Johannesburg - Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate

Embark on an unforgettable safari adventure as you depart from Johannesburg OR Tambo International Airport at 07:00 am in a comfortable shared minivan transfer. Journey through the scenic Highveld and Lowveld regions of Mpumalanga, arriving at Ivory Moon Lodge at approximately 14:00. After a refreshing break, your adventure begins with an afternoon sunset game drive in the Greater Kruger’s Blue Canyon Reserve, exploring the wilderness in an open safari vehicle.

Keep your eyes peeled for Africa’s iconic Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo—along with other remarkable wildlife such as giraffe, zebra, and hippo. As the sun sets over the savannah, enjoy sundowners in the bush before returning to the lodge for a delicious dinner and fireside storytelling beneath a starlit African sky.
