DAY 1
This adventure accentuates an authentic African Safari experience from start to finish. You will be collected from your Johannesburg hotel by a professional driver. From Johannesburg, head east via Nelspruit, White River and Hazyview to spectacular Mpumalanga. At Protea Hotel Kruger Gate you will board your open safari vehicle and start your adventure into the park where your day will end at Satara where you will end your day with dinner set in a real African Ambiance.
Satara rest camp – Dinner, bed and breakfast

DAY 2
Depart Satara Camp in Kruger National Park and commence your adventurous journey north-east to ‘Parque Nacional do Limpopo’ crossing both the Olifants and Letaba rivers. Game viewing en-route, with the possibility of seeing the “Big 5”, is a highlight as you travel to the international border post at Giriyondo. Here you enter the 1,1 million hectare Moçambiquan sector of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Peace Park and follow the gravel road to Machampane Wilderness Camp, passing the elephant release boma and crossing the rocky bed of the Machampane river. This luxurious en-suite tented camp, nestled in the trees on the banks of the Machampane River will be your home for the next three nights in this unspoilt wilderness area. Arrival is timed to allow you to settle in, and then for those wishing to immediately experience their bush surroundings, a short afternoon game-walk returning to camp as the sun sets. Enjoy dinner on the dining deck.

DAY 3
Awake to the early morning call of the abundant birdlife and begin the day with coffee and rusks on the viewing deck. Then set off on a leisurely walk in the company of an experienced field guide and an armed game ranger. They assist you in interpreting the signs of the bushveld and in identifying the many species of fauna, flora, birds and reptiles to whom this National Park is home. You are very likely to come across the spoor (tracks) of one of the Big 5 species that live in this area and perhaps even encounter them whilst on your walk. Return to camp for “brunch” under the trees and then an afternoon siesta or just relax on the deck of your tent watching the variety of birds that inhabit the trees and river banks. After dinner you will fall asleep in the comfort of your tent.
