Day of Arrival
On arrival at OR Tambo International Airport, please proceed to the car rental building where you will be met by your driver in front of the Europcar Rental Office at 06h15 or 10h30. The journey to the reserve takes approximately six hours. On arrival you will meet your ranger who will explain the rest of the day’s activities.
Days in Kruger National Park
Your days will start with a wakeup call at 5am followed by early morning tea / coffee, muffins and rusks. We then head off on our morning game walk, which will bring us back to camp for brunch after 3 to 4 hours. You then have a few hours to relax at the facilities of the camp, before meeting again in the afternoon for tea and a light lunch. Afterwards, we head off on our afternoon and night game drive, which will take about 3 to 4 hours. On return at the camp, we share our day’s experiences over a pre-dinner drink, followed by dinner at the lodge. We end off the day with coffee/tea around the camp fire, before retiring for the night.
One of the unique advantages of a small safari camp is that the activities can be tailored to your specific needs. For example, if the guides hear lions roaring close to camp at night, they will often knock on your door and ask if you would like to go and find them. In addition, if you only want to only go on game drives this too can be arranged.
Day of Departure
On the day of departure you will still go out for one last walk. Sniffing the typical scents of the bush you’ll realize how much you’ve learned already! After breakfast it’s time to pack up and we say our goodbyes and transfer you back to the city.
