YOUR ITINERARY:

Day 1: Johannesburg to Pilanesberg National Park – South AfricaLeaving Johannesburg at about 11:00 on this safari we arrive at our lodge in the Pilanesberg National Park just in time for lunch. After lunch we are free to relax, enjoy afternoon tea and then embark on our first thrilling game drive.

We set off in search of Africa's Big 5, lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo and elephant, along with other wildlife. We travel in specialized safari vehicles ideal for great visibility and absorbing the sounds and smells of the bush.

Back at our lodge a delicious dinner is served, weather permitting,　under an African night sky, littered with stars. Evening drinks can be purchased from the fully stocked bar, including an excellent selection of fine wines.　
Day 2: Pilanesberg National Park – South Africa We are up early and after a reviving cup of coffee or tea and snacks, we set out on a game drive. This is the best time of day for game viewing, as the animals are on the move eating and drinking before the heat of the day drives them to seek shade and rest. 　Often there are sightings of lions still on the move after the previous night's hunt.

After our exciting start to the day we return to the lodge for a well deserved, mouth watering breakfast. 　Then there's time to relax, nap, read, swim or have a pampering spa treatment until it's time for lunch at 14:00.

Lunch is followed by an afternoon game drive that continues into the early evening, for as the sun sets darkness falls quickly and the nocturnal animals are on the move.

Returning to the safari lodge, we freshen up and then enjoy a tasty al fresco dinner. The evening is spent around the campfire taking in the sounds of the African bush, recollecting the day’s wildlife sightings and relaxing under starry skies.
Day 3: Pilanesberg to Johannesburg – South Africa
We set out early again on this, our last day, after some refreshing tea or coffee and snacks. After a rewarding game drive, viewing the animals at their most active, we return to the lodge for a hearty breakfast.

Departing from the lodge at about 12h00 we make our back to Johannesburg, bringing this unforgettable 3-Day Pilanesberg Safari to a close.
