Day 1 : Arrival Johannesburg – Hazyview (390Km – 4Hrs)

Location: Hazyview

Accommodation Name: Umbhaba Eco Lodge

In the early morning (between 06:30-07:00 am) your Spanish speaking driver-guide will meet you either at Johannesburg Airport or at one of the airport hotels (5 km radius); pre-night in Johannesburg Airport is available as an optional extra, upon an additional cost. From there you drive to your accommodation. After your arrival, check-in and enjoy a light lunch (own expense) before departing on the first safari to Kruger National Park. Depart Johannesburg and enter the Mpumalanga Province. Fantastic sceneries, legends of various tribes, a huge diversity of flora and the fascinating world of animals make Mpumalanga to one of the main destinations for travellers. Not only Kruger National Park, but many more nature and game reserves offer homes and protection to an abundance of animals. Many coal mines are operating in the Witbank area. This region is home to the Ndebele people, well known for their artistic talents. They are well known for their colourful dresses, their beadwork and their beaded hoops. Their houses are decorated with geometrical patterns. Past Belfast and Lydenburg to the Long Tom Pass. It got its name from the Long Tom cannons used during the Anglo-Boer war. The original pass was a treacherous one with steep gradients hairpin bends and hair raising drops. It was originally the route followed by pioneer wagon drivers transporting goods from Mozambique to Lydenburg. The road leads into the village Sabie, found during the gold rush that swept through this area around 1880. 
Overnight in Hazyview.

Day 2 : Hazyview – Kruger National Park – Hazyview

Location: Hazyview

Accommodation Name: Umbhaba Eco Lodge

Discover the wonderful wildlife of the Kruger National Park on this guided, full-day tour. In the early morning, meet with your ranger who will give you an introduction to the Kruger National Park. You drive in an open 4x4 vehicle and see animals on the way that are just waking up and those that end a night with hunting. If you're lucky, you'll encounter the Big 5 throughout the day. After your breakfast stop in one of the camps, the journey continues on various routes through the bush. Enjoy your lunch (own expense, clients can purchase at the Rest Camp inside the Park) in the shade before slowly returning to the departure point and enjoying the wonderful nature and its diverse inhabitants on the way. The Kruger National Park extends over almost 2 million hectares and borders on Mozambique and Zimbabwe. The ideal time for game viewing is in our winter (May to September) when the climate is mild and the landscape is dry and bare. With the first rains in November, nature comes to life again. This is also the time when most animals give birth to their young. The Kruger National Park offers an animal world that is one of the most diverse and impressive in Africa. In addition to the "Big Five", you can also observe giraffes, zebras, antelopes, warthogs and many species of birds on game drives.
Overnight in Hazyview.

Day 3 : Hazyview – Panorama Route – Hazyview

Location: Parc Kruger

Accommodation Name: Umbhaba Eco Lodge

Breakfast will be served at the lodge, thereafter you will make your way to the Panorama Route. The Panorama Route includes a variety of scenery such as spectacular canyons, rugged mountains, misty waterfalls and tranquil lakes. Pilgrim’s Rest is the place where Gold was first discovered in 1837. Pilgrim’s Rest, a national monument that has maintained its historic appearance, captures the spirit of the era and gives a unique insight into the gold rush days. Many of the authentic buildings can be visited ranging from the modest house of a gold digger to the stately mansion of the director of the Transvaal Gold Mining Estate Ltd. The route passes Ohrigstad and leads into the Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve and Blyde River Canyon. The 26-kilometre long valley is one of the most important natural wonders of South Africa. Viewpoints, spanning several hundred meters down into the Canyon, are situated all along the Panoramic Route. North of the route lies the Three Rondavels, the Blyde River Canyon’s most striking feature. Huge rocks resemble mushrooms growing out of the mountain and are similar in appearance to traditional African round huts, namely Rondavels. Bourke’s Luck Potholes are a complex of smooth, cylindrical potholes and natural rock sculptures that have been hollowed out by water erosion through the Blyde River over millions of years. South of the route another spectacular viewpoint is named God’s Window. The seemingly endless views over-dense forests, the lush and fertile Lowveld and the Blyde River Canyon are magnificent.
Overnight in Hazyview.

