ITINERARY

Day 1 Kruger Park South Africa
We depart Johannesburg, the city of Gold and head off on an adventure of a lifetime. A truly unique African experience unfolds as we enter the Kruger Park via our private concession within Southern Kruger. The Park is home to 150 species of mammal, including Africa’s famed “Big Five”. The staggering 507 bird species, plus the wide variety of insects, reptiles and amphibians, make this the ultimate wildlife experience. We board open safari vehicles and make our way into the Park for our afternoon game drive. Game viewing continues into the late afternoon before making our way to our secluded safari camp. After settling into camp, we venture out on an exciting evening game drive. Returning to camp after dark, we enjoy a boma dinner in the form of a traditional Shangaan culture evening. Accommodation at our private camp situated in a wilderness area away from the normal commercial camps. The Mdluli concession is part of a joint initiative between the Mdluli Community on the outskirts of the Kruger Park and The Bundu Safari Company. The purpose of this initiative is to enhance local community development and to enable the local villagers to get involved in Tourism and Conservation efforts. (LD)
