Luxury Kruger & Mozambique Odyssey

Begin your journey in Nelspruit with a flight from Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport to the airstrip in the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve. You'll be met and transferred to the luxurious Lion Sands River Lodge; keep your eyes open - this is big game country.

Enjoy some of Africa's most exclusive and rewarding game viewing on morning and afternoon drives as you explore this spectacular wildlife reserve for the Big 5 and hosts of other classic African animals. And since the Sabi Sand is a private reserve, you'll also enjoy night drives, guided bush walks and off-roading for extra-close views of Sabi's legendary wildlife.

Relax between game drives on a lounger by the swimming pool or on the deck overlooking the river. You can also treat yourself to a wellness treatment or massage at the lodge's health spa.

After breakfast this morning you will transfer to The Residence, an elegant boutique hotel in the elite suburb of Houghton in Johannesburg, also home to Nelson Mandela.

Enjoy personalised service at this luxurious 5-star hotel featuring well-manicured lawns, a tennis court, refreshing swimming pools or pamper yourself with a rejuvenating treatment in the spa, before enjoying a pre-drink in the Piano Bar before sitting down for an expertly-prepared dinner.

Transfer back to the airport for a 1.5hr flight to Vilanculos, and your helicopter flight to Azura Lodge, on Benguerra Island. Spend 5 nights in this luxurious accommodation, with the beach on your doorstep.

Go diving in the Bazaruto Marine National Park, where you can see the astoundingly diverse marine life; or set off to sea and try to catch a giant black marlin or wahoo. However, possibly one of the best things to do, is absolutely nothing. Settle onto the plump cushions shaded by thatched beachside salas, and watch dhows sail by on the translucent sea.

Fly back to Vilanculos, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, for your connecting flight to Johannesburg and continue with your onward travel arrangements.
