Accommodation

Tremisana Game Lodge

You will stay at Tremisana Game Lodge for one night. Tremisana Game Lodge is the largest and leading lodge in this section, having a total of 15 chalets plus a two-bedroom guesthouse. It can accommodate a maximum of 40 guests. Each room of the lodge has an en-suite shower, toilet, and basin. All units are air-conditioned.

The lodge is serviced by two excellent boreholes. Its proximity to the tar road means Tremisana Game Lodge is easily accessible all year round, including during the rainy season.

The presence of lions, elephants, and buffaloes necessitates an electric fence around the camp. Perhaps the most striking feature of Tremisana Game Lodge are the beautiful gardens. The presence of numerous bougainvilleas, various palms, and cycads gives the camp a subtropical feel.

Water features add a soothing effect, making the overall feel of Tremisana Game Lodge very relaxing. At night, the subdued light from the illuminated paved walkways lends a romantic and magical ambiance to the camp.

  • Accommodation level: Mid-range

Marc's Treehouse Lodge

You will stay in a tent at Marc's Treehouse Lodge for three nights. With seven tents, the lodge offers rustic but comfortable accommodation geared to put one in close contact with the sights, sounds, and scents of the wild. Amenities include electric fans, mosquito nets, comfortable beds, linen, towels, and soap. It has a swimming pool, a bush bar, and a boma where meals are served.

You can relax around the crackling campfire and share your impressions of the day’s wildlife trip.At the lodge, you can inhale the fresh, balmy air of African bush veld.

Fall asleep to the gurgling of the river, interrupted by the eerie whoops of hyena, spine-chilling wails of jackals, and the plaintive cry of the thick-tailed bush baby. Awaken to the melodious chorus of birdsong and watch the activity of wildlife drinking at the river or at the spotlit waterhole.

Program

Day 1: Gauteng / Johannesburg - Balule Nature Reserve

You will be picked up from your hotel in Gauteng or O. R. Tambo International Airport (JNB) and travel via the Highveld grasslands to the subtropical Lowveld.

Then, you will board to an open Land Cruiser for a 3-hour sunset drive that will be your first opportunity to experience the varied fauna and flora of Africa.
