Mpumalanga - The five-hour road journey from Johannesburg to Kruger National Park is a scenic adventure that transitions from the bustling urban landscape to the vast, open stretches of the South African countryside. As the cityscape fades, rolling hills and sprawling farmlands take over, dotted with small towns and roadside stalls offering local crafts and fresh produce. The road winds through diverse terrains, from rugged mountains to dense forests, with occasional glimpses of wildlife hinting at the wilderness ahead. By the time you reach the park’s entrance, the anticipation of encountering Africa’s Big Five has grown, making the long drive feel like a prelude to the safari excitement that awaits.

Kruger National Park - We first do a 3 hour sunset game drive. A three-hour game drive in Kruger National Park offers a concentrated burst of excitement and discovery as you traverse through its rich landscapes. In just a few hours, you might find yourself encountering a pride of lions lounging in the shade or witnessing a herd of elephants gracefully moving across the savannah. The thrill of spotting wildlife is heightened by the park’s diverse terrain, where every turn could reveal a new surprise—perhaps a solitary leopard perched in a tree or a group of zebras grazing peacefully. As the drive unfolds, the beauty and unpredictability of the wild keep you engaged, making even a short safari an unforgettable experience.

Full day safari at Kruger National Park

Kruger National Park - On day 2 we pick you at 5.30am with your packed breakfast to go for the full day game safari. A full-day game safari in Kruger National Park is a thrilling quest to witness Africa’s iconic Big Five and the park’s abundant wildlife. As dawn breaks, the park comes alive with activity, and the crisp morning air is filled with the calls of birds and the rustle of the bush. Elephants move gracefully through the trees, while lions bask in the early sunlight. By midday, we encounter herds of buffalo grazing and elusive leopards resting in the shade, their spots blending seamlessly with the dappled light. The afternoon brings sightings of rhinos and towering giraffes, and as the day draws to a close, the vivid sunset casts a golden glow over the landscape, leaving us in awe of the rich tapestry of life in this wild sanctuary.

On day 3 we depart from Kruger National Park after breakfast to head back to Johannesburg

Nelspruit - The five-hour drive from Kruger National Park to Johannesburg takes you on a scenic journey from the heart of the wild to the bustling urban landscape.
