From a relaxing start viewing wildlife in the Hlane Royal National Park in Swaziland, you head up to the Mozambiquan border.

You'll spend a week exploring the untouched coastline of Mozambique and the picturesque and pristine surrounding islands.

After sunning and relaxing, your trip takes you to the world-renowned Visas are the responsibility of the traveller and that the Whichway Adventure Company will not be held responsible for clients being denied entry should they not be in the possession of the relevant visas.
  

You depart Johannesburg and travel through scenic Mpumalanga until you reach the border to the Kingdom of Swaziland.

Crossing the border, you arrive at Hlane Royal National Park which is home to lion, elephant, white rhino and diverse birdlife. The 30 000ha nature reserve offers a wide variety of optional activities and excursions accompanied by a local ranger.

Today you leave Swaziland behind you and cross into Mozambique.

You travel north along the ocean and experience the beautiful vistas of the Mozambique coast. In the late afternoon you arrive at your camp for the next 2 nights. You can end your day with a dip in the warm Indian Ocean.

There are many optional activities on offer such as fishing, scuba diving and snorkelling, as well as time to relax on the beautiful beach.

Scuba diving can be done on the morning of Day 4 before departing to Morrungulo. Please book it today at the dive centre in town.

Today you depart Praia do Tofo and drive north to Vilanculos.

There is an opportunity to cross by dhow or speedboat to the islands in the Bazaruto Archipelago where you can relax 'island style', snorkel or just soak up the sun. If you decide not to go to the islands, then Vilanculos offers many interesting sights.

If you want to do the optional Bazaruto Excursion then on the morning of the 2nd day you take a dhow to Benguerra Island. The dhow trip takes about 2 hours, and if you are lucky you might see dolphins during the crossing.

You arrive back fairly late, so you spend the night in Vilanculos before returning to the Inhambane area the next day.

Driving south through beautiful coconut plantations, you pass through the Old European settlement of Inhambane, haunted by the memories of the old slave trade along the coast.

In the afternoon you arrive at your campsite for the next 2 days, which is right on the beach. You will have a full day to partake in the various optional activities here, including horse riding and quad biking.

From Inhambane you drive further south to the bustling capital of Mozambique. You arrive in Maputo, previously known as Lourenzo Marques, in the afternoon.

Maputo is still a poverty stricken city but is slowly recreating some of its former glory. Highlights worth visiting include the Fort of Nossa Senhora da Conceiao and the Central Railway Station. You can spend the rest of the day exploring and experiencing this truly African city.

Today you return to South Africa to the world-famous Kruger National Park, where you have the chance to spot Africa's Big 5 - lion, rhino, elephant, leopard and buffalo.

2 nights are spent in this magnificent area viewing game and taking photos. The South African National Parks offer informative dawn game walks and night drives in the park (accompanied by a ranger). These are excellent for seeing the smaller animals and experiencing the wilderness.

You leave Kruger behind you and visit a Cheetah Breeding Centre, where you take part in an educational tour on wildlife rehabilitation.

On this, the last full day of your trip, you will be travelling the Panorama Route through some spectacular scenery. Blyde River Canyon, the 3rd largest canyon in the world, offers breathtaking view points, including God’s Window and 3 Rondavels.

The Bourke’s Luck Potholes are the fascinating results of erosion caused by the Treur River. You camp for the night in the heart of the Panorama Route.

Today you head back to Johannesburg where your tour comes to an end. Most groups will arrange dinner together this evening in one of Johannesburg's many excellent restaurants.
