About this trip
Five days across South Africa's Mpumalanga escarpment and into Eswatini, mixing dramatic highland scenery with proper game drives in search of the big five.
You spend the first stretch exploring the Panorama Route and the Lowveld, then head into Kruger National Park for wildlife viewing, before crossing the border into Eswatini for a change of pace and a look at a different culture and landscape.
It suits people who want scenery and safari in one go, rather than just ticking off game drives — the kind of trip where the drive between stops is as much a highlight as the destination.
What you'll do
- Game drives in Kruger National Park tracking elephant, rhino, lion, leopard and buffalo
