Day 1

Johannesburg – Shishangeni Lodge

Johannesburg – Shishangeni Lodge

Your journey begins with a scheduled flight from Johannesburg to Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport. On landing, you will be warmly greeted for a private transfer to Shishangeni Lodge in the famous Kruger National Park. It is roughly a 1h 55-min drive to where you will spend the following 2 nights. Shishangeni is one of 7 luxury concessions inside the actual Kruger National Park and enjoys the same level of spectacular wildlife viewing with additional privileges and exclusivity such as off-road game viewing.

Settle into your room, luxuriously equipped with an en-suite bathroom, an outside shower, a fireplace, and a timber deck.

In the afternoon, you will head out with your guide and tracker for a game drive through the reserve in search of wildlife including the Big 5. Expect an uninterrupted game-viewing experience in an untouched African wilderness. Arrive back at the lodge in time to freshen up before enjoying a sumptuous dinner.

Day 2

Kruger National Park Game Drives & Relaxation

Kruger National Park Game Drives & Relaxation

An early morning wake-up call starts the day, followed by a freshly-brewed cup of tea or coffee and rusks before setting off on a morning game drive.

The cooler morning temperatures mean that the game in the reserve is often more active, and the softer light makes for incredible photographs. The world-renowned Kruger National Park offers a wildlife experience that ranks among the best in Africa. It is best known for the "Big Five". You can capture the moment when a pride of lions stalk their prey or possibly watch a buffalo or elephant strolling to a waterhole.

You can relax by lazing around the pool or indulging in one of the many spa treatments which are done in the comfort of your room.

Later in the afternoon, you will head out on your afternoon game drive which may continue beyond dusk. Return to the lodge to enjoy dinner and reminisce about the day’s sightings.
