Zones 1 and 2 are due to shut from 14 September to 15 October for drought, and now bungalows and campsites inside them are cancelled too. Still plan a safari week then, or shift the whole block of dates.

Shift the dates if your plan was Zones 1 and 2 overnight. Day access to other open zones is a separate question at the gate. Do not invent that the whole park is sealed.

We would move the safari week earlier or later. Mid-September inside those two zones is the wrong bet now.
