South African Safari - Royal Morubisi

The days that follow combine early morning and late afternoon game drives with the chance to spot the Big 5—lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos and buffalo—alongside smaller wildlife and birdlife. One morning includes a bush walk to observe animal tracks up close, followed by a river cruise on the Mokolo River to watch hippos and crocodiles from a sundowner boat.

The lodge’s setting beside the river means evenings can be spent dining outdoors by a lantern-lit fire pit or relaxing in a bar with an open fire. Conservation and research underpin the reserve’s ethos, and guests have the opportunity to learn about ongoing projects during a talk from the team. The tour concludes with a return to Johannesburg and a flight back to the UK.
