Two distinctive stays, one richly varied safari

Fly from Johannesburg into the Lowveld for a six-day journey that pairs three nights at Safari Moon Luxury Bush Lodge near Hoedspruit with two nights at Ndzhaka Tented Camp in Manyeleti Game Reserve. Start with boutique lodge comfort and days exploring the wider region, then move into a tented reserve setting where early-morning and late-afternoon game drives shape your day.

US$3,300 per person sharing includes return Johannesburg–Hoedspruit flights and all airport and lodge transfers in the itinerary. A solo traveller pays US$4,620 using the usual supplement. Flight schedules, seat availability, baggage allowances and accommodation are confirmed before booking; onward international connections should be checked with us first.

Kruger wildlife and the Panorama’s dramatic landscapes

Safari Moon is your base for a full-day open-vehicle safari through Kruger’s Orpen and Satara areas. Watch for elephants, giraffes, antelope, predators and birdlife as your guide follows the day’s wildlife activity. Lunch at Satara Rest Camp is at your own expense. A separate full-day Panorama Route excursion brings canyon views, waterfalls and scenic viewpoints into the journey.

Typical Panorama stops include Blyde River Canyon and the Three Rondavels, God’s Window, Bourke’s Luck Potholes and Lisbon Falls. Weather, access and available time determine the final stops; lunch during this excursion is extra. Sunset and sunrise drives in Tshukudu Game Reserve bookend your Safari Moon stay.

Slow down in Manyeleti

Transfer to Ndzhaka for a more immersive tented safari experience, with lunch and dinner included during your camp stay. Four guided Manyeleti drives—an arrival sunset, the following morning and afternoon, and a final sunrise—offer time to explore at wildlife’s pace. Between outings, relax at camp and enjoy the waterhole setting, without any promise that animals will appear.

This package combines a luxury bush lodge with an authentic tented camp; the two properties have different styles and facilities. Guided safaris are shared unless a private arrangement is specifically quoted. Particular species and Big Five sightings cannot be guaranteed.

What is covered

Your price includes five nights, breakfasts and dinners at Safari Moon, scheduled meals at Ndzhaka, one full-day Kruger safari, a full-day Panorama tour, two Tshukudu drives, four Manyeleti drives, qualified guides, open safari vehicles for game viewing, conservation levies and Kruger entrance fees. Drinks, gratuities, personal purchases, travel insurance, lunches away from Ndzhaka and optional activities are extra.
