On arrival at the Johannesburg ORTambo Airport you will be met by our local representative for document hand- over and assistance to board the scheduled Airlink flight to Skukuka Airport.

On arrival at the airports you will be met by your ranger for transfer to the lodge. After you settle in your accommodations , set out on an open landrover safari with your personal ranger and tracker team and share their wealth of knowledge as they introduce you to the game reserve's diverse wildlife, prolific bird species and unique vegetation & habitats. Experience a night drive that brings you closer to the magic of the nocturnal wildlife, thriving under the clear, star studded sky while spotlights provide the opportunity to view the nocturnal wildlife. Back at the lodge enjoy the comforts of a log fire and sissling sosaties as tales of Old White Hunters and African myths are told.

Mala Mala Main Camp, Sabi Sands, South Africa

Arrival at the private airstrip, where your safari hosts are on hand to assist with luggage before proceeding to the lodge for check in.

The Lowveld is acknowledged to support one of the greatest diversities of mammalian species on the African continent. It is here, adjacent to the , that the MalaMala Game Reserve is situated. The reserve straddles the perennial Sand River and includes a variety of habitat types; dense riverine forest, acacia-combretum bushveld, open grassland and rocky outcrops, each supporting different plant and animal communities. The ochre buildings with their thatched roofs, set among manicured lawns and blend harmoniously with the large shady trees.

The spacious Buffalo lounge displaying bronzes, works of art and animal trophies, leads onto an expansive wooden deck which provides an elevated view of animals, watering in the Sand River. Whether you prefer spending your time in camp doing some passive game viewing from the verandah or relaxing next to the sparkling pool with a drink in hand, personalized service is assured by a staff to guest ratio of three to one.

Breakfast and lunch are served in an attractive air-conditioned dining room overlooking the Sand River. Dinner, announced by the beating of African drums, is served under the stars in a reed enclosed boma, a tradition laid down at Campbell's first camp. Sitting around a log fire, enjoying MalaMala's venison specialties and sumptuous bush cuisine while sampling an outstanding South African wine, is yet another highlight of the MalaMala experience.

The accommodation at MalaMala Main Camp continues the African theme with spacious bungalows under thatch. Each of the air-conditioned rooms enjoys a spectacular view of the surrounding bush and are equipped with "His" and "Hers" en-suite bathrooms, insect proof screens and top quality large twin beds. Individually decorated, they feature sets of animal or bird prints, complementing the attention to detail for which MalaMala is world famous.

920 Oak Street Sugar Grove, IL 60554 www.safariline.net Yet, despite all these comforts, MalaMala retains a camp atmosphere reminiscent of days gone by. This phenomenal rate of viewing success is directly attributed to the fact that MalaMala comprises 33000 acres or 16000 hectares of pristine game viewing land, making it the largest privately owned game reserve in South Africa, with human density and impact on the land being kept to an absolute minimum. Another reason is the unfenced border between MalaMala and the Kruger National Park, which allows herds of animals to migrate unhindered to the perennial Sand River which flows north to south through the MalaMala Game Reserve for 13 kilometres or 20 miles.

Day 3/4 Kapama Private Game Reserve, Timbavati area Accommodations: Camp Jubalani

This morning following your game drive take a short charter hop from MalaMala to Eastgate Airport (Hoedspruit), where you will be met for transfer via Kapama Private Game Reserve to Camp Jabulani – approximately 20 minutes transfer time in game viewer vehicle.
