Joanesburgo

Look for iconic African animals such as lions and elephants on game drives through Madikwe Game Reserve and enjoy a conservation experience while luxuriating at the Impodimo Game Lodge between adventures.

Nota: This program begins in Johannesburg, therefore, arriving flights need to be booked into the O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg.

DIA 1

Upon arriving at Johannesburg’s O.R. Tambo International Airport, you will be met and transferred to the 54 on Bath hotel in the leafy suburb of Rosebank. After settling in and freshening up, you will have dinner at the hotel, where you will spend the evening.

DIA 2

After breakfast and check-out at the hotel, you will transfer with an English-speaking representative to the Impodimo Game Lodge, which sits on a rocky ridge within the Madikwe Game Reserve. A box lunch will be served during the drive.

Following check-in at the lodge, you will have time to relax, freshen up and enjoy afternoon tea before heading into the bush on an afternoon game drive. A skilled tracker will accompany you in the open, 4x4 vehicle to increase your chances of observing animals such as elephants, rhinos and lions. Somewhere along the way, you will pause in the bush for a sundowner.

Once you return to the lodge, dinner will be served. A ranger will escort you back to your accommodations for the evening, as there isn’t a fence around the lodge and the animals roam freely.

DIA 3

Following an early-morning wake-up, you will have the unique opportunity to join a conservation safari. In fact, a percentage of the proceeds from your purchase of this program are donated by the lodge to the Madikwe Rhino Fund. The hands-on experience involves working closely with veterinarians and the capture team. The exact nature of the experience will depend on what is needed that particular morning.

Back at the lodge, you will have time to relax, enjoy the facilities and perhaps learn the art of tracking animals in the bush with a ranger. You could also head into the Elephant Hide, a wonderfully comfortable air-conditioned room that allows you to view elephants up-close at a watering hole without being detected.

An afternoon game drive follows, during which you will explore other areas of the reserve. As during the day before, a stop will be made for sundowners in the bush.

Returning to the lodge for dinner, you will have the rest of the evening to do as you please before retiring.

DIA 4

The day will be spent much like the previous day with the exception of a morning game drive instead of another conservation experience. A second game drive follows in the afternoon, a time when the animals are just as active as they are in the morning. A tracker will accompany you to point out the animals and answer questions you may have regarding their behaviors and characteristics.

Sundowners will be served before returning to the lodge for dinner and the evening.

DIA 5

Following a leisurely breakfast, you will check-out of the lodge. If time permits, you will head into the bush on one, last morning game drive.

An English-speaking guide will then join you for the transfer to Johannesburg, during which a box lunch will be served. After arriving at the O.R. Tambo International Airport, you will fly to Cape Town International Airport, where another English-speaking guide will assist with your transfer to the cruise ship for embarkation.

KwaZulu Natal, also known as KZN, is steeped in history and littered with battlefields from the struggles of the Zulu Civil Wars, to their clashes with the Boers and the British. This picturesque area features sweeping views of rolling hills scattered with rugged rock formations. The most well-known and well-visited sites are those of the legendary Battles of Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift took place on the same day, lodging the Zulus firmly at the top of great warrior nations.

Spacious and luxurious en-suite cottages have private verandahs, air-conditioning, and both inside and outside showers. The lodge has a swimming pool, library, and excellent museum.

The battle of Rorke’s Drift is one of the most famous battles in the English-speaking world and was later the subject of the 1964 Hollywood blockbuster, Zulu.

A brave small band of British soldiers, many sick and disabled, held out all night against an overwhelming Zulu force. Douglas Rattray’s emotionally charged talk covers the battle at Rorke’s Drift through the experiences of the individual soldiers who, through great acts of selflessness and bravery, managed to hold out in the face of such dire odds.

Eleven Victoria Crosses and five Distinguished Conduct Medals were awarded for actions at Rorke’s Drift, restoring British military honor and securing its reputation as one of the most remarkable stands in British military history.

Return to the lodge for dinner and an evening at leisure.

DIA 3

After breakfast and checking out, depart for a tour of Isandlwana Battlefield.

The stories of the Anglo-Zulu war have endured for almost a century and a half. The epic of Isandlwana was a battle which shook imperial Britain to its core and questioned the illusion of European superiority. How did a force, armed largely with spears and shields, overcome a modern British army?

On the way to Isandlwana, listen to audio narrated by David Rattray which gives a background to the Anglo-Zulu War. There is a stop for a comfort break and to view the museum at Isandlwana. Afterwards the lecture on the battlefield begins and refreshments are served while you listen. Another audio, this time describing the story of the survivors and events after the battle of Isandlwana, is played en-route to Manyoni private game reserve.

