Experience the legendary Kruger National Park, home to the magnificent ‘Big Five’ animals of the world, and a host of others besides...147 species of mammal, and over 500 bird species. Our specialist tour into this famous reserve is in specially modified, open safari vehicles, both to enhance your game viewing, and to provide the finest, unimpeded vantage points for photography and bird watching. There’s little between you and your subject! Our qualified experienced guides will undoubtedly enhance the experience by their deep understanding of the bush and the movement and identification of animals and birds, something they will impart to you. You’ll not only relish the experience of being in the Kruger environment, but you’ll leave with gems of info you’d never have known before.

MORNING BUSH WALK

On with your boots, we’re going walking deep into the African bush at sunrise. Accompanied by two knowledgeable, armed bush trackers, we set off quietly to follow the spoor of game, learning about their movements and the significance of certain marks or sounds. We learn how to identify plants and birds too. It’s a glorious morning, with the opportunity of seeing wildlife up close, as well as honing our tracking skills. You’ll have earned your morning cup of coffee!

Min 4 guests.
No children under 12 years.

JANE GOODALL INSTITUTE - CHIMPANZEE EDEN

Chimpanzees are intriguing, endearing creatures which hold a particular fascination for us. Studying them in this semi-wild environment at close range in this, the first and only sanctuary in South Africa is an amazing and heart-warming experience. At Chimpanzee Eden, you’ll watch them at feeding time, from the superb vantage point of multiple viewing decks. Their specialist guide will share innumerable intriguing facts about chimpanzee behaviour and language, and in the educational hall, you’re free to wander through the multimedia exhibits and view the signage illustrations. We complete the morning with a light lunch, a golden opportunity to swop notes on the experience.

MOZAMBIQUE DAY TOUR

Historical, cultural, scenic! Our Mozambique day tour is a three-in-one experience. It was here that Vasco da Gama landed in 1498 on his way to India, and Maputo, the capital city, is redolent with the Portuguese history of the region. We tour this fascinating City, cruise along the Marginal - the famous palm-lined avenue along the beachfront – and our guide will point out all the highlights of historical, cultural and scenic beauty. This city hums with activity, and you’ll see and feel the hustle and bustle of a city which never sleeps.

Note: Passport required & visa conditions may apply.

SWAZILAND DAY TOUR

From one country to another in a matter of minutes! As you cross the border, you’ll not only feel the warmth of the friendly, welcoming people of Swaziland, but you’ll fall in love with the lush fertile valleys and magnificent mountain scenery. Our journey takes us over the Maguga Dam Wall, and perhaps a glimpse of the Banana Leaf Dancers. We visit the Nsangwini Rock Art and explore the bushman paintings tucked away in a rock shelter, dramatically perched above the Komati River below – no finer way to learn about the origins of the Swazi people. (Depending on fitness level). For the artisans, shoppers and crafts lovers among us, Ngwenya Glass is a Must See. We’ll watch highly skilled glass blowers creating their wonderful works of art, all handmade from recycled glass. A short distance away, we’ll pop into a traditional craft centre where you can choose that special curio for that special person back home. And after all that shopping, a light lunch is definitely what’s needed.
