Guests are picked up early in Johannesburg and driven to Pilanesberg Game Reserve in Greater Pilanesberg in a closed air-conditioned vehicle (Minivan).
At arriving in the park, you will enjoy a closed vehicle safari drive before checking into Lush Safari Lodge around noon. You will enjoy a light lunch and relax a while, before it’s time to depart for a late-afternoon open-vehicle game drive in the Pilanesberg Game Reserve.
You return to the lodge as the sun is setting and may enjoy a starlit dinner around the firepit, weather permitting.
