4 Day Radisson Kruger Safari with Private Game Drives 2026

Depart on the 07:00 shuttle from OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg to the Radisson Hotel in Hoedspruit. You will arrive in time for lunch around 12:30, and check-in by 14:00.

Your first private safari excursion is a 3- hour sunset drive in an open safari vehicle in the pristine 15 300 hectares Blue Canyon Reserve, departing around 15:00.

Your guide will do his best to find some of Africa’s rarest and most iconic wildlife species, including rhinos, elephants, lions, cheetahs and leopards, for you.

Enjoy a majestic African sunset over the bushveld, with sundowners and snacks, before heading back to the hotel for dinner at 18:30.

You and your group will depart around 5:00 with your private guide in an open safari vehicle and enter Kruger National Park at Orpen Gate.

You will stop for snacks and lunch at a rest camp, and continue the safari until around 15:00, when you turn around and head back to the hotel.

On a full-day private Panorama Route Tour your guide will take you to iconic attractions like 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.

On the route your guide will show you several stunning waterfalls, you will enjoy gorgeous vistas, and other natural phenomena.

Alternatively, you can request that your guide take you on another private full day Kruger safari instead of the Panorama Route tour.

You can either enjoy some free time at the hotel or do an optional 3-hour private morning safari (at own cost, around R5500), once again with your own guide in a private game viewing vehicle.

Back at the hotel you can enjoy a late breakfast before catching the shuttle back to OR Tambo International Airport.
