Itinerary

Day 1 - Afternoon Sunset Drive

You will be picked up from Johannesburg's OR Tambo International Airport and taken to Dumela Tented Camp, where you will check in to your glamping site at 14:00.

After some time to rest and enjoy the facilities, you will depart at 15:00 for a 3-hour open vehicle afternoon game drive in the Greater Kruger Blue Canyon in an open safari vehicle. You will get the opportunity to see some of the park's most famous wildlife, including elephants, giraffes, zebras, and antelopes, before returning to camp at around 19:00 for a delicious boma fire meal and a peaceful night under the stars.

Day 2 - Full Day Kruger National Park

You will get up early to be ready at 05:30 (when predators like lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas are most active) for a full-day safari into Kruger National Park.

Your days may proceed in one of two ways: an early departure for Kruger National Park with a bush breakfast along the route and an earlier return, or having breakfast at the lodge first, departing and returning later.

The exact departure times will be communicated to you the night before as it will be decided according to animal activity at the time to give you the best opportunity for game viewing. Your Kruger Park safari will last 7 to 8 hours, so you should be back at the camp with enough time to relax before dinner by the fire.

You will repeat this for the following two days, when you will hopefully be able to cross some more creatures off your bucket list. You will also see new landscapes and habitats.

You will have dinner under the stars (with that complementary glass of wine) every night, where you will share your experiences with others and make new friends.

Day 3 - Full Day Panorama Route Tour

You'll wake up early to be ready for your unforgettable Panorama Route tour, bringing a change of scenery to your exciting 5 day safari.

The Panorama tour will take you along an exhilarating and iconic route where you will witness the following unforgettable landmarks:

Berlin Falls
God’s Window

3 Rondawels
Blyde River Canyon
