As the golden hour approaches, climb aboard an open Landcruiser for a 4-hour Sunset Drive, where Africa’s iconic wildlife -think majestic elephants, stealthy leopards, and vibrant birdlife - comes alive against a fiery sunset. As night falls, a spotlight reveals elusive nocturnal creatures.
The evening crescents with a magical BUSH BBQ at the Marula Tree Boma, an unfenced oasis in the Kruger where hyenas prowl nearby. Savor a traditional South African braai under a canopy of stars, an experience that will thrill your senses. Settle into your cozy, airconditioned chalet at Tremisana, where rustic charm meets comfort for a restful night.
