The complete itinerary

6 days / 5 nights,
day by day.

A real day-by-day route, always ready to be tailored around your dates, pace and choice of camps.

Day 01 - 03

Capetown

Upon arrival at Cape Town International Airport, you will be met airside for a seamless Meet & Greet, receiving personal assistance through customs and luggage collection before your private transfer to your accommodation. During your stay, you will discover the iconic highlights of the Mother City—from the bustling V&A Waterfront, historic Robben Island, and vibrant Bo-Kaap to the lush Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, Table Mountain, the South African Museum, and Company's Garden. Your exploration extends along the dramatic Cape Peninsula, taking in Chapman’s Peak Drive, Cape Point, and the famous African penguin colony at Boulders Beach.

To make your journey even more memorable, you can tailor your itinerary with unique regional experiences, such as a hands-on Cape Malay cooking class, a guided city walking tour or Table Mountain hike, canopy ziplining, sea kayaking along the coast, or a vintage sidecar excursion.

Overnight at Abbey Manor Luxury Guest House

Day 04 - 05

Kruger National Park

After your transfer to Cape Town Airport, board a direct flight to Skukuza Airport (own arrangement), where your driver will meet and transfer you to the lodge. This afternoon, embark on your first game drive in this Big 5 reserve. Morning and evening safaris offer close encounters—often within 5 to 10 meters—with habituated wildlife, including big cats on a kill.

Night drives, guided by a tracker with a spotlight, increase your chances of spotting nocturnal animals and hunting predators like lions and leopards. Between drives, enjoy wildlife sightings right from the lodge's waterhole, where elephants, baboons, and predators frequently gather. Your stay is complemented by delicious brunches, al fresco lunches, and social dinners, ending each evening with drinks around the campfire under the starlit sky.

Overnight at Idube Game Reserve

Day 06

Kruger National Park

After a final morning game drive followed by breakfast, your driver will return you to Skukuza Airport for your flight to Johannesburg or Cape Town (own arrangement).

End of services.