This private reserve is home to a wide selection of wildlife including a variety of endangered species and the world-renowned Big Five. The area’s vast range of diverse habitats allows the reserve to support an array of wildlife species while also attracting an abundant variety of birdlife. Providing a safe haven to over 70 mammal species, Manyoni is home to impressive populations of giraffe, kudu, nyala, wildebeest, zebra and much more.

Arrive at the five-star Rhino Sands Safari Camp which consists of 8 luxury tents, each equipped with an outdoor shower, ceiling and standing fans, a private swimming and a living area. Guests can relax at the camp’s lounge or bar deck and watch the myriad of bird life in the riverine forest. The safari experience here has been crafted with an eye towards classical elegance, with intimate meals dining on fine local cuisine, romantic sundowner stops, and world-class game viewing.

Enjoy lunch and some free time at the lodge before you set out on your afternoon game drive in one of South Africa’s most renowned wildlife regions. This first afternoon will surely evoke many emotions as you discover amazing wildlife interactions and search for the BIG 5 in the cooling afternoon and into the darkness of the night.

Returning the lodge, choose to freshen up before dinner or grab a drink at the camps bar and relax in the lounge. There is also a large boma area complete with a bush oven for guests to enjoy fireside dining beneath the stars.

After dinner, gather around the fire-pit to share stories with your guides.

DIA 4

After an early morning wake-up call, enjoy coffee, tea and snacks before embarking on a morning game drive during the cool early light while wildlife is most active.

Your guide will use his local knowledge of the area taking you to the spots best for game viewing at this time of the day. Using this knowledge, their tracking abilities and of course natures luck, you will find the wildlife you most would like to see.

Return to the lodge for breakfast and enjoy some leisure time relaxing in your tented suite, at the camp’s lounge or bar deck and watch the myriad of bird life in the riverine forest.

As the afternoon cools, enjoy another game drive with your guide as you track down those animals that eluded you in the morning. As night falls, the nocturnal wildlife awakens to hunt, forage and explore the lands under the cover of darkness.

Return to the lodge where you will enjoy dinner and a few more stories around the fire pit before retiring to your room.

DIA 5

After an early morning wake-up call, enjoy coffee, tea and snacks before embarking on your final morning safari. What you see this morning will depend entirely on what nature delivers, but rest assure you will leave wanting to return to this piece of paradise.

The Rovos Rail Information:

The Track: The track over which we travel is inconsistently maintained. If you wake at night imagining the train is travelling at high speed, be assured it is the state of the track below creating that impression.

Off-train excursions cannot be guaranteed and will only be undertaken if time and circumstances permit. Departure and arrival times are approximate and cannot be guaranteed. We reserve the right to alter our routing at any time between departure and arrival points. We do our best to fulfil our obligations, but it goes without saying that with many loco changes as well as other logistical permutations it is not uncommon to be delayed.

The Royal Suite: The Royal Suites each take up half a carriage with their own private lounge area and en-suite bathroom with Victorian bath, separate shower, toilet and basin. They accommodate one or two passengers in double or twin beds. A dedicated host/ess is available at all times and services the suites daily.

unit (if applicable) – are available on board.

Evening attire is more formal: For gentlemen a jacket and tie are a minimum requirement while for ladies we suggest cocktail/evening dresses or suits. For off train excursions, we recommend comfortable walking shoes, sun lotion and hats. If required, blankets and rain capes are available.

Mobile devices & internet: In maintaining the spirit of train travel there are no radios or television sets on board. The use of mobile phones, laptops and essentially anything that could disturb other passengers is confined to the privacy of your suites only. The reception is poor while the train is moving.

This nonstop adventure presents the unrivalled experience of touring the Okavango Delta and The Moremi Game Reserve while enjoying the luxury that is Chiefs Camp. Through careful wildlife management, this region has become perhaps one of the best places to see animals and birds in Africa.

PLEASE NOTE – This PRE-Cruise Program begins in Johannesburg and therefore guests need to fly into Johannesburg, South Africa. Also note that soft-sided luggage is required for the flight to Chief’s Camp. See below for further details.

Any guests travelling with Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POC) or CPAP breathing machines should read further below for airline stipulations with regards to bringing this equipment on tour.

DIA 1

DIA 2

Once in the terminal, a local representative will assist you with excess luggage storage and checking in for your flight to Chief’s Camp via Maun in Botswana.

As guests may only bring one piece of soft-sided luggage per person (max 20 kg) on the light aircraft flight to Chief’s Camp, excess luggage (up to 2 pieces per person – max 23 kg/50lbs) will be stored at the Johannesburg Airport from days 2-4 and it will be shipped via courier to Cape Town where you will be re-united with it on Day 4 at your hotel. Make sure to pack accordingly and bring any medications and cruise documents with you.

