The tour departs early morning from Johannesburg. We stop en-route for breakfast (own cost), after which we continue to Nelspruit, if we have pickups there, and then to the Kapama Cheetah Centre (Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre). We spend the afternoon doing a guided tour of the Centre with one of their guides. The centre is home to many endangered species, such as wild dog, cheetah, lion, vultures, king cheetah and many more. A short drive takes us to our exclusive camp close to Kruger national park. There is a large variety of wildlife such as zebra, giraffe, blue wildebeest, impala, bushbuck, nyala and much more. We have an night drive in the neighbouring big five game reserve which is part of the Greater Kruger National Park. We return to our camp, from where is is common to hear hyenas, lion and jackal, while relaxing around a camp fire. Please note that we might do the night drive the following night.
