Day 1: We collect our clients from all hotels, guesthouses and private homes in Gauteng as well as from Johannesburg Airport. We travel via the highveld farmlands to the picturesque Lowveld with its subtropical climate. We drive to Tremisana Game Lodge in the Balule Section of the Kruger National Park. After a short break, during which you may unwind at the bar, have a swim or relax in the tropical gardens, we board the open Landcruiser for a Sunset Drive. Your guide will show you various animals and birds and after darkness falls, use spotlights to locate nocturnal species. Dinner will be a typical South African meal in our Boma. Overnight in comfortable air-conditioned en-suite thatch-roofed chalets.
Day 2:
We travel to the Orpen Gate of Kruger Park where we board our open Gameviewer. The absence of windows and elevated vantage position allow for excellent photographic oppportunities. You will have an amazing chance not only to view game but also to listen to and smell the African bush and its denizens. There will be regular stops at picnic spots, rest camps and places of interest. After a full day of game-viewing and bird-watching, we return to Tremisana for dinner and overnight.
Day 3:
An armed ranger will escort you on a guided bush walk and early gamedrive. You will have spoor and scats identified and enjoy the thrill of walking in the veld. After breakfast, drive via the scenic highlights of the Panorama Route visiting the Three Rondawels , and the Blyde River Canyon. Return to Gauteng in the late afternoon. Airport dropoff by arrangement.
NOTE: For people that are unable to do the walk, we replace Day Two with a full day safari on an open vehicle in Kruger.
Tremisana is the largest and leading lodge in the Balule section of Kruger Park. The presence of lions, elephants and buffalo necessitates the maintaining of an electric fence around the camp. A troop of Vervet Monkeys have learned how to avoid being shocked and have made Tremisana their permanent home. Their antics never fail to amuse and enthrall our guests.
