Klaserie Private Nature Reserve forms part of the 2 million hectare Greater Kruger National Park. It is one of the largest privately owned nature reserves in South Africa – covering 60 000 hectares on either side of the Klaserie River. The private nature of this wilderness sanctuary enables visitors to embrace the African bushveld. It allows guests to take in the sights, sounds and smells that make the bushveld such a unique experience. Safaris within this unspoilt region of the Greater Kruger National Park focus on the bush and its ecosystems.

Klaserie is part of an exclusive, privately-owned wildlife sanctuary. The area is renowned as a home to the Big 5 and offers incredible game viewing opportunities.

Guests can expect to see lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, buffalo as well as an abundance of plains game and incredible birdlife, whilst experiencing it all on guided walks, off road, and at night.

After your morning game drive and brunch, you will set off through Klaserie to your lodge in the Mpumalanga Lowveld. The rest of the afternoon is at leisure to relax in the gardens of your lodge.

Driving time –Klaserie to Hazyview/White River: Approx. 3 hours

Mpumalanga is considered to be one of the most geographically diverse and unbelievably beautiful places in South Africa. Mpumalanga lies in the east of South Africa, north of KwaZulu-Natal and bordering Swaziland and Mozambique. In the northeast, the land rises towards mountain peaks and then terminates in an immense escarpment. In some places, this escarpment plunges hundreds of meters down to the low-lying area known as the Lowveld.

People are drawn to Mpumalanga by the magnificent scenery, by the fauna and flora and by the saga of the 1870s gold rush era and a wealth of fascinating tribal legends. Mountains, panoramic passes, valleys, rivers, waterfalls and forests characterize the landscape.

This morning you will take a drive through to Nelspruit for your flight to Livingstone, Zambia (Victoria Falls).

Upon arrival at Livingstone Airport, you are met by a driver from Wild Horizons and transferred across the border into Zimbabwe and to your hotel.

Driving time – Hazyview to Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport: approx 50 minutes

Flight time – Nelspruit to Livingstone: approx 2½ hours

Transfer time – Livingstone Airport to Victoria Falls hotels: approx 40 minutes

Besides being one of the seven natural wonders of the world and a World Heritage Site, Victoria Falls is the unchallenged adventure capital of Africa with more than 50 activities available.

The Victoria Falls is considered to be the largest waterfall in the world. See the mighty Zambezi River as it thunders over the 1700 metre wide Victoria Falls and plunges 100 metres into a narrow gorge below. The great columns of spray rising from the tumultuous falls can be seen from 80 kilometres away on a clear day. If you are lucky enough to be there at full moon, a "moonbow" can be seen in the spray instead of the usual daylight rainbow.

This morning is at leisure until you are transferred to Victoria Falls Airport for your flight to Johannesburg.

Senalala Luxury Safari Camp is a peaceful escape in the heart of Klaserie Private Nature Reserve and forms part of the Greater Kruger National Park.

Six of the rooms have twin ¾ beds and full ensuite bathrooms. Two of the rooms have a king bed and full ensuite bathrooms. One of the king rooms also has an outside shower. For comfort, all rooms have fans and air-conditioning. Amenities at Senalala Luxury Safari Camp include a big outdoor pool for guests to revitalize between morning and afternoon activities.

Covering an impressive 60 000 hectares of pristine wilderness, The Klaserie Private nature Reserve was established in 1972 as part of the greater Kruger National Park, and is one of the largest privately owned reserves in South Africa. Klaserie is prime Big Five territory and is home to lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo, as well as zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, hippos, hyenas and a host of antelope species.

Twice daily guests are taken on a game drive in open safari vehicles offering unobstructed views in all directions. The first game drive leaves soon after sunrise with a stop for coffee and tea in the bush. The second game drive departs in the late afternoon with a stop for sundowners where guests can watch the sun set over the African horizon. After the sun sets, we continue with a drive back to the lodge aided by a spotlight for night sightings.

