Viva Safaris offers you an exciting safari adventure at Kruger National Park and the Balule section. Experience the thrill of walking in the bush amongst different wild animals. The bush walks are very popular in Kruger Park and give you the brilliant opportunity to get really close to nature on foot. You will stay at Tremisana Game Lodge, the largest and leading big five game lodge in Kruger National Park. You are welcome to join this unique safari experience!
You will be staying for three nights at Tremisana Game Lodge, the largest and leading lodge in the Balule Section of Kruger National Park. They have a total of 15 chalets plus a two-bedroom guesthouse. It can accommodate a maximum of 40 guests. Every unit is en-suite (shower, toilet, basin) and all units are air-conditioned. Every bed has its own mosquito net. 24-hour Wi-Fi is available to all Tremisana guests.
The lodge is serviced by two excellent boreholes. Its proximity to the tar road means Tremisana is easily accessible all year round, including the rainy season. The presence of lions, elephants, and buffalo necessitates the maintaining of an electric fence around the camp.
Perhaps the most striking feature of Tremisana Game Lodge is the beautiful gardens. The presence of numerous bougainvilleas and various palms and cycads gives the camp a subtropical feel. Water features add a soothing effect and the overall feel of Tremisana is very relaxing. At night, the subdued light from the illuminated paved walkways lends a romantic and magical flavor to the outstanding camp.
All clients will be collected from hotels, guesthouses, or private homes in Gauteng as well as from O. R. Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg. You will travel via the Highveld farmlands to the picturesque subtropical Lowveld, and on to Tremisana Game Lodge in the Balule Section of the Kruger Park. After a short break during which you may unwind at the bar, have a swim, or relax in the tropical gardens, you will board the open land cruiser for a three-hour sunset drive.
During this drive, your guide will show you various animals and birds, and after dark, use spotlights to locate nocturnal species. Dinner will be at bush braai in the Marula Tree Boma deep in the African bush. Overnight stay will be in a comfortable air-conditioned en-suite thatch-roofed chalets.
You will wake up at sunrise for an exhilarating day of unforgettable bush life. You will drive to a remote venue, where you will enjoy a four-hour “walk in the wild”. Your experienced field guides will lead you through the bush at a pace you can handle in search of the big five.
The thrill of following Africa’s large animals until you are close enough to take a decent photo will remain with you forever. Adrenalin surges will be acute, not withstanding the fact that your rangers are adequately armed in case of danger.
You will return to Tremisana for brunch. Later you may sleep in your air conditioned chalet or swim in the pool. The lapa has extensive wildlife magazines. You will also visit the game viewing hide overlooking Tremisana Dam. A light lunch will be served and at around 3:30 p.m. You will then go on a four-hour game drive on Balule Big Five Game Reserve.
On the game drive, your rangers will be in radio contact so as to keep Viva Safaris informed of the movements of the game. You will stop for sundowners at a magnificent location and toast the splendor of Africa. You will return to Tremisana at around 7:30 p.m.
You will travel to the Orpen Gate of Kruger Park where you will board the open game viewer. The absence of windows and the elevated vantage position, allow you for excellent photographic opportunities. You will have an amazing chance not only to view game but also to listen to and smell the African bush and its denizens. There will be regular stops at picnic spots, rest camps, and places of interest.
Your experienced ranger will show you many animals and birds that frequent this wildlife paradise. The Orpen-Satara-Nwanedzi regions boast open plains and support large herds of zebra, giraffe, and antelope that attract numerous predators. In fact, the zones you will visit have the highest concentration of lions in Africa.
Enjoy an early morning sunrise drive on the open land cruiser. After a hearty breakfast, there will be time to purchase some memorabilia from the shop and take your last photos of the luxuriant lush gardens at Tremisana. You will then drive to the awesome Three Rondawels and the Blyde River Canyon. Then you will return to Gauteng in the late afternoon. Airport drop-off is by arrangement.
