Day One of Safari

 

Leave Johannesburg or Pretoria in an air-conditioned microbus with our experienced Kruger Park guide.
Travel east across the Highveld farmlands and down the beautiful Elands Valley to Nelspruit – capital of Mpumalanga province. Continue through the pine plantations to Hazyview where we stop for lunch & to collect the open safari vehicle. Enter southern Kruger Park & prepare for your first exciting game drive. Your guide will explain how to spot the animals & then look out for antelope, giraffe, zebra & when its cooler maybe some of the Big Five. Before sunset arrive at the Rest Camp and book into an air-conditioned chalet with shower, toilet and screens to prevent insects, or settle into your comfortable tent. Meet your group for drinks and a true African Barbeque dinner under the vast African skies. During the night you might hear lions roaring or hyena whooping which adds to the excitement of the African bush.

 


Day Two & Three of Safari

 

Awaken at dawn & head out in the open safari vehicle for an early morning game drive to look for lions and other Big Five species (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino & buffalo). Stop at a picnic spot or camp for breakfast then continue game viewing. This is the best time of the day to see animals drinking, crocodiles lying on the bank & aquatic birds.
