Itinerary:
Day 1 Johannesburg/ Greater Kruger National Park
Depart the heart and soul of modern South Africa early in the morning to start the safari adventure of a lifetime. Arrive in the Greater Kruger area just in time for lunch. Spend the afternoon on dramatic game drives in open 4×4 vehicles through a private game reserve. There’s plenty to see here so keep an eye out for Africa’s Big Five: lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos and buffaloes. Afterwards, return to a comfortable lodge on the park’s outskirts and relive stories of close encounters over a traditional South African meal around a log fire.
Day 2 Kruger National Park
Head out on a thrilling safari through African grasslands. Seek out lions lazing under shady bushes, search for elephant herds and spy the plethora of colourful birdlife darting through the trees. Afterwards, spend the evening relaxing at the lodge with a refreshing sundowner in hand.
Day 3 Greater Kruger National Park
Head out on more game drives or settle in at the lodge to rest. In the late afternoon, embark on an exciting sunset game drive to see another side of the African wilderness as nocturnal creatures venture into the open, ready for a night of hunting.
Day 4 Johannesburg
Begin the day by rising early for a morning nature walk with a knowledgeable local guide, who will help to identify bird and plant species. Enjoy a tasty breakfast back at the lodge, then embark on a scenic drive back to the bright lights of Johannesburg, stopping for spectacular views over the gigantic Blyde River Canyon and the awesome Three Rondavels along the way.
