South Africa - Program 1

[Or 45-minute transfer from Mpumalanga Airport]
Dinner at the evening
Overnight in the hotel.

Breakfast, Today we enter the world famous Kruger National Park.
Game viewing opportunities should present themselves almost immediately.
The Kruger Park offers a choice of seven camps, each situated in a different section of the park with its own unique flora and fauna: Skukuza, Letaba, Olifants, Lower Sabie, Pretoriuskop, Satara and Berg-en-Dal.
Accommodation is in simple but comfortable thatched game park bungalows, with each camp having a restaurant and a small shop.
(exact camp subject to availability at time of booking).
Dinner at the evening
Overnight in Camping.

Breakfast, As you will have the services of a private driver/guide throughout your safari, you will have the flexibility of discussing preferred routings and travelling times with him each day.
However we recommend setting off early each morning as the camp gates open (05h30 to 06h00 depending on the season), to take advantage of the best game viewing conditions of the day. Explore the vast Kruger Plains, which offer magnificent game viewing opportunities and the highest concentration of lion in the whole of Africa.
Return to camp at around 09h00 for breakfast.
The rest of the morning can be spent relaxing at camp, reading or bird watching, before setting out again at the time of your choice (usually the late afternoon) for another game drive.
One game drive per day will be in an open-top game viewing vehicle operated by the Kruger Park (either early morning, late afternoon or evening), with all other game drives taken with your host in an air-conditioned minibus, as this is more comfortable in the heat of the day.
In the evening, enjoy the balmy weather and pristine stars of the Southern Sky and Milky Way, as you have never seen them before – including the spectacular Southern Cross.
[Note: Children < 12 are not allowed on open top game drives. However they may enjoy unlimited game drives in your host’s vehicle]
Overnight in Camping.

Breakfast, This morning we return to Johannesburg Airport, stopping at a Cultural Village and self-help project to give you the opportunity of supporting the local community by purchasing one of their handmade products.
[Or fly from Mpumalanga Airport]
Overnight in the hotel.

After breakfast, take the free hotel shuttle to the airport for your 2-hour international flight to Livingstone Airport, Zambia.
You will be met at Livingstone and transferred to your hotel on the banks of the Zambezi River, near the mighty Victoria Falls.
Check in, settle-in and relax whilst you catch your first glimpses of the magnificent “Smoke That Thunders” first discovered by Dr. David Livingstone and still one of the greatest natural wonders of the world.
The flow of water over the Victoria Falls is greatest during the wet months (February to June) but the falls are a magnificent sight at any time of year.
In the later afternoon, enjoy a Sunset Cruise on the Zambezi River to see hippos, crocodiles and the abundant bird life.
Overnight in the hotel.

Breakfast,Today explore on foot the mighty Victoria Falls offering magnificent views. If you wish you mayparticipate in one of the many local activities, such as a helicopter flight over the falls or an elephant-back safari.
