Day 1

You will be met at Johannesburg Airport and transferred 2-hours through the rural North West Transvaal to the malaria-free Pilanesberg Game Reserve.

After checking into your game lodge, enjoy your first open-top game drive with a lodge ranger in this superb Big Five game reserve situated inside an extinct volcano. Hopefully see elephants, lions, antelope and a wide variety of other wildlife, before enjoying dinner in your warm African surroundings.

Note: You need upper-body strength for this safari, as you will need to be transferred into the front seat of the game viewing vehicle. If you cannot do this, enquire about a fully wheelechair accessible safari travelling in a closed vehicle with ramps, which needs to be pre-booked.

Days 2 To 3

Rise early when game viewing conditions are at their best, for a thrilling open-top game drive with your lodge ranger in the Pilanesberg Game Reserve. Hope to see several of the Big 5 - lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard and rhino - as well as many other animals before returning to your lodge for breakfast.

The rest of the morning is free to relax at your lodge or visit nearby Sun City, before setting out again in the late afternoon for another game drive. Hope to see hippo, kudu, antelope, waterbuck, warthogs, baboons and many other interesting species. Outstanding bird watching is also guaranteed.

After a beautiful African sunset, enjoy the balmy evening and pristine stars of the Milky Way as you have never seen them before – as well as the spectacular Southern Cross.

Note: You need some upper body strength for this safari, as you will need to be lifted into the front seat of the game viewing vehicle. Other safari alternatives are available, using an accessible vehicle, if you do not have upper body strength or if you are travelling with young children.

Day 4

Enjoy a final early morning game drive in Pilanesberg Game Reserve this morning, before your 2-hour transfer to Johannesburg.

Check into your hotel conveniently situated near Johannesburg Airport.

Day 5

You will be transferred today to Johannesburg Airport for your onward flight.

You will be met at Mauritius Airport and transferred 1-hour to your beach resort.

Check in to your hotel, settle in and relax on this warm tropical Indian Ocean island, surrounded by sparkling turquoise waters and coral reefs.

Days 6 To 10

Enjoy lazy days relaxing on white sandy beaches, and watching people swim and snorkel in the warm turquoise waters that surround the tropical island of Mauritius, which is protected by a pristine coral reef.

If you are able to transfer onto the water, you can view the fish and corals from a glass-bottomed boat. You can also savour delicious Creole cuisine - including fresh seafood.

In the north you can visit beautiful Pamplemousse Gardens,  the excellent museum of Mauritian history at Sugar World and vibrant Grand Baie with its many pubs and restuarants. In the southwest you can visit the stunning Black Rivers Gorges National Park and the seven coloured earth found at Chamarel. In the west you can shop in the capital of Port Louis, where you must expect to bargain vigorously. Rum tastings are also offered in several locations.

Note: If you would like any excusrions, we strongly suggest booking these in advance to be assured of a suitable vehicle.

Day 11

Transfer 1-hour to Mauritius Airport for your flight home.