On arrival in Maun, a local representative will meet you and assist with your light aircraft transfer to Chiefs Camp licensed private airstrip which is located approximately two kilometers from the camp. The transfer from the airstrip to the camp takes approximately 25 minutes.

Named after Chief Moremi, Sanctuary Chief’s Camp is located in the world-renowned Moremi Game Reserve. This luxurious camp is ideal for an African safari due to the vast numbers of animals that congregate all year round. Chief’s Island is one of the many islands created by the seasonal flood waters of the Okavango Delta and is well-known for the finest game viewing in Southern Africa, including both black and white rhino completing the Big Five.

With the finest cuisine and wines, the camp is also consistently rated as one of the top safari camps in Botswana by Condé Nast and Travel & Leisure.

On arrival at Chief’s Camp, check-in and proceed to your suite for some time to freshen up prior to your afternoon game drive.

As the predator capital of the world, the game viewing is awe-inspiring here. But apart from its predators, the Moremi is also renowned for its large concentrations of plains-game, elephant and buffalo. This is Big Five territory, and you will also no doubt see giraffe, impala and zebra. Both white and black rhino were introduced into the Mombo Concession in 2001 and 2003, and healthy populations of the endangered wild dog also make this area their home. Several lion prides as well as genet cats and hyena also live in abundance here. Like the rest of the Okavango Delta, the area is a paradise for bird lovers, with over 500 species.

After your game drive, return to the camp for dinner.

This nonstop adventure presents the unrivalled experience of touring thundering Victoria Falls and venturing into Botswana’s first national park for a game drive to view African’s most iconic wildlife.

IMPORTANTE:

This POST Cruise Program ends in Johannesburg and therefore guests need to fly out of Johannesburg, South Africa.

Any guests travelling with Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POC) or CPAP breathing machines should read further below for airline stipulations with regards to bringing this equipment on tour.

Dia 1

Upon disembarkation in Cape Town, you will be met and transferred to your overnight hotel.

Take in views of the beautiful waters of the Atlantic Ocean and the private marina from the Radisson Blu Hotel Waterfront in Cape Town.

Check in time is at 2:00pm. Although every effort will be made to have the rooms available before this time, this cannot be guaranteed; however, guests may drop their luggage at Reception and either enjoy the facilities of the hotel or perhaps head into town for some local sightseeing.

Enjoy your evening at leisure. Lunch and dinner are on your own today.

DIA 2

After breakfast and check-out, you will be met and transferred to the Cape Town Airport for a flight to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.

As guests may only bring one piece of checked luggage per person, excess luggage (1 piece per person – max 23kg / 50 lbs) will be shipped via courier to Johannesburg where you will be re-united with it on Day 4 at your hotel. Make sure to pack accordingly and bring any medications and cruise documents with you.

Upon arriving in the Victoria Falls airport, another local representative will assist in your transfer to the Victoria Falls Rainforest for a guided visit.

Later in the afternoon, transfer to the Zambezi River and embark on a sunset cruise (shared departure). Depending on the size of the group the boat may either be a covered single level sightseeing boat or a larger boat with multiple levels. Enjoy a beverage from this vantage point whilst watching the sunset and possibly sighting hippos, crocodiles, various birdlife and maybe even an elephant or two along the banks of the river.

Return to the hotel for dinner and overnight.

Dia 2

After a leisurely breakfast at your hotel and check out, you will be met and transferred to the Victoria Falls Rainforest where you will have a guided walk.

Located on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, Victoria Falls is the world’s largest curtain of falling water, based on the falls’ one-mile width and height of 360 feet. It’s an amazing spectacle to watch as the Zambezi River roars over the edge of a basalt gorge, forming what locals call Mosi-Oa-Tunya or “the smoke that thunders”. In nov 1885, after seeing the falls for the first time, Scottish explorer and Doctor David Livingstone re-named them after Queen Victoria.

A path along the edge of the rainforest provides visitors with an unparalleled series of views of the falls but be prepared to get wet from the tremendous spray!

NOTA: pathways through Victoria Falls Park can be slippery if wet. Proper walking shoes should be worn.

Following your visit at the Falls, you will transfer to the town of Kasane in Botswana (Zimbabwe/Botswana border crossing – see further below for visa details) and on to nearby Chobe Chilwero Lodge for check in and dinner. The lodge is located on the Chobe River, not far from the entrance to Chobe National Park.

