4-Day Eco Lodge Kruger Safari

We travel straight to your lodge in Hazyview, arriving around midday. After settling in, you can relax, enjoy a light lunch, take a swim, or wander along the lodge’s scenic walking trails. At 16h00pm we set off for a spectacular Sunset–Night Safari in the Kruger National Park. In winter, the earlier sunset means more time under the stars, while summer guests enjoy golden skies and glowing horizons. We return around 20:00 for a hearty dinner and a well-deserved rest.

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.

We enter the Kruger before sunrise, while the air is still cool and the wildlife is most active. After a short drive, your guide will lead you into prime areas for sightings of the Big 5, plains game, and predators. Breakfast packs are provided, with a stop about three hours in for a quick meal, coffee, and a bathroom break before continuing through the Kruger’s varied eco zones, each home to its own wildlife. Your guide explores different parts of the park each day to give you a fresh experience. Later, you’ll stop for lunch at a rest camp (own account), where you can browse the curio shop or enjoy a cold drink before heading back to the lodge. You’ll arrive around 15:30–16:00, with time to relax, swim, and unwind before dinner.

On your final morning, we depart before sunrise, once again. Your guide will focus on finding any animals still on your wish list, especially lions and leopards, which are most active in the early hours. No two safaris are ever the same, and guides explore different routes and regions depending on the season to maximise your sightings. After a short breakfast and coffee stop, we continue the safari before returning to the lodge around 11:00. You’ll have time to freshen up and say goodbye to your guide before the shuttle departs at 12:30, arriving at Johannesburg’s OR Tambo Airport or nearby lodges between 17:00 and 18:00.
