of Pretoria, the seat of Government, before passing through the
highlands
with its many corn, cattle and sheep farms eastwards towards Kruger Park.
We also pass through the area where the worlds largest diamond, to date
,was found, The Cullinan Diamond 3106 carats. Once we pass through the
coal mining town of Witbank, we will shortly arrive for our first
welcome coffee break. Your guide will point out along the way a well known
tulip farm before you arrive at the hilly escarpment and trout fishing
area of Belfast. The journey begins to become more and more scenic
as you arrive in the low lying Nelspruit area of hills and valleys
and where a third of the country's citrus grows. Enjoy a stop at a well
stocked african craft shop before departing for the final leg to the Kruger
National Park. Arrive Kruger Park for lunch, check into your accommodation
and relaxation before we leave on our afternoon exciting game drive until
sunset. Evening spent at your leisure - dinner (excluded) is available

Day

Kruger National Park.
Sunrise wake up with
tea, coffee and biscuits. Get your cameras ready for exciting morning game
viewing. In the comfort of your open vehicle, offering you tremendous height
and unobstructed views, we set off in search of the Big Five visiting waterholes,
rocky outcrops, river roads and open savannah. Enjoy the thrill of seeing
elephant, giraffe, hippos, rhino and many other species in their natural
environment. After approximately three hours stop for a mouth watering
buffet breakfast/brunch before continuing back to camp on another game
drive. Time to relax during the heat of the day, swim, sun tan, read a
few chapters of your gripping book, game view from the camp balcony, do
a bit of shopping, have a bit of lunch or simply sleep in your air conditioned
bungalow until afternoon game drive. Afternoon game drive departs
3 hours before sunset, enjoy the thrill of seeing lions in the road, a
fish eagle grooming itself in a large fig tree, watch a dung beetle push
his ball across the road avoiding all the obstacles, take a photograph
of the impala lily - a beautiful flower. Enjoy a massive herd of buffalo
crossing or an elephant bull blocking the road and never mind the elusive
leopard that is often up a tree this time of day. Evening spent at your

Day
3:
Kruger National Park
- Johannesburg/Pretoria
Sunrise wake up with
tea, coffee and biscuits. Get your cameras ready for exciting morning
game viewing. Wait for the monkeys and baboons to leave the road
before we head for a new game viewing area. We have the advantage of our
open vehicles being radio interlinked to other similar vehicles so we do
not miss that special sighting. Enjoy a slow drive past a rocky out crop,
enjoy a giraffe in the morning light reaching for the top leaves of an
acacia tree. The dazzling effect of the zebra's hide is quite noticeable
as we pass through a herd. What you have been waiting for a leopard flicking
its tail through the long grass then giving us a clear view before departing
to its solitary world. Time to stop for a delicious buffet style breakfast.
Pack our bags, leave camp for our final game drive in search of
those animals we may have not seen. Time to leave the magnificent Kruger

break and lunch. Arrive Johannesburg at approximately 6 pm.
