Typical safari days
You are privately guided in an open-sided game viewing vehicle (the vehicle pictured), your game drives are exceptional in that your guide is able to interpret the behaviour, the ecology and relationships of and between all the animals, vegetation and landscapes you see during your game drives with him. His accreditations and qualifications as a field guide and trails ranger are exemplary, and coupled with 15 years of experience in the Kruger make your time with him a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Big 5 sightings of elephant, rhino, lion, leopard and African buffalo are just as rewarding as all the aspects of being in the African bush in amongst the 148 mammal species, over 500 birds, 350 tree species and a huge diversity of landscapes and eco-zones. It's our ability to interpret this amazing diversity of wildlife, of cultural and historical influences, as well as unravel the ecological secrets and mysteries that make Africa so special that makes us leaders in private guiding in the Kruger National Park.

Kruger nights are wonderful - the southern skies play host to the nocturnal calls of hyenas, jackals, baboons and lion all while you enjoy once-in-a-lifetime moments in the African bush.

Two game drives every day - no schedule for the length or diversity of the game drives except your family's needs, and what the bush delivers.

On one your nights with us we organise a nocturnal drive (night drive) with spotlights - in order to get out in the dark which presents wonderful opportunities to look at the glorious star-filled skies, and some of the more secretive animals like wild cats, porcupines, owls, African civet and other nocturnal animals.

Accommodation
We choose the best available accommodation options for your safari; depending on the number of days you wish to spend in the Kruger we will select either one, two or three lodges (restcamps) in the south or central Kruger.

Your accommodation units are private, one bedroom en-suite serviced bungalows under beautifully thatched roofs with a fridge, air-conditioning and an outside area to sit and enjoy the sights and sounds around you.

Meals and refreshments
All dinners and breakfasts are included in our price (lunches and beverages are excluded)
*On one of the evenings with us, Neil will host you to a traditional braai which he will cook under the southern skies for you.

Game drives are planned to include stops for breakfasts or return to the lodge where you can eat at the restaurant.

Travel days
Guests that take up our FREE travel and overnight offer will arrive at Kruger at about 3pm.
Guest who have chosen their own travel arrangements to Nelspruit should fly in or arrive in Nelspruit at approx. midday; this allows us time to plan your FREE road transfer to the Kruger comfortably, with minimum fuss on the first day.

You meet Neil at the first lodge (restcamp), and depending on your time of arrival - he will settle you in to your accommodation, a quick orientation around the lodge and then onto our open-sided safari game viewing vehicle for your first memorable game drive, and introduction to the world-famous Kruger National Park.

Departure day
We always try and fit in an early morning game drive, and of course, a hearty breakfast before departure. Departure days depend on your transfer out of Nelspruit, however, we will always plan the best possible morning for you.
