Day 1: Arrival in Johannesburg – Connect to Kruger

You’ll land in Johannesburg where a brief layover leads to a connecting flight into the Greater Kruger region. Upon arrival, a driver will greet you and transfer you to your lodge near the park. Spend the afternoon at leisure, enjoying panoramic bush views and preparing for your safari experience ahead.

Day 2: Kruger National Park – Morning & Afternoon Game Drives

Wake up before sunrise to join your first guided game drive in an open 4×4 safari vehicle. As the golden light bathes the savannah, keep your eyes peeled for elephants, lions, leopards, rhinos, and buffalo. Return to the lodge for a lavish brunch and downtime, then venture out again in the late afternoon as predators become active.

Day 3: Kruger – Full Day of Safari & Bush Moments

Another full day dedicated to wildlife immersion. Depending on your lodge, you may explore private reserves with off-road access, allowing intimate sightings. Between drives, enjoy optional bush walks led by rangers, or simply relax with spa treatments and fine dining under the stars.
