You'll take a mid
morning flight out
of Cape Town
(included in the
tour price) and
land about 2.5 hours later,
at a tiny airport
that is actually
inside Kruger
National Park.

After landing 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.

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!

Up next is one of
the highlights of
your trip.
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
down to your
bungalow, or the
restaurant, where you're on your own
for supper. This is
about 100 yards/metres
to 300 yards/metres,
and will take two to
10 minutes.
We suggest an early
night tonight, as
you have an early
start tomorrow.
Depending on the
time of the year,
the morning 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.
After breakfast one
of our guides will
meet you, and you'll
head out of the
camp, on another
safari, generally
lasting a little
more than six hours. Kruger is a
huge park, but we
now the best places
to find animals, and
we'll try and ensure
you see as many as
possible.
One of the fun
things about Kruger
is that you never
know what may be
around the next
corner or behind the
next bush.
After a fun filled
day, we'll leave
Kruger at about 4
p.m., for the 45
minute drive to another airport, from where
you will fly back to Jo'burg
(flight included in
the tour price).

Park safaris. |