Senalala is blessed with a diverse array of animal species and will lead you on a fascinating tour through the African bush. Just as the animals roam free, they too take their vehicles off-road for

special sightings, providing guests with a unique safari experience and allowing them to get tantalizingly close to Africa’s wildlife. Should you prefer a guided bush walk instead of a game drive, their professional and highly experienced guides will gladly accommodate this request. Appropriate for guests aged 16 and older, a walking safari offers guests the opportunity not only to track big game on foot (including the Big 5), but also to experience the more subtle and captivating aspects of bush ecology, including smaller wildlife, animal tracks and indigenous vegetation.

Winding its way through the craggy Drakensberg mountains of Mpumalanga and the north-eastern end of the Great Escarpment, the Panorama Route has some of the most dramatic landscape in the world. The best views are to be had on a clear winter's day when the mist and clouds of summer are nowhere in sight. At the edge of the plateau the land falls away beneath your feet and the vast Lowveld plains spread out about a kilometre below.

The most spectacular stretch of the Panorama Route is the Blyde River Canyon, which is the 3rd largest canyon in the world. From many well-positioned vantage points one has a view of the 33 km long gorge, which starts at "Bourke's Luck Potholes" and ends at the "Three Rondawels". The Potholes are very impressive rock formations that were shaped millions of years ago by erosion. The bizarre swirl holes developed when the once rapid river carried masses of sand and debris. Along this route you can stop at sites such as Berlin Falls, God’s Window, Pinnacle Point, Lisbon Falls, Mac Mac Falls and Sabie Falls.

Situated in the Sandford Conservancy on the banks of the Sabie River in Hazyview, Elephant Whispers offers an Elephant Experience of a lifetime which will leave you with a renewed respect and admiration for these gentle giants of Africa.

Elephant Whispers allows you to experience the thrill of being close to these magnificent creatures. Witness their intelligence, their compassionate nature and sheer delight of interacting with humans.

The Elephant Interaction offers you the opportunity to feel their constantly curious trunks, touch their rough skin, exchange trunk greetings and offer tasty treats, while learning about their behaviour and history from the Elephant Handlers.

As you approach the Falls and hear the water pounding and witness the vapour rising, you quickly understand why local tribesman called the Falls “Mosi-oa-Tunya” (the smoke that thunders) and why the explorer David Livingstone exclaimed that a scene “so lovely must have been gazed upon by angels in their flight”. The great columns of spray rising from the tumultuous falls can be seen from 80 kilometres away on a clear day. If you are lucky enough to be there at full moon, a "moonbow" can be seen in the spray instead of the usual daylight rainbow. Because the Victoria Falls fall into a chasm, rather than falling down an escarpment, it is possible to walk along the opposite side of the chasm, at the same height as the top of the Falls. From the unique walking trails the magnificence and glory of the Falls are head on and only about 60 metres (200 feet) away. The spray falls on the trails like soft rain, feeding the lush vegetation.

Victoria Falls is the unchallenged adventure capital of Africa with more than 50 activities available. Here is our selection of the best:

Tiger fishing:
Spend a half day on the Zambezi River fishing for one of the great freshwater game fish - The Tigerfish. These powerful, swift predators are truly thrilling to catch.

Canoeing:

Flight of Angels Helicopter Flip over the Falls:
At ground level you can feel the enormous power of the Victoria Falls as tremendous volumes of water pound into the chasm below. But it is only when you take to the air that you can take in the whole panorama and enormity of this mighty spectacle.

Bungi Jumping:
Bungi jump off the 111 metre high railway bridge into the Zambezi gorge, stopping just metres from the rushing water of the Zambezi River. This is a wild jump! There are two bungi options: A single jump on your own or a tandem jump with a partner.

White Water Rafting on the Zambezi River is acclaimed as the best one day white water rafting trip available in the world. There are different options for rafting depending on the time of year and the level of water in the river.

Jet Boat Extreme:
Speedboats powered by huge jet engines shoot down the rapids below the Victoria Falls at 100 km an hour. Enjoy a thrilling half hour spent “flying” over the water.

Follow in the footsteps of David Livingstone and travel up the Zambezi River above the Falls. There are several companies offering boat trips on the Zambezi River. Especially recommended is an evening sundowner boat cruise or a dinner cruise. As afternoon fades into twilight, animals come down to the river to drink as you go by.
