4-Day Kruger Park Treehouse Safari Itinerary
We will pick you up from any guesthouse, hotel, or the OR Tambo Airport in Johannesburg in an air-conditioned car and drive you through the Highveld farmlands to the Lowveld and Tremisana Lodge.
Upon arrival, you will have time to relax in your air-conditioned chalet, swim in the pool, or unwind at the lodge's bar.
In the late afternoon, you will board an open 4x4 safari vehicle for your first sunset safari trip with a licensed guide. The guide will allow the exhilarating experience of exploring the diverse wildlife and plants while viewing the African sunset.
After dark, we will use strong stoplights to detect the nocturnal species that wander the African wilderness.
Dinner is a bush braai (BBQ) in the Marula Tree Boma, located deep in the bush.
Main destination: Balule Nature Reserve (Greater Kruger).
Accommodation: Tremisana Game Lodge
You wake up before daybreak to begin an exciting day in Africa. We will transport you to a secluded location in the private wildlife reserve for a 4-hour guided bush walk in the wilderness. Your appropriately equipped and experienced guide will lead you into the bush at a speed that is manageable in search of Big Five members and other species.
You will enjoy the excitement of following Africa's huge animals until you get near enough to get a good shot.
You will return to the lodge in time for breakfast, following which you may unwind and catch up on some much-needed sleep, swim in the pool, or read a magazine. You may also visit the lodge's game-watching hide, which overlooks the Tremisana Dam.
