Day 2

Full Day Open Vehicle Safari in the Kruger National Park

Full Day Open Vehicle Safari in the Kruger National Park

A morning safari is the best time to see wildlife, especially predators.

Your guide will choose the best areas of the park to explore on this Kruger park game drive. During this morning’s adventure, we will see a variety of wildlife, and we’ll hopefully encounter the Big 5.

The lodge will arrange breakfast packs and after about 3 hours of driving, your guide will stop for breakfast and bathroom break, and there is also a chance to get a coffee. We then continue with the safari. The Kruger Park is home to a variety of eco zones, and each one has a different kind of wildlife to see. During the safari, we will visit rivers and watering holes as well as the vast open plains and the park’s Bushveld regions.

We then stop for lunch at a rest camp, where this meal will be on your own account.

Day 3

Full Day Panorama Route Tour

Full Day Panorama Route Tour

The Panorama Route begins 45 minutes after leaving Hazyview. On our way, the route we take will have us climb almost 1000 meters up into the magnificent Northern Drakensberg Mountain Range. The temperatures up here vary a lot from Hazyview, so bring a jacket as well as comfortable walking shoes, as we do some lovely walks during the day.

After a day of sightseeing, we stop at the small misty town of Graskop for lunch and some curio shopping. The town is famous for its delicious pancakes, so we’ll be stopping for lunch at the town’s pancake restaurant. There are some great locally owned shops waiting to be explored and guests will have more than enough time to enjoy a stroll through the town.

We arrive back at the lodge at about 16:00 pm.

Main Destination:
Panorama Route (Highlight)
Accommodation:
Umbhaba Eco Lodge
  • Mid-range hotel located less than 1hr drive from Panorama Route (Highlight)

Day 4

Morning Safari and Transfer back to Johannesburg

Morning Safari and Transfer back to Johannesburg

Today is our last safari and again we depart from the lodge before sunrise. We will have another packed breakfast at one of the rest camps or picnic sites. The guide will focus on trying to find the animals we couldn’t find on the first 2 safaris, and as always, we hope to see lion and leopard as they are at their most active in the early mornings. The Kruger National Park has 148 mammal species and over 500 bird species, so lots to see and photograph on each game drive.

After a short breakfast and coffee stop, we will continue with the safari, as we make our way back to the lodge at around 12:00 pm.

Here you can say goodbye to your guide and there is time to freshen up before the journey back to Johannesburg. Clients are collected by the shuttle at around 12:30 pm, and you will return to Johannesburg’s OR Tambo shuttle terminal or a lodge within a 5 km radius of the airport, arriving between 17:00 pm and 18:00 pm.
