Pick up your rental vehicle from the Durban airport and drive to Tembe Elephant Park Lodge, which is approximately 4 hours from the airport. You will receive a welcome drink upon arrival, and then settle in and enjoy an afternoon game drive (time permitting).

Shared afternoon game drive
The morning game drive starts at sunrise. You will be woken up before sunrise for a coffee and a light cold breakfast before the game drive starts. Then you are off for 3 hours to find as many animals as possible before they all find trees to hide under in the heat of the day. You will stop at the hide to observe animals at the watering hole.
When the game drive returns to the lodge, you will be served a warm cooked breakfast and have time to relax. You can sit by the pool, read a book, take a nap and just absorb being out in the bush.
The afternoon game drive will start around 15:00. You will return to the lodge in the dark, with a spotlight to look for nocturnal animals.
