The deck offers up-close wildlife viewing opportunities as you relax before dinner.
"If you arrive early enough, there may be time to enjoy a guided bush walk along the Crocodile River."
Day 2: Full-Day Game Drive Experience
After a restful night, begin the day early at 05:30 with a full-day game drive. Early mornings provide the best chance to spot predators. Throughout the drive, your guide will share detailed insights into the natural environment and animal behaviour, visiting key wildlife hotspots and bird hides.
Breakfast packs will be enjoyed at a rest camp or picnic site, and lunch will be served at one of the park’s rest camps.
Return to the lodge in the late afternoon to unwind, followed by dinner.
