Trip Itinerary
We’ll collect you from your Johannesburg area hotel and set off toward Kruger, taking in rolling landscapes as we travel east. Upon arrival, you’ll meet some of Africa’s most beloved animals — the elephants — in a guided interactive experience where you can touch, feed and learn about these gentle giants from passionate handlers. After an introduction to your stunning river-front lodge, enjoy a delicious dinner and settle into your comfortable room, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the wild.
Today is all about game! After breakfast, we’ll take you into the heart of Kruger National Park for a full-day safari in a specially designed 4×4 vehicle. With expert guidance, you’ll search for Africa’s most iconic wildlife — including elephants, buffalo, lions, rhinos and perhaps even elusive leopards — as the bush unfolds around you. We’ll pause at park rest camps to stretch and refresh before continuing our journey through this legendary wilderness. As the sun sinks, return to camp for another satisfying dinner and a peaceful night close to nature.
After a relaxed breakfast, it’s time to say goodbye to Kruger’s wild heart. You’ll be transferred back toward Johannesburg, reflecting on the incredible encounters, vast landscapes and unforgettable safari memories you’ve collected.
