A Week in the African Bush (7Days)

We asked ourselves: “What is the ideal way for our customers to fully experience the African bush, in comfort and at reasonable cost?” It had to be completely authentic, not 'touristy'. It had to be comfortable - no camping or compulsory bundu bashing! It had to include some of the best game-viewing potential possible on the planet. And it had to embrace 'the African bush' experience in full - not simply 'the Big 5' but also the small animals, the trees, plants and insects, the beauty of the landscape, the companionship, time to dream, and so on. This 7-day tour is the result. It combines world-class game viewing; a chance to learn from top-class rangers and guides about all aspects of the bush; and - time to relax.
We fly in style from CPT or JHB straight into and out of the Lowveld (so no changing planes at JHB airport!). The exact itinerary may vary from tour to
tour (discuss details with us) but is always a blend of two different ways of experiencing the bush. On the first part of the tour you will be travelling
comfortably by minibus with your Landscape guide through the southern Kruger Park, game-spotting, enjoying the magnificent scenery, and staying in camps such as Lower Sabi and Pretoriuskop. The second part will be in private game reserves in the Sabi Sand area, such as Inyati and Idube lodges. The Sabi Sand area is unfenced on the Kruger Park boundary. The private lodges offer a true bush experience with chalet accommodation and delicious open-air meals. We do a lot of open vehicle game viewing, and are able to follow the 'the Big 5' through the bush, offering superb viewing opportunities.
