Safari day in Kruger

You awake at sunrise to get ready for your morning safari. You will be on one of the first vehicles leaving the camp as gates open in the morning, with the privilege of exploring the gravel and tar roads before anyone else. Later, our chef will prepare a hot breakfast for you. We then continue our drive until the sun is already high and it’s time for a lunch break. Take a siesta in your tent or a dip in the pool back at camp.

In the afternoon, we will continue with our safari and spend some time on the roads surrounding the camp in search of more animal sightings. Upon return to the camp, enjoy some sundowner drinks and relax while your chef prepares dinner.