DIA 3

After an early-morning wake-up call and coffee and tea in the lobby, you will embark on a morning game drive in 4x4 open-air safari vehicles. You may see wildlife including elephant, lion, leopard and buffalo to name a few. Chobe is also home to two antelope that aren’t encountered anywhere else in Botswana, the puku and the Chobe bushbuck.

Declared a national park in 1967, Chobe was the first one established in Botswana and now covers more than 4,500 square miles of dry savannah, floodplains, and teak woodlands that are ideal animal habitats.

Returning from your morning safari, a full breakfast will be served after which you will have free time to do as you wish at the lodge.

Following lunch you will embark on a cruise down the Chobe River – this is the ideal time to keep a look out for animals coming to the river for water.

Later dinner will be served at the lodge.

Dia 4

Should your flights allow, after an early-morning wake-up call, and coffee or tea in the lobby, you will embark on another morning game drive. As before, what you see depends entirely on the animals, but you can be sure the experience will be extraordinary.

Later, following breakfast at the lodge, you will transfer to the Kasane airport for a flight to Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport. Upon arriving there, you will be met by a local representative and accompanied on the short walk to your airport-based hotel – located in the airport terminal.

Feel free to spend the remainder of the afternoon at leisure. Jantar por conta própria.

Dia 5

Desfrute o café da manhã no hotel. Check out time is 11:00am.

*This is a malaria risk area. Make sure that the necessary medication has been taken. Guests should seek their physicians’ advice regarding malaria precautions and other recommended immunizations. You must begin taking malaria precautions prior to your departure date.

*The contents and order of the activities in this program are subject to change by the lodge management without prior notice, due to the prevailing weather conditions and movement of dangerous wildlife in the Chobe National Park.

*The roads in the game reserve are gravel. There are also inclines and certain parts of the game drive can be bumpy. This program is not recommended for guests with back problems.

*Bring warm clothing, as the evenings and early mornings are chilly.

*This program is not fully guided. Local representatives will assist you with your transfers and you will have a guide at Victoria Falls, however, the game drive and Chobe River cruise at the lodge and is run solely and at the discretion by the lodge/hotel staff.

*The water levels at Victoria Falls are season dependent. ‘Low Water’ runs between August and January and is at its lowest between November and early December.

Clima provável:

South Africa’s seasons are the reverse of those in the northern hemisphere. Midwinter is in June and midsummer at hottest temperatures in December and January. The climate varies from region to region but is generally mild throughout the year. The average daily temperature is 30°C and nighttime temperatures can drop to approximately 14°C.

The arrival of the rains trigger a dispersal of game from the Chobe River area but the warm, rainy December to March summer months are the best time to visit Chobe for bird watching, the impala birthing season (great for predators!) and to see the Savute zebra migration.

O que trazer:

Light cotton tops and cotton trousers and shorts in summer. Safari trousers and warm fleece tops for evenings and cooler days. Swimwear, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, comfortable walking shoes, camera, film and batteries (including spare batteries and chargers), personal toiletries and lip creams and anti-malaria prophylaxis.

Enjoy an up-close unobstructed view of Africa’s most iconic animals on multiple game drives into the bush. Home to the highest and most diverse concentration of wildlife in the southern hemisphere, you can see all of Africa’s iconic species here, including all of the Big Five, along with a supporting cast of no less intriguing 137 mammal species and over 450 varieties of bird – while having minimal encounters with other people

SABI SABI LITTLE BUSH CAMP

Little Bush Camp lies hidden in the shade of indigenous riverine trees, on a bend of the Msulthlu River. It is the smallest and most secluded of Sabi Sabi's lodges and styled to reflect the contemporary elegance that epitomizes Bush Lodge. Children under 13 years of age are not catered to at this camp.

The lodge offers six suites, all with private decks overlooking the riverbed and surrounding natural bush. The lodge itself is intimate, centered on an inviting lounge and leading to an elegant outdoor dining area. The pool area is across the riverbed and an outdoor boma is the perfect setting for indulging in the finest safari cuisine.

Each thatched suite is individually styled with a designer bed, draped mosquito nets, genuine African artefacts, wooden finishes and creative use of colors, textures and light. Luxurious en suite bathrooms feature both indoor and outdoor showers, while the heated spa bath on each secluded deck offers a delightfully decadent vantage point from which to relax and watch the bushveld and abundant wildlife.

Observe:

-Lion Sands Game Reserve is located in a low-risk malaria area however, we urge guests to consult their doctors about malarial prophylactics before visiting.

-The contents and order of activities in this program are subject to change by the lodge management without prior notice, due to the prevailing weather conditions and movement of dangerous wildlife on the reserve.