Day 4 : Hazyview – Kruger National Park – Hazyview

Accommodation Name: Umbhaba Eco Lodge

Early morning wake up call. You will depart on another safari to Kruger National Park.

Whilst driving to one of the camps, you will drive past many animals, some just waking up others finishing a busy night with tracking and hunting. With some luck, the Big 5 will make their appearance in the course of the day. After a breakfast stop, you continue your journey through the bush on various routes.

Today Voyages offers a selection of tours that are designed, managed and operated by our network of trusted Tour Operators and DMCs. Our database is connected with our partners so that when you make a booking with us this will immediately be received and processed by the Tour Operator.

  • Where should I buy the flights to reach my destination?

    Today Voyages does not sell flights directly. None of our tours come with flights included. Why? Because we prefer to give full flexibility to our valued customers to select the airlines and the booking platform they prefer. As soon as your flight is booked and confirmed, we invite you to update your flight plan within your Today Voyages booking confirmation page by entering your flight number, departure and arrival times, as well as your Passport information (if needed). None of these fields are mandatory but we highly encourage you to provide as much information as possible. This will allow us to provide you with the excellent service you are looking for.

    Certain tours might show a selection of additional excursions/optional activities that you may want to add to our standard itinerary. These services are priced separately and can be added to the cart before completing the booking. We believe these optional services to contribute to making your vacation unforgettable; however, you are in no way obliged to purchase them. All our tours are awesome with our without optional services!

    If you purchase one of our Group vacation packages, you will be escorted by a professional tour guide and will be traveling with other like-minded travelers you may not know.

You may or may not be escorted by a professional tour guide; this depends on the type of private tour you are interested in.

  • When and how will I receive the travel documents (vouchers)?

    If you book one of our Group or Private tours, you will receive your travel documents via email approximately 20 days prior to travel date.

We recommend checking your emails on a regular basis as this is our most reliable method of communication. If you have questions or need additional support, you can always chat with us or email us directly.

  • What happens if a Group tour does not get confirmed?

    It is very simple... you will be offered an alternative departure date or be refunded the full amount you pre-paid. No questions asked!

Unforgettable tour in the US National Parks

04-May-2022

I booked a guided tour in the National Parks through Today Voyages and couldn't have been happier! Our guide was great, he knew the destination very well and gave us great advice for the best hikes and view points. The itinerary was well-packed and we were amazed at the scenery of the South West. We would definitely consider booking another tour next year.

Helengeli island is stunning

12-Apr-2023

Wow, Helengeli island is stunning. The resort is clean, the staff are so attentive, the grounds are pristine, and the food is 5*. Spending a week at this resort was simply paradise, white sand, crystal blue ocean, what more could you want! As I wasn't able to tailor-make my holiday, the Today Voyages team helped me find the tour that best matched my expectations, and they definitely didn't disappoint!!!

Good Bali experience

There is no better place on Earth than Bali to celebrate your honeymoon. We are so glad we came across this tour. Two unforgettable weeks of jungle adventures, beaches and snorkeling, massages, nature. And the price was great. We cannot be happier! Planning Vietnam for 2024!

Top Experience!

03-Feb-2023

The Las Vegas and the National Parks Hiking Tour is a deal not to be missed. What a phenomenal trip! We were 14 people in our minibus and it was great to connect to all of them. So many stories to share. The cool thing about this tour is that it attracts hikers of all kinds: laid back hikers as well as more experienced ones could find beauty in every single destination this tour took us to. I will for sure join another tour soon. Thank you guys, also, for the assistance provided throughout the trip. Loved it!

Unforgettable 8-day trip to Kenya

01-Mar-2023

I just came back from an unforgettable 8-day trip to Kenya. A mix of relaxation and adventure. I had never traveled with a group before and, honestly, I was a little skeptical at the beginning. Pauline at Today Voyages convinced me that this was the right tour and the right destination for me. And the truth is... she was right. Tsavo and Watamu are such awesome destinations, our guide was impeccable and it was a small group: a family of 4, a young couple, and us. We became friends. Highly recommended!
