You can go on a live safari in your lounge during lockdown to see lions in the Kruger National Park and the Masai Mara

We've seen many attractions and places of interest offer virtual tours, including museums and even Buckingham Place, and now you can even go on a live safari to see real wild animals from your home  - and it'll make you feel like you're actually there.
