45 minutes before sunrise and back just as tge sun is setting (unless you do a night drive) I stay in a mix of places on each trip both for a variety of access to animals and for the experience.
