We collect our clients from all hotels, guesthouses and private homes in Gauteng as well as from the Johannesburg International Airport.
We travel via the Highveld farmlands to the picturesque Lowveld and onwards to Tremisana Game Lodge in the Balule section of the Kruger National Park.
After a short break, during which you may unwind at the bar, enjoy a refreshing dip in our sparkling pool and relax in the beautiful tropical gardens, we board the open Landcruiser for a Sunset Drive. Your guide will facilitate your first exciting opportunity to experience the varied fauna and flora of Africa. Watch the magnificent African sunset and, after darkness falls, use spotlights to locate nocturnal animals. Dinner in the boma will be a traditional South African meal. Overnight in comfortable, air-conditioned en suite thatch-roofed chalets.
Drive to the Orpen Gate of Kruger, where we transfer to a custom-built open-sided Gameviewer. The open vehicle allows for a total wildlife opportunity - exceptional sight, sound and scent experiences.
You will not only have an amazing chance to view game but also to listen to and smell the African bush and its denizens. The absence of windows and your elevated vantage position allow for excellent photographic opportunities. We have regular stops at picnic spots, rest camps and places of interest.
After breakfast, visit Moholoholo Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre for orphaned, injured and abandoned animals. Enjoy close-up encounters with birds of prey and large carnivores. After lunch, we drive to Orpen Gate from where Kruger Park rangers drive to a remote area for a 3 hour game walk. We examine signs of the wild, interpreting scats and spoor. The thrill of tracking and closing in to photograph Africa's big game is an experience you will never forget !
Another fun-filled day of game-viewing and bird-watching in one of the greatest Game Reserves in the world.
Your guidewill drive to a different part of Kruger and use intimate knowledge of the Park in an attempt to show you the Big Five. We shall make every effort to find any animals that have eluded us thus far, hoping to produce that unforgettable wildlife highlight.
A quick cup of coffee before you go on an early morning Sunrise Game Drive, after which you enjoy a bush walk with our armed ranger.The signs of elephant are everywhere - expect an adrenalin surge.
After a hearty breakfast , there is an opportunity to purchase some memorabilia from our shop and take photos of the luxuriant lush gardens at Tremisana.
We then drive to the awesome Blyde River Canyon and view the scenic wonders of this great canyon. We return to Gauteng in the late afternoon. Airport dropoff by arrangement.