-During early morning game drives in open vehicles it can be a little cool. We recommend that guests take along a windbreaker.

-During the day, it can get extremely hot. The game drive vehicles are not covered – and guests are therefore exposed to the elements. Guests are therefore advised not to forget their sunhats, sun block, sunglasses, as well as their cameras and binoculars.

-The roads in the game reserve are gravel. Também há declives e certas partes do passeio em veículo podem chacoalhar bastante. Not recommended for guests with back & neck problems or pregnant ladies.

Enjoy an up-close unobstructed view of Africa’s most iconic animals on multiple game drives into the bush. Home to the highest and most diverse concentration of wildlife in the southern hemisphere, you can see all of Africa’s iconic species here, including all of the Big Five, along with a supporting cast of no less intriguing 137 mammal species and over 450 varieties of bird – while having minimal encounters with other people.

SABI SABI LITTLE BUSH CAMP

Little Bush Camp lies hidden in the shade of indigenous riverine trees, on a bend of the Msulthlu River. It is the smallest and most secluded of Sabi Sabi's lodges and styled to reflect the contemporary elegance that epitomizes Bush Lodge.

The lodge offers six suites, all with private decks overlooking the riverbed and surrounding natural bush. The lodge itself is intimate, centered on an inviting lounge and leading to an elegant outdoor dining area. The pool area is across the riverbed and an outdoor boma is the perfect setting for indulging in the finest safari cuisine.

Each thatched suite is individually styled with a designer bed, draped mosquito nets, genuine African artefacts, wooden finishes and creative use of colors, textures and light. Luxurious en suite bathrooms feature both indoor and outdoor showers, while the heated spa bath on each secluded deck offers a delightfully decadent vantage point from which to relax and watch the bushveld and abundant wildlife. Children under 13 years of age are not permitted at this lodge.

DIA 1

DIA 2

After check-in, transfer to the Zambezi River and embark on a sunset cruise (shared departure). Depending on the size of the group the boat may either be a covered single level sightseeing boat or a larger boat with multiple levels. Enjoy a beverage from this vantage point whilst watching the sunset and possibly sighting hippos, crocodiles, various birdlife and maybe even an elephant or two along the banks of the river.

Your boat cruise is followed up with dinner back at the hotel.

DIA 3

After breakfast and check out, transfer to the Victoria Falls Rainforest where you will have a guided walk.

Located on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, Victoria Falls is the world’s largest curtain of falling water, based on the falls’ one-mile width and height of 360 feet. It’s an amazing spectacle to watch as the Zambezi River roars over the edge of a basalt gorge, forming what locals call Mosi-Oa-Tunya or “the smoke that thunders”. In nov 1885, after seeing the falls for the first time, Scottish explorer and Doctor David Livingstone re-named them after Queen Victoria.

A path along the edge of the rainforest provides visitors with an unparalleled series of views of the falls but be prepared to get wet from the tremendous spray!

NOTA: the cobblestone walkways within the rainforest can be slippery if wet and some spots are at a gradient. Proper walking shoes that have a good grip should be worn, and guests should wear appropriate clothing to get wet. Due to the amount of walking and terrain, this program is not suited for guests who have walking difficulty or who utilize a wheelchair or scooter. Walking distance will be 2-4km (1,24 – 2.48 miles).

Continue by road across the Zimbabwe – Botswana border to Chobe Chilwero. Your lodge is located on the Chobe River, not far from the entrance to Chobe National Park.

Check in, enjoy lunch at the lodge and then some free time to get acquainted with your surroundings.

A bit later in the day, gather in the main lodge for tea and snacks followed by a game drive in Chobe National Park. Safaris are conducted in 4x4 open side vehicles and led by qualified professional guides who will bring you close to hippos, buffalos, puku and other animals that gather on the banks of the Chobe River. Naturally, elephants, lion and leopard are also found in the area.

Return to your lodge thereafter for dinner and overnight.

DIA 4

After an early-morning wake-up call and coffee and tea in the lobby, you will embark on a morning game drive in 4x4 open-air safari vehicles.

Along with elephant, lion, leopard and buffalo, Chobe is also home to two antelope that aren’t encountered anywhere else in Botswana, the puku and the Chobe bushbuck. Declared a national park in 1967, Chobe was the first one established in Botswana and now covers more than 4,500 square miles of dry savannah, floodplains, and teak woodlands that are ideal animal habitats.

Returning from your morning safari, a full breakfast will be served after which you will have free time to do as you wish at the lodge.

Following lunch, you will embark on a cruise down the Chobe River – this is the ideal time to keep a look out for animals coming to the river for water.

Later dinner will be served at the lodge.
