Nothing is wilder than a year in the African bush. From unforgettable wildlife encounters to moments that fluttered, rumbled, and roared, leaving a trail of memories in their wake.
Across all of our camps at Sun Destinations, every year is made up of 365 days where the extraordinary is effortlessly embedded into the everyday. While your average day on safari may follow a routine, that doesn’t mean there are two days that are ever the same. Which is exactly what makes every safari such a special experience. From unexpected encounters and laugh out loud moments to scenes that stopped us in our tracks, these are the wildest highlights of 2025.
