| Start this adventurous journey on day 1 by arriving at Johannesburg International Airport (OR Tambo). From here you can either drive yourself or be transferred by air or road to Ant’s Nest and Ant’s Hill Bush Homes - www.waterberg.net - which is situated in the Waterberg. Spend 3-4 days at either one of the Ant’s Lodges where you will have the opportunity to view game from horseback, game vehicle or on foot. |

| “Our reserves are ones of diverse topography and vegetation ranging from wide open plains to beautiful mountainous areas, enabling us to naturally sustain the widest variety of game possible. They boast over 40 species of game including the rare sable antelope, nyala, oryx, eland, giraffe, buffalo, white rhino and well over 300 species for resident and migrant birds. In addition to game drives, the reserves offer a safe and secluded environment to allow guests of all ages to enjoy guided bush walks, horse rides, cycling and game drives.” |

| The journey then continues on to Garonga Safari camp in the Makalali Game Reserve west of the Kruger National Park - www.garonga.com Travelling from Ant’s to Garonga can be done either by road or private air transfer. Suggested stay would be 3-4 days. Here you can explore the marvel of the Lowveld bush on game drives or game walks. And for the more adventurous, try a ‘sleep out’ or bush picnic. |
|
| “Apart from the two safaris per day which can also include game walks getting up close and personal, Garonga also offers guests a “sleep out” experience where they are dropped off at dusk on a platform deck, and a delicious picnic dinner is there waiting with all their drinks. They sleep out on their own and are collected in the morning. We also offer massages, easel drawing boards, and microlite flips over the Reserve.” |
