My Favourite Adventure – Mpumalanga Winter Treat (11 Days)

  • As you land in Johannesburg, I will be there to greet you and help with your luggage. Then, just sit back and relax as our journey begins!
  • We’ll drive through Schoemanskloof Valley, stopping off at Kilmorna Manor. Enjoy two nights in this magnificent Tudor mansion set on a nature reserve where you can delight in gentle walks and horseback riding, to pampering massages and fascinating cultural visits.
  • Another drive will take us to the world-famous Sabi Sand Game Reserve where two nights will be spent in luxury at &Beyond Dulini Lodge. Your days will be adventurous, with Big Five game drives and interpretive bush walks, and at night you will be wrapped in romance.
  • We’ll explore &Beyond Ngala Private Game Reserve, where I spent many years guiding. I know this Reserve intimately and I will take you to all of my favourite spots. We’ll spend three relaxing nights at one of my favourite safari camps, &Beyond Ngala Tented Camp.
  • A scenic journey will take us through the exquisitely beautiful forests, waterfalls and mountain formations of Blyde River Canyon.
  • Enjoy two nights of comfort and splendour at Cybele Forest Lodge and Health Spa.
  • Before we head back to Johannesburg for your flight home, we’ll spend a night in Dullstroom, South Africa’s premier flyfishing destination.
  • Or let me help you tailormake something even more extraordinary!
