25th January – Today Dean collected his guests from OR Tambo Airport from the Munich flight and then started making his way down to Nelspruit and the Kruger National Park. They stopped off at Pretoriuskop for lunch before embarking on an afternoon game drive before making their way to Nkambeni for the evening. All that was see on the afternoon drive were Elephant, Rhino , Impala and Kudu.
26th January – This morning after an early breakfast the following route was followed: Nkambeni, Albasini, Doispane, Paul Kruger Gate Road, Napi to the H3 and back on the same route due to road closures.
Sightings along the way were Buffalo, Zebra, Elephants , Rhino, just past Nyamundwa Dam we got seventeen Wild Dogs running in the road. After hearing a radio message of a leopard on the junction of River Road Link and Doispane, we decided to make our way in that direction, when we got to the Kopje we found her and her cubs in a hole as that is where her cubs had been born. We also got good sightings of Giraffe and more elephant before making our way back to camp for lunch passing by the female Leopard again with her cubs. This time the female was lying on top of the rock with great photos being taken of her and the meowling of the tiny cubs in the hole being heard.
After an afternoon rest we went out again on an afternoon drive with sightings of general game before guests were placed on a sunset drive from Numbi Gate returning to camp at 20h00pm.
27th January – After breakfast the day was a much better game viewing day with Lions on a Buffalo kill on the S112 but due to the long grass the sighting was not that brilliant. Elephant, Rhino, Buffalo were also seen on the morning drive. We made our way to Skukuza for a coffee break before making our way down Eloff Street where we found another Leopard sitting at the bottom of a Jackalberry tree and then proceeded to walk along the road towards Skukuza . Sightings of Hippo , and more buffalo ere also seen along the way. Lunch was enjoyed at Skukuza camp before we started on our way back to camp with more sightings of Rhino, Elephant and general game. The afternoon was spent in camp with dinner being in the restaurant at 19h00m.
28th January- This morning only general game was seen on the morning drive before we departed from the Kruger National Park and started making our way back to Johannesburg. Tomorrow we depart on another Safari from Johannesburg with guests being collected from the Genesis Hotel in Fairmont. Lets see what the next couple of days have to offer!
