Before sunset arrive at your Rest Camp and book into an air-conditioned chalet with shower / toilet and screens to prevent insects. Enjoy dinner in the privatised restaurant.

Stop for a hearty breakfast then continue to a waterhole to see hippos, crocodiles & birds. Return to camp for an afternoon siesta or swim. Later board the National Parks open safari vehicle with spotlights for a night drive ( duration 3 hours ) to search for predators & other nocturnal species. Overnight & dinner at your Rest Camp listening to the sounds of hyena & often lion.

Depart from camp for another memorable early morning game drive to look for elusive species such as leopard often found lying in trees . Breakfast then exit Kruger Park via a southern gate & proceed towards the old gold mining town of Barberton, through the mountains at Nelshoogte and then past forests & timber mills to Piet Retief. After a lunch break, continue south with Swaziland on your left & enter KwaZulu-Natal famous for its tribal culture, sugarcane plantations and game reserves such as Hluhluwe which is the oldest in South Africa.
