Discover the Perfect Blend of Adventure and Relaxation


Flywire’s recent survey of the luxury travel industry revealed an important truth: travellers are seeking a trusted provider. They want someone who will take care of all their needs, offer personal attention, and, above all, provide time to reset and reconnect with nature. We believe that our customised, small group tours are exactly what the luxury traveller is looking for in 2026 and beyond.


A Unique Safari Experience


Our customised safari tour is unique. While it is not a retreat, it is designed to give you the retreat experience. Imagine starting your day with an early morning yoga flow session. Picture yourself enjoying a healthy breakfast that overlooks the vast African bush. Afterward, you can spend the rest of the morning relaxing by the pool, soaking in the serene surroundings.


Engaging with Local Conservation Efforts


After a delightful lunch, we will head out to a jewellery-making workshop. Here, you will learn about poaching, conservation, and the collection of snare wires. Guests will transform these materials into beautiful bracelets, serving as a meaningful reminder of their time in the bush. Dinner awaits you at the lodge, where you can share stories and connect with fellow travellers.


Exploring Blyde Canyon


The next day begins with an early breakfast, followed by a trip to the breathtaking Blyde Canyon. We will embark on a boat cruise on the Blydepoort Dam, surrounded by stunning landscapes. Upon returning to the lodge, a relaxing somatic yoga session awaits, preparing you for a delicious lunch. The afternoon is yours to enjoy—whether lounging by the pool or taking a bush walk in the wilderness area of Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate.


Thrilling Game Viewing in Kruger National Park


The next three days are dedicated to game viewing in the world-famous Kruger National Park. Here, you will experience the thrill of encountering wildlife in their natural habitat. Our experienced guides will lead you on open game drive vehicles, ensuring you don’t miss a moment of this extraordinary adventure.


Relaxation in White River


To conclude your tour, you will spend two nights in White River, another scenic town alongside Kruger National Park. This is your time to unwind. Indulge in spa treatments, lounge by the pool, or explore the picturesque Panorama Route.


Your All-Inclusive Wildlife and Wellness Safari


The Wildlife and Wellness Safari is a 7-night, 8-day itinerary that takes care of all your needs. We offer luxury accommodation, delicious and healthy meals, and include all the activities mentioned above. This is more than just a trip; it’s an opportunity to connect deeply with nature and yourself.
