Today brings a new experience with a full day excursion to the awe-inspiring Panorama Route. One of South Africa's most scenic regions, the Panorama Route refers to the escarpment in Mpumalanga Province, where the Drakensberg mountains separate the Highveld from the Lowveld to the east.

It's easy to see why it's such a famous tourist attraction; the area is replete with stunning waterfalls, gorgeous vistas, and natural phenomena, as well as a breath-taking canyon. On this full-day tour you will visit such iconic attractions as the Blyde River Canyon, Bourke's Luck Potholes, and God's Window.

You also have the chance to explore local towns and enjoy scenic viewpoints along the route, before returning to your lodge in the evening in time for dinner.

On your last morning, you have the choice to unwind at the lodge for the day or join an optional 3-hour morning safari adventure (additional R1350).

After breakfast you will take a shuttle back to OR Tambo International Airport for your departure.
