Day to Day Itinerary

Days 1-3

Search for the Big Five in Kruger Park

Your journey starts in Johannesburg where you'll board a scheduled charter flight from OR Tambo International Airport to Hoedspruit Airport. Here you'll be met and transferred to Arathusa Safari Lodge. This small, family-run lodge is located in the isolated northern wilderness of the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve - bordering the Kruger National Park - and overlooks a large lake where resident hippos wade. These isolated, yet comfortable surroundings form the perfect place from which to view the incredible African wild.

Spend your days on 4x4 safari game drives, searching for the Big 5, abundant birdlife and many other animals. Gain a different perspective of the African bush on optional bush walks and return to the lodge to relax, unwind and drink in this beautiful, wild landscape.

Day 4

Return to Johannesburg

After one last early morning game drive, you'll say goodbye to your friendly hosts at Arathusa and transfer back to Hoedspruit Airport, where you'll catch your flight back to Johannesburg. On arrival, you'll be met and transferred to Peermont Metcourt at Emperor's Palace where you'll spend the night.

Days 5-6

Enjoy adventure at the Falls

Return to OR Tambo in the morning to catch a scheduled flight to Victoria Falls Airport in Zimbabwe. On arrival you'll be met and transferred by road to Victoria Falls Hotel. This grand hotel is situated close to Victoria Falls and the vibrant town centre, and boasts magnificent tropical gardens and luxurious accommodation. Catch your first glimpse of the thundering Falls from these gardens.

The next few days are yours to enjoy all the fun and excitement that the Victoria Falls has to offer. Go white water rafting down the mighty Zambezi River or bungee jump from the Victoria Falls Bridge. Take microlight and helicopter flights to view the Falls from above, or take a more relaxed approach as you explore the surrounds on an elephant-back safari.

Day 7
