Once you've landed, you'll be transported on a 10 minute drive, through the surrounding bush, to the camp at which you'll be staying. After checking in to your bungalow, you're on your own to explore this remote bush camp.

Maybe there'll be warthogs outside your bungalow!

Depending on where you are staying, it will be a two to 10 minute walk down to the area where the general store, restaurant and take out facility are, right on the Sabie River. You can sit on a picturesque deck alongside the river, sip a cup of tea and try and find animals on the river banks!

The best time to see animals is around sunrise and sunset, and your safaris are planned around these times. At about 4 p.m. you'll take a stroll (about three to 10 minutes, and 100 to 300 yards/metres) up to where the sunset safari departs from. You'll be in an open air game viewing vehicle, with an experienced and skilled guide. The safari will last about three hours, on Kruger's dirt, back roads.

For most of the year, this safari drive only comes back after dark, and you will have the opportunity to use search lights to try and find animals!

After getting back, you'll walk back to your bungalow, or the restaurant, where you're on your own for supper. We suggest an early night tonight, as you have an early start tomorrow. Depending on the time of the year, the safari generally begins between 4 a.m. and 5 a.m. You will once again take the short walk to the safari departure location. This is once again in an open air game viewing vehicle, with the safari lasting about three hours.

You'll be on your own to buy yourself breakfast at the same restaurant, and will have a few hours to wander around the camp, before leaving for the airport at about midday. You will once again be flying out from a small airport inside Kruger, with the flight back to Johannesburg taking about an hour, landing by about 2.30 p.m.
