Next stop will be at the stunning Lisbon Falls (highest falls in the region).

Day 3 – Kruger Bushwalk + Transfer
This adventure filled day will starts early with a 3 to 4-hour morning Bushwalk that departs around 05h00. The Bushwalk will give you a chance to encounter some of Africa's magnificent fauna and flora on foot and truly feel a part of nature.
Enjoy breakfast back at camp, from where your guide will take a slow drive to the exit gate that will provide you with a last opportunity to spot the wildlife that have eluded you the previous days. Once out of the park, enjoy the scenic drive back to Johannesburg which will take approximately 5 - 6 hours with a comfort stop along the way, where you will also have an opportunity to buy lunch. Arrive at your specified Johannesburg Destination in the afternoon where unfortunately your Safari will come to an end.
(It is important to have the correct perspective when embarking on a Bushwalk, although there is the opportunity of seeing the Big Five, this is not the main aim of a Kruger Bushwalk. The aim is to facilitate an experience that embraces some of the fundamental values of Wilderness; solitude, timelessness, freedom from a world where human is in control, and a place where the sounds and ways of nature pervade).
- The Bushwalk can be substituted with a Sunrise Open vehicle Kruger Game drive.
