4-Day Kruger and Swaziland (Eswatini) Explorer

Setting off from Johannesburg at 08h30, we embark on a journey towards the southern edges of Kruger National Park. On our journey, we will pause for a lunch break in Schoemanskloof (own expense), a remarkable spot among the seven stunning locations along the Highlands Meander of Mpumalanga. After our lunch stop, we continue our journey until we reach our destination located along the banks of the Crocodile River.

After a swift check-in at the guesthouse, we set off towards Mjejane Private Game Reserve for an immersive afternoon walking safari in the heart of big five territory.

We spend the night just outside the park at a lodge overlooking the Crocodile River and the southern section of the Kruger, providing us with the perfect chance to easily access the park tomorrow to see animals and begin to immerse ourselves in the beauty and wildlife of this country.

Main Attraction: Kruger National Park (South Africa)
Accommodation: River House Lodge

Today we rise early, eager to enter the Southern Section of the Kruger National Park at the earliest opportunity, ready for a full day of wildlife exploration. The Southern section of the park provides a chance to observe various animal species, including Rhinos, Wild Dogs, herds of Buffalo, and Elephants, along with other predators such as Lions and Hyenas, as the area typically has more water, drawing in a greater number of animals.

Our day is devoted to exploring the area in search of these animals; however, we will make regular stops at various rest camps for some leg stretches and comfort breaks, as well as at some waterholes along the way. Today’s lunch will be enjoyed in the park (own expense)

Later in the afternoon, after a full day of spotting wildlife big and small, we will leisurely make our way out of the park and head to our accommodation for the night.
