Day 1
Our professional Driver/Guide will pick you up in Johannesburg in an air-conditioned vehicle and transfer you via the scenic Panorama Route to Kruger Park. En-route we will visit Pilgrim’s Rest, God’s Window and the Graskop Falls.
We will arrive at Perrys Bridge Hollow (or similar) in the afternoon where you will have time to check-in and freshen up before we depart on a game drive in the Kruger National Park.
You will depart on either an afternoon game drive or a sunset game drive (where you will get your first experience on an open 4X4 Safari vehicle.) The late afternoon offers the lower light game viewing with most animals heading down to the watering holes and offers excellent game viewing opportunities. (Please note the sunset drive is subject to availability)

Day 3:
We will once again collect you for an early morning game drive to try and find the illusive animals that you might have missed on your previous drives.
After your Early Morning Game Drive, we will return to the lodge. Once you have checked out your professional Driver/Guide will be waiting to transfer you to the Sabi Sands Game Reserve.
Sabi Sands has a high concentration of wildlife and is known for the predators, especially the cats. Although the Sabi Sands is a private reserve and is a more exclusive safari experience, it forms part of the Greater Kruger Park with its borders being mainly unfenced with the national park.
Late afternoon and into the evenings are a great time to spot wildlife, after which you will make your way to the lodge for dinner and an opportunity to have a relaxed evening.
Refresh from your short inter-lodge transfer and enjoy some High tea and sometime relaxing by the pool before heading out on your sunset drive. Sundowners will be served as you watch a spectacular sunset over the African Bush. Once the sun has set, the spot lights come out and it’s in search of your predators.
Dinner is served at the lodge.
Day 4: Another early morning call and sunrises await. Today you will head out on two game drives. One morning and one sunset game drive. You will return during the day to enjoy breakfast and lunch. Why not spend some time by the pool? Don’t want to sit in a vehicle twice today? No problem speak to your profession game ranger about doing a short bush walk. Dinner served at the lodge.
Day 5: Waking up early, enjoy a cup of coffee and soak up the lodges atmosphere before embarking on your final game drive of your safari package. Return to the lodge, freshening up and enjoying a good breakfast before your professional driver picks you up and takes you back to Johannesburg.
