Day 1
Arrival and Sunset Walking Safari
Arrive at Hoedspruit Airport and enjoy a warm welcome as you are transferred to your elegant safari lodge, set in the heart of the bush. After settling into your luxury room, take a moment to relax and absorb the sights and sounds of the wilderness. In the late afternoon, set out on a guided walking safari with an experienced ranger. Stroll quietly through the bush as you learn about animal tracks, bird calls, and the small wonders that are often missed on a vehicle safari. As the sun begins to set, pause in a scenic spot for a refreshing aperitif and watch the African sky turn brilliant shades of gold and crimson. Return to camp with the night sounds beginning to stir and end the day with a delicious dinner beneath a canopy of stars, surrounded by the gentle flicker of lanterns and the calls of the wild.

Wake up to the soft sounds of the bush and enjoy a hearty breakfast before setting off on a full-day safari in the iconic Kruger National Park. Travel in a comfortable safari vehicle with a knowledgeable guide, exploring diverse habitats from open savannahs to dense riverine forests. Keep your camera ready as you search for the Big Five — lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino — along with countless other species, from towering giraffes to graceful antelope and colorful birdlife. Lunch is served during your adventure, giving you time to relax and soak in the breathtaking surroundings. With expert interpretation from your guide, you will gain a deeper understanding of this extraordinary ecosystem. As the day draws to a close, return to your lodge for a well-prepared dinner and perhaps a quiet evening sharing safari stories around the table.

5.0/5Macdonald was extremely friendly, patient and knowledgeable.
We had a wonderful Winelands tour with Macdona with Knap tours. We were picked up on time and enjoyed our drive to the Stellenbosch area. We visited 3 wineries and had delicious tastings at each. Macdonald also brought us to a restaurant in the town of Stellenbosch, The Wine Glass, and we had a wonderful conversation with Macdonald at lunch. The wineries visited were wonderful. The last one also had olive oils to sample. The Vineyards were top tier and we enoyed the beautiful scenery during the drive. We also used Knap tours to pick us up at the airport and bring us to our hotel when we arrived in Cape Town. Macdonald greeted us after we exoted baggage cllaim with our name on a sign,.no waiting! We highly this awesime service. We already have booked our airport drop offs with them as well.

A service that puts you at ease
From start to finish, the process was seamless. Contacted them initially to enquire about a transfer and they responded within 20 mins with all the information needed. Price was so reasonable in comparison to other transfer options. A WhatsApp group was made the day before with times and information provided. Simba transferred us from Cape Town to Sanbona wildlife reserve and his service was exceptional. Arrived promptly, put us at ease the entire journey, allowing us to stop when needed, providing great tunes and giving us really interesting information on the area. Took a beautiful scenic route. Cannot recommend enough and would advise checking with this company first before taking the transfers offered by the places you are going as they are usually double in price.

Brilliant organisation at very short notice
Julian put together our last-minute three-day safari trip to Namibia at one day’s notice and stayed in touch to make sure all the arrangements went smoothly (they did). He responded immediately to our initial enquiry. We were met at the airport by our driver/guide Jeff, who was excellent, knowledgeable and attentive, so our experience in Etosha National Park was truly amazing. We would thoroughly recommend Knap Tours.
