Kruger National Park
It is the oldest and the biggest of South Africa’s twenty-one national parks. It covers a massive 18989 square kilometres, extending about 350 kilometres from North to South and 60 kilometres from east to West. That is just shy of the size of Belgium. The diversity, density, and quality of its wildlife make it one of the most enticing national parks on the planet.
It is not only rich in flora and fauna, but there is evidence of early humans going back to over 1.5 million years ago. There is evidence of ancient villages, art and archaeological remains dating back to ancient times. We can find up to two hundred places considered world heritage sites due to the presence of rock art and other structures.
Our typical safari tour in the Kruger National Park takes the whole day. Our trained and seasoned guides take you around in air conditioned 4×4 vehicles for a day of unforgettable game viewing experience. Elephants, rhinos, buffaloes, lions, leopards, zebras, giraffes, impalas, kudus, hippo etc are some of the animals you will encounter in the Kruger.
The National Park is extensive as we mentioned earlier. Our breakfast and lunch are taken in the open savannah camps. This makes eating itself special considering the location. Just imagine how many people around the world have such an experience!

Panorama Tour
The panorama tour is a 160-kilometer route in the northeastern province of Mpumalanga that meanders around the Drakensberg Mountains. It is considered the highest route in the country because it passes through Tom’s Pass which is more than two thousand meters high. During the route, you will see canyons, valleys, gorges, waterfalls, and wooded areas that will take your breath away.
One of the most breathtaking parts of this route is found in the canyon of the river Blyde. The passing of water around this canyon over millions of years has designed a spectacular site. We also organise boat tours around the river Blyde to marvel at this eye-catching site. The river tour also introduces us to the Bourkes Luck Potholes. These naturally formed potholes are another amazing work of nature. During this tour, we will also see a lot of rock cataracts like those of Berlin, Mac Mac, Bridal, or Lisbon Veil.
One of the key sights is the “windows of gods” that give you a panoramic view towards the Kruger National Park. During the whole route, you will be accompanied by experienced guides native to the area. It is a tour of almost the whole day, breakfast and lunch will be provided on the way. The latter is in the iconic little town of Graskop.
The panorama tour includes
- Entrance to the main points of interest
- Guide
- Lunch in Graskop

Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre
Founded at the end of the twentieth century, the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre has converted into a symbol of wildlife conservation for specific species of wild animals that are endangered. The center focuses on the breeding, rearing, and maintenance of the bloodlines of cheetahs and rhinos. They teach visitors about wildlife conservation and how life is like in the African savannah.
One of the most interesting things about the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre, is their return of some animals to the wild. This is done in an orderly and monitored manner to ensure the adaptation of the animal in the bush. The animals are only released in protected areas where they have a better chance of survival.
Although this centre specialises in the breeding and care of rhinos and cheetahs, we also find other animals like wild dogs, civets, genets, white-tailed mongooses and southern ground hornbills.
The centre adheres to the 100% non-contact and non-interference with the animals for security reasons for both the animals and the visitors. While at the centre, you can learn first hand all the facts about rhinos, cheetahs, wild dogs and other animals kept there. All the tours inside the centre are provided by experienced and knowledgeable guides who explain everything you have to know about the project and the animals.
This tour includes:
- Travel in an airconditioned opensided 4×4 vehicle
- Entrance into the centre
- Guided Tour
- 2 to 3 hour tour of the centre

Maholoholo Rehab Centre
Situated just a few kilometers from our camp at Tshukudu Game Lodge, we find the unique Moholoholo Rehabilitation Centre for animals. This center serves as a rehabilitation place for abandoned and injured animals all over South Africa. Its aim is to treat and reintroduce these animals in the wild whenever necessary. Some animals are never reintroduced into the wild due to their conditions that may be unsuitable for life in the bush.
The animals that remain at the center for the rest of their lives serve as learning examples for the visitors. We get to learn all the facts about them and their main threats in the wild.
The physical interaction with the animals is controlled and limited. The center follows the security and treatment of animal protocols set up by SATSA that became binding in 2019.
The Maholoholo Rehab Centre is home to a wide variety of animals. Among them are :

The Blyde river canyon is one of the biggest in the world, and the greenest canyon on earth. The passing of water over millions of years has created amazing geographical structures that will take your breath away and that converted this area into a national park.
One of the highlights of the Blyde River boat trip is the arrival at the Kadishi Tufa waterfall. It is considered the second largest Tufa waterfall in the world. Dropping 200m from its limestone shelf to the Blyde dam below. When we talk about the tufa waterfall we refer to those created by a large amount of water with lime deposited on the rocks.
