Day 1, Johannesburg to Hlane Game Sanctuary

After leaving bustling Johannesburg and travelling through scenic Mpumalanga, we reach Swaziland and Hlane Royal National Park. The Highveld gives way to Lowveld and to the bush land that wildlife love the most.

Day 2, Hlane National Park

A free day to partake in some of the many optional activities on offer...if you want to.... such as Mountain Biking, Game Drives or a Lion Tour.

Day 3, Hlane National Park to Praia Do Tofo

Today we cross into Mozambique and head north through beautiful coastal scenery arriving at our camp in the late afternoon. Feel the heat and humidity turn up a notch but trade that off with the beautiful bush turning into coastal palm trees and white sand. Time to relax on that sand before dinner!

Day 4, Praia do Tofo

Tofo is reputably the best dive spot on the east coast of Africa and Scuba Diving is just one of the many optional activities to keep you busy today. Try fishing, snorkeling, surfing or chilling out on the beach with a cold cocktail.

Day 5, Praia do Tofo to Vilanculos

Continuing along the coast we drive north to Vilanculos and prepare for our excursion to the Bazaruto Archipelago.

Day 6, Vilanculos to Bazaruto

We sail on a traditional Dhow to the stunning islands of the Bazaruto Archipelago where we can snorkel, swim and soak up the sun. Tropical waters and gorgeous coral and reef life make for a amazing day!

Day 7, Bazaruto to Vilanculos

After a night sleeping on board we return to Vilanculos and can partake in numerous activities such as horse riding or snorkelling.

Day 8, Vilanculos to Inhambane

Heading south through the beautiful coconut plantations brings us to the old European settlement of Inhambane arriving in the early afternoon.

/images/flickr/Photo_of_Inhambane_Mozambique_/3361729685_s.jpg

Day 9, Inhambane

A free day to enjoy some of the optional activities available. Try your hand at Scuba Diving, Quad Biking, Fishing, Horse Riding or take a Boat Cruise on the bay. If that sounds like too much work then just relax on the white sand beaches with a good book or your journal.

Day 10, Inhambane to Maputo

Leaving the white sand beaches and laid back vibe of Inhambane we travel further south and discover the hustle and bustle of the capital - Maputo. Spend the afternoon exploring this historic African city.

/images/flickr/Photo_of_Maputo/3343391227_s.jpg

Day 11, Maputo to Kruger National Park

We depart from the hustle and bustle of Maputo, cross back into South Africa and enter Kruger National Park - home of the Big 5! We spend our time game driving before arriving at our camp. Optional, guided Night and Dawn Game Drives are available.

Day 12, Kruger National Park

Game Drives and animal spotting take up our day with the odd stop for lunch or a swim if the weather allows.

/images/flickr/Photo_of_Kruger_NP_South_Africa_/2808736838_s.jpg

Day 13, Kruger National Park to Timbavati

We leave Kruger and head for one of the most stunning scenic spots in South Africa - the well named 'Panorama Route'. We visit a Cheetah Breeding Centre and Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre where we can visit some amazing animals up close!

Day 14, Timbavati to Johannesburg

Travelling along the Panorama Route via the awe inspiring Blyde River Canyon, God's Window and Bourke's Luck Potholes, brings us back to Johannesburg and the end of our tour.
