Day 1 : Depart Johannesburg for 3 nights Jaci's Safari Lodge, Madikwe Game Reserve, Fully Inclusive
This morning you take your scheduled safari flight from Johannesburg to the Madikwe Game Reserve for your three night safari at Jaci's Safari Lodge or Tree Lodge. Safari Lodge, with only eight luxurious canvas-under-thatch suites, has a relaxed and intimate safari ambience. Each en suite bathroom has natural rock walls, a ?rock? bath and outdoor safari shower. The exquisite thatched main lodge has an open plan lounge with central fireplace, bar and library. Dinners are usually in the bush or in the boma under the stars. Jaci?s Tree Lodge provides a delightful and authentic experience with eight ?tree houses? on stilts, up to 4 metres from the ground. An open plan, en-suite bathroom with an enormous stone bath and outdoor shower allow you to enjoy your forest surrounds. Relax, on the deck in front of your room, in the main lodge or wander to the forest pool to cool off. Children are very welcome at Jaci?s and are specially catered for.

Day 2 : On safari at Madikwe
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. Drives are in the early morning and late afternoon when game is most likely to be active.

You generally enjoy a game drive immediately after early morning tea and coffee, as the animals rise early to hunt in the cool of the day. The two to three hour drive finishes in time for a late breakfast, which will be keenly appreciated after your early morning start! After breakfast, you can go on an optional guided walk into the bush with a ranger, or you can simply relax around the lodge during the heat of the day. A late afternoon game drive will introduce you to some of the nocturnal animals and their predators before enjoying at atmospheric dinner back at the lodge.

Day 4 : Flight back to Johannesburg
After a final early morning game drive and brunch, you board your scheduled safari flight back to Johannesburg.
