Discover Greater Kruger 4 Nights

Greetings! Welcome to the stunning South Africa! Upon your arrival at Eastgate Airport in Hoedspruit, your guide will meet you in an open safari vehicle for a swift 20-minute transfer to Bundox Safari Lodge. A refreshing drink awaits you upon arrival, followed by a guided tour of your tent. Take ample time to settle in and familiarize yourself with the lush forest-like surroundings. Later, indulge in a 60-minute spa treatment at Spa@Bundox.

Upon your return, take a moment to freshen up for pre-dinner drinks. Unwind by the fire in our open-air boma, sharing stories about life in the bush, before savoring a delightful three-course dinner in our restaurant.

You’ll be up very early for the start of a full day of adventure in the legendary Kruger National Park! With fresh coffee and rusks in our reception area before departing before dawn for the 40-minute drive to the Orpen Gate in an open safari vehicle, you’ll also receive a packed breakfast to enjoy either en route or at a scenic spot in the park.

The world-renowned Kruger National Park is one of the highlights of South Africa. It’s home to a diversity of species including the fabled Big Five. The area you will traverse is one of the most game-rich regions of the park, renowned for itspredator and elephant sightings.

You will stop at Satara Rest Camp restaurant for lunch (for your own account) before continuing your explorations, arriving back at camp just before sunset with time to freshen up and enjoy pre-dinner drinks around the fire while reminiscing about the day’s amazing sightings before dinner is served.

After your morning meal, engage in a peaceful boat cruise on the Blyde Dam. This serene and captivating experience unfolds against the breathtaking backdrop of the Blyde Canyon and the majestic Three Rondavels. Led by an experienced tour guide, participants embark on a leisurely journey along the dam. The canyon, acknowledged as the third-largest globally and the largest green canyon, thanks to its lush subtropical foliage, offers a stunning setting for exploration.

Later in the day, your agenda includes a visit to a nearby wildlife rehabilitation center. Rehabilitation centers serve as sanctuaries dedicated to the care, recovery, and eventual release of injured, orphaned, or distressed animals.

These facilities play a crucial role in conservation efforts, providing specialized care and rehabilitation programs tailored to the unique needs of each species. Guided tours typically offer visitors the chance to witness the center’s commitment to wildlife welfare, learn about conservation initiatives, and gain insights into the challenges faced by animals in the wild. It’s a valuable and educational experience that fosters awareness and appreciation for the tireless efforts to protect and preserve diverse wildlife populations.

Following a leisurely morning spent relaxing by the pool or in a shaded oasis overlooking the bush, indulge in an extraordinary afternoon adventure. A game drive in the Greater Kruger National Park, renowned for being a Big 5 area, is an exhilarating safari experience that immerses participants in the heart of South Africa’s iconic wilderness.

Conducted in open safari vehicles with experienced guides, the adventure unfolds against the backdrop of diverse landscapes, ranging from expansive savannahs to dense bushveld. As the vehicle traverses the park, participants have the opportunity to encounter the Big 5—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhinoceros—in their natural habitat. The skilled guides share their extensive knowledge of the park’s ecosystem, pointing out various species of flora and fauna and providing insights into the behaviors and interactions of the wildlife.

The game drive is not only a quest to spot the Big 5 but also an exploration of the park’s rich biodiversity, including a myriad of other fascinating creatures and bird species.

The magic of the Greater Kruger National Park lies in the unpredictability of wildlife sightings, creating a sense of anticipation and awe as each moment unfolds.

The drive often includes stops at strategic points, allowing participants to appreciate the surroundings, capture breathtaking views, and learn more about the interconnectedness of the ecosystem. Whether it’s the majesty of a lion pride, the grace of a leopard in a tree, or the sheer size of an elephant herd, a game drive in the Greater Kruger National Park promises an unforgettable journey into the heart of untamed Africa.

As your remarkable journey concludes, relish in another splendid sunrise in the African bush. Commence your day early with a refreshing coffee on a nature walk, soaking in the serene surroundings. Following breakfast, anticipate your collection for a seamless transfer back to Hoedspruit’s Eastgate Airport, marking the commencement of your onward journey.
