Itinerary

Day 1 Johannesburg to Limpopo

Skip the drive with a short flight to Hoedspruit, where your ranger will escort you to your Balule safari lodge. Enjoy a warm welcome, lunch, and time to relax by the pool or on the viewing deck. After high tea, head out on your first thrilling game drive. Spot elephants, lions, and giraffes as the sun sets, then toast the moment with bush sundowners. Return for a magical dinner under the stars before drifting off to sleep to the sounds of the wild

Day 2

Wake to coffee and rusks before a sunrise game drive—prime time to spot big cats and witness the bush awaken. After a hearty breakfast, unwind by the pool, browse handcrafted curios, or join a guided bush walk. In the afternoon, enjoy high tea before your evening drive, watching the savannah shift as nocturnal creatures stir. End with a fireside boma dinner under the stars—flames crackling, stories flowing, and the wild all around you.

Day 3

Begin your final day with one last sunrise game drive, capturing the beauty of the bush and any final wildlife sightings. Return to the lodge for a hearty breakfast, then pack up and check out. Depending on your travel option, depart by road to Johannesburg or transfer to Hoedspruit Airport for your flight. Arrive at O.R. Tambo International Airport in the afternoon, with time to reflect on your unforgettable safari before your onward journey.
