Kruger National Park is one of the most popular and well-known game reserves in the world. This wildlife adventure kicks off at Oliver Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg and concludes there again 10 days later.

ROUTE: (JOHANNESBURG – JOHANNESBURG)

DAY 1
After collection at the Oliver Tambo International Airport we book into the Safari Club Lodge a mere 15 minutes drive away.

DAY 2
An early breakfast is enjoyed before we tackle the 5 hour drive to the Panzi Lodge in Hoedspruit, our lodging for tonight. After enjoying a splendid lunch soon after arrival we have the afternoon at leisure before entering the Kruger National Park tomorrow.

DAY 3
We depart Panzi Lodge soon after breakfast and enter the Kruger National Park en route to Letaba, our lodging for the next 2 nights. This 4 hour drive in the park to our lodging will be the start of our game viewing pleasures too, as we are now officially inside the park. We enjoy a light lunch on arrival at Letaba and partake in a late afternoon game drive, enabling us to see many animals ranging from amazing birds to antelope to predators and finally the big ones like rhino and elephant.

DAY 4
A full day awaits us as we enjoy 2 long game drives today with a nice lunch and short rest between the drives. The Kruger National park is a Big Five reserve and you will be blown away by the abundance of wildlife!

DAYS 5 & 6
Two beautiful days follow as we travel to Satara Rest Camp today. The journey to Satara is in the form of a game drive and we are once again guaranteed great sightings. After enjoying a delicious lunch prepared by your guide, you have some free time before the afternoon game drive followed by another beautiful dinner prepared by your guide. Day 6 follows very much the same pattern as Day 5 and includes all the usual items.

DAYS 7 & 8
Another moving day today as we pack up soon after breakfast and depart to Skukuza, our lodging for the next 2 evenings. Game viewing to Skukuza is amazing and by now our list of sightings will be a truly impressive list. The program for these 2 days will be same as day 5 and 6.

DAY 9
Malelane Satellite Camp is our next destination and we depart soon after a leisurely breakfast again enjoying marvellous sightings as we travel along. This camp is very basic, but a great stay as its small and cosy and the ideal location for our last evening in the park. This is a special day and our campfire burns long into the night as we reminisce about the wonderful 10 days in the Kruger National Park.

DAY 10
We depart our lodging at around 9am and navigate our way back to the big city of Johannesburg where this wonderful adventure started. A final lunch is enjoyed at the Oliver Tambo Airport before boarding for your flight home. Thanks for letting us be your guides on this adventure and we hope to see you soon for another African adventure….. bon voyage!!

If wildlife is your scene, I highly recommend this one! We generally travel short distances in the park, but take hours to do it, meaning amazing sightings day after day.

Meals are important to us and we will spoil you with lovely meals all round. Some will be in the form of picnic brunches as we travel along whilst dinners will be prepared over the coals whilst you enjoy our evening fire.

Lodging is in the form of safari tents or bungalows all of perfectly good standard for an adventure of this kind.
