 Day 1 : 2 nights, Kings Camp, Timbavati, Full board and Game drives
On arrival at the Johannesburg Airport you board your domestic flight to the Lowveld where you are transferred to your private game lodge for your two night stay and game viewing experience. Kings Camp is a real 'find' hidden away deep in the Timbavati Private Game Reserve. This delightful colonial-styled lodge has 10 air-conditioned thatched suites.
You enjoy open-vehicle game drives with an experienced ranger and tracker who work together to give you a deeper understanding of the wildlife and the natural cycles of the bush. Their bush knowledge, practical skills and love of nature promise you informative, exciting and rewarding encounters with the wildlife. The following morning as the animals rise early, to hunt in the cool of the day, you take your game drive immediately after early morning tea and coffee. The drive finishes in time for a late breakfast which will be keenly appreciated after your early morning activity. You relax around the lodge during the heat of the day or take a bush walk with a ranger (see Day 3).

Day 3 : 2 nights, Vuyatela, Sabi Sands, Full Board & Game Drives
Vuyatela in the Sabi Sands private game reserve, is Djuma's luxury camp with 8 air-conditioned 'kayas'. Vuyatela has an innovative design bringing in the diverse architectural styles seen in contemporary African villages. The main lodge is beautiful, with an expansive teak deck overlooking an active waterhole where resident elephants often come to drink. It has some quirky features: a bird watching tower, a 'shebeen' bar, a gym and relaxation room and a giant aquarium.
A similar pattern of game drives is on offer whilst at Vuyatela. After an early morning drive and breakfast, you can opt for a guided walk into the bush with a ranger. This affords the ultimate, close-to-the-wild experience, and a chance to focus on the smaller bush inhabitants including birds, insects and butterflies. You can also discover the interesting worlds of trees, grasses, flowers, geology - of course, occasionally big game can be seen on walks.
