4 NATIONS TOUR  

VISIT:   SOUTH AFRICA ; MOCAMBIQUE; SWAZILAND & LESOTHO

12 Day/11 Night
 

This tour is immensely popular and leaves from Durban. Moving in and out of South Africa as we add Swaziland, Lesotho and Moçambique to our list of countries visited, it goes without saying that this tour is one of great variety, from high mountains, to pristine beaches, to open African plains. And from open motorways to the deep sand of southern Moçambique and the severe switchbacks of the Sani Pass in 4×4’s, you’ll get to see it all. This tour really has all of the best bits of our most popular tours.

Day 1: Depart Durban for Southern Drakensberg and set up camp. (L, D)   

Day 2: Board 4X4 vehicle for the ascent of the incredible Sani Pass and into the Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho, where we enjoy lunch and perhaps a Maluti Lager or two at the Highest Pub in Africa, before descending back into South Africa and on to camp for dinner. (B, L, D)

Day 3: Breakfast and break camp early, ready for our trip to the world-famous Kruger National Park. Enter the park, set up camp and sleep well tonight. (B, L, D)

Day 4, 5: For the next 2 days, we enjoy all that the Kruger Park has to offer the local and international visitor. Daily routines are typically as follows: After an early morning cup of coffee, we set off on a morning game drive, tracking the Big 5. Back to camp for breakfast or perhaps breakfast in the bush if we feel like it? As the sun gets higher and the temperature rises, we spend the midday hours in camp, cooling off in the pool and enjoying lunch. Then we set off on our afternoon game drive, returning to camp for sun-downers and dinner under African skies. Night drives can be arranged at extra cost. (B, L, D)

Day 6: Breaking camp early, we enjoy a last game drive in the Park on our way to the exit gate, then head back into Swaziland where we will reach our next camp by midday. That afternoon we have a real treat when we track rhino on foot through the bush with a specialist ranger.

Day 7: Today’s traveling will see us setting foot in 3 different countries before the sun sets. Departing Swaziland, we re-enter South Africa briefly before entering into Mocambique. Once through customs, we board 4X4 vehicles for the short journey through thick sand to our luxury lodge. (B, L, D)

Day 8: After breakfast over-looking the pristine beach and the wild dolphins, enjoy a walk on the beach, visit the village and enjoy a beer with the locals or perhaps just soak up the sun around our private swimming pool. (B, L, D)

Day 9: An early breakfast followed by a 4X4 trip back to the South African border and then onto our next overnight camp in a private game reserve in Zululand. (B, L, D)

Day 10: We spend the day in the Umfolozi/Hluhluwe Game Reserve, famed for its rhino and elephant but also home to the leopard, lion, cheetah, buffalo and wild dog,                                                                collectively making up the Big 7. (B, L, D)

Day 11: An early pre-breakfast bush walk, whereafter we spend the day soaking up the bush atmosphere, bird watching and lying around the pool. In the afternoon, there is an optional game drive and river cruise. Then back to camp where we enjoy our farewell dinner in the bush. (B, L, D)

Day 12: Break camp and return to Durban, stopping at a craft village along the way to purchase any last-minute souvenirs. (B, L)
