Mpumalanga, the “place of the rising sun,” is the first province in South Africa to welcome the day, and the best Kruger safaris start before sunrise. The cool early hours are perfect for spotting predators and other wildlife. After a short drive, your guide leads you through the park’s top viewing areas in search of the Big 5 and plains game.
Breakfast packs are provided by the lodge, with a stop about three hours in for coffee and a quick break before continuing through the Kruger’s incredible landscapes, past rivers, bushveld, and open plains, all alive with wildlife.
Around midday, you’ll stop at a rest camp for lunch (own account) with time to browse the curio shop or enjoy a cold drink and ice cream. The drive back to the lodge wraps up around 15:30–16:00, leaving you time to relax, take a swim, and enjoy a delicious dinner.
