Inspiration for your own tailor-made trip
Madikwe & The Waterberg,Southern Mozambique & Bazaruto Archipelago
100% customisable for you
Your holiday gets off to a flying (quite literally) start this evening, with a direct overnight flight from London to Johannesburg. Make your way to the airport, check in and then settle in on board for the next 11 hours.
The next two days will be spent on safari from your lodge. You'll explore the beautiful Marakele National Park in the heart of the Waterberg Mountains in search of animals aplenty, including the fabled 'Big Five' of lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos and buffaloes. Choose to go out on the daily morning and evening game drives (complete with morning tea or sundowners on the way back to camp), or bush walks, water safaris on the dam for sunrise or sunset, birding experiences and astronomy focused night sky safaris.
In between the active wildlife watching you'll also want to spend lazy afternoons by the pool or wandering through the lodge grounds to find the most stunning viewing spots. Whichever lodge you're based at, a special bush dinner or breakfast is also highly recommended as it gives you opportunity to really take in the remote and unspoilt landscapes.
You've had your fill of bush adventures, now it's time for some on the beach. Get up nice and early for your transfer to Johannesburg Airport, then check in and board the flight to Vilanculos Airport in Mozambique. Once you've landed a member of our team will be waiting to greet you and transfer you just 15 minutes to your beach base.
Spend the rest of today settling in and enjoying the views across the Bazaruto Archipelago from the beach. When the sun starts to set, sip on sundowners before indulging in a fresh seafood dinner.
