Day 1- Johannesburg to Pilgrim’s Rest:

Departing Johannesburg at 07h00, we drive through the highlands and grasslands of the Mpumalanga Province (Where the Sun rises). We have quite a long day but stop often to visit the scenic Panoramic Route. We visit beautiful waterfalls, Bourke’s Luck Potholes, the Blyde River Canyon and the quaint, historical mining village of Pilgrim’s Rest where we camp for the night alongside the Blyde River and enjoy dinner in the beautiful surrounds.

Day 2 and 3- Kruger National Park:

After breakfast, we pack up and depart Pilgrim’s Rest and continue our adventure down the Drakensberg Mountains Escarpment enjoying the magnificent scenery. We enter Kruger around midmorning and commence with our safari. Stopping en-route for lunch at a picnic spot within the park, we arrive at our camp in the southern section in the mid afternoon. We have time to relax before our open vehicle night safari guided by one of the Kruger Ranger’s. A delicious warm meal is served on your return from the night drive and enjoyed listening to the sounds of the night.

Our second day in the park is much like the first and rising before sunrise, enjoy a welcome cup of tea or coffee and biscuits. We pack our vehicle and head into the park for a long morning drive. We stop at a picnic spot to enjoy a large cooked breakfast before heading deeper into the wilderness in search of the plentiful game. At around midday, much like the wildlife, we return to our camp to rest and relax by the pool and later in the afternoon once the temperature has cooled down a bit, we head out for another safari returning just before sunset and later enjoy dinner in the camp around our crackling campfire.

Day 4- Kruger National Park to Johannesburg:

We wake once again before sunrise and after a healthy breakfast, pack up camp and depart on our final game drive through the park. We visit areas that we haven’t yet seen or to those where our sightings have been plentiful before exiting Kruger and back to Johannesburg where the tour finishes at around 17h00. (B)
