We leave Gauteng early morning and head the world’s renowned “Big 5” Kruger National Park via the panoramic route for an unforgettable holiday.  We will stop over at Dullstroom – the trout mega and Pilgrims rest (Historic towns) where we will stay over for two nights and enjoy the old ambiance of the towns.  From here we will visit places such as God’s Window, Bourke’s Luke Potholes the Blyde River Canyon and various waterfalls.  Leaving the mesmerizing views of the Panoramic route and enter the unspoiled nature of the Kruger National Park and start “Shooting” Impalas, Buffalo Lion, hippo’s, elephants and leopards on our way to our camp where we will stay for the next 3 nights.  At the camp we can relax and the water lovers can take a swim while the guide will prepare a bushbraai. 

Day 4 - Kruger National Park (Sun set - open vehicle Game drive.) 

Smell the fresh aroma of elephant dung while we leave the camp bright and early for a full day of mostly game viewing.  The chance to see the big 5 today will be excellent.  Brunch will be on route at a picnic spot in Mother Nature.  We will turn back to our camp round about 13:00 where we can spend time at leisure.  At 17:00 we will enjoy an open vehicle night game drive to spot the elusive nocturnal animals of the bush.  Back at the camp dinner will be served in the restaurant.     

 Day 5 - Kruger National Park.

Today we will be more in touch with nature.  You will smell the grass warmed by the sun; hear the birds and maybe a lion.  You will enjoy the bushveld and wildlife here in a mysteries way.  We will go on an early morning drive with your guide. Breakfast will be on the deck of the restaurant or at a picnic place.  There will be time for bird watching, swimming, and reading or shopping at the camps curio shop.  At 15:00 your guide will take you on an afternoon drive looking for species not yet spotted.  We will end the last evening with a traditional Boma braai.  

   

Day 6 & 7 - Morning walk – Gauteng       

Start the day with a bush walk accompanied by an armed qualified Kruger game ranger.  Walking in the park might bring a few surprises.   Stories of nature and identifying footprints of various animals will be interesting to hear and see. Breakfast will be served back at the camp. This is our last day in Kruger and we will enjoy every moment.  The next morning we leave the chalets to have a traditional South African breakfast at the restaurant on the deck.  On our way to the gate we might still bump into a lion or two, who knows.  We exit the park head back to Johannesburg/ Pretoria to arrive late afternoon.
