With the recent increase of tourism to the palm-fringed shores of Mozambique, The Safari Co. is delighted to offer spectacular combinations of Bush and Beach.

With a fine selection of superb private game lodges in the game-rich reserves of the Mpumalanga bushveld, coupled with a visit to the cultural mosaic offering of Maputo, and the idyllic paradise islands of the sun-drenched archipelago of Mozambique, Bush and Beach is yours for the taking.

The following sample itinerary can be applied to any of the lodges in the Kruger area and hotels in Mozambique featured in our accommodation guide.

DAY 1:
Scheduled flight from Johannesburg to Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport. On arrival, you will be met and transferred to the game lodge of your choice. Your game viewing experience starts with an afternoon game drive in an open safari vehicle. Sundowners are normally served in a remote area under the African skies and a night drive en route back to camp allows you to view some of South Africa’s nocturnal animals and birds. Enjoy a sumptuous dinner at the lodge.

DAY 2:
After an early morning wake up call, enjoy a game drive followed by breakfast. The remainder of the day may be spent relaxing at the pool, or on a guided bush walk to witness the intricate environment often missed whilst driving. Lunch is followed by a short afternoon siesta, before setting off for the late afternoon game drive, returning in time for another African feast.
