You will be offered a high tea at 15h30 in the lounge overlooking the waterhole before departing for an afternoon / evening game drive at 16h00.

Game drive safaris are conducted by professional rangers in open 4×4 vehicles.

Rhino Post also has the exclusive use of 170 kilometres of road within the Kruger after dark when other visitors are confined to camp.

Our afternoon drives stop for sundowner drinks and snacks at sunset before continuing into the night in search of wildlife. The drives return to the lodge in time for guests to freshen up and enjoy a drink before a sumptuous dinner on the deck.

Dinner is sometimes complimented by even more game viewing as animals come down to the waterhole to drink

Day 2:  Plains Camp Walking Safari 

Safari game drives and walking Safaris

Each morning at the lodge you will receive an early wake-up call, and will have time for a cup of tea or coffee, fruit, muffins or biscotti before heading out on your game drive.

The ideal time for game viewing is early morning and the late afternoon and evening as this is when many wild animals and birds are most active.

On the drive you may encounter a wide range of wildlife and your guide will surprise you by spotting animals and birds that those unused to the bush may not even notice.

Midway through your game drive, your guide will stop for a tea or coffee break before returning to the lodge.

Once back at the lodge, brunch will be served. Brunch is usually served between 10h00 and 10h30

At 14h00 we check out and you will be transferred by 4×4 to Plains Camp (home of Rhino Walking Safaris), a trip which takes about 30 minutes and is a mini-game drive in itself.

After settling into your 19th century explorer-style luxury tent and being shown around the camp, high tea is served

After your rangers have been through the safety precautions, you will set off on a Safari walk which is always an exhilarating experience. All walks are led by two armed guides.

You will later return to the vehicle in time for sundowners and enjoy a night drive before returning to camp for a excellent dinner around the camp fire.

Overnight:  Plains Camp  – Fully Inclusive of all meals  (brunch, high tea and dinner), cold drinks, house wine and local beers, teas & coffees, morning walk and afternoon walk/game drive

Day 3:  Walking Safari

All walking trails are enjoyed in the early morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday heat, with the average duration of the morning walk being between 3 and 4 hours.

During the morning walk there is a stop for a rest and light snack.

Walking through the bush heightens all the senses and offers visitors unrivalled opportunities to become immersed in the rhythms of nature.

A hearty brunch is served after getting back from the morning walk. Time to have a nap or enjoy the camps pool and viewing deck.

High tea is followed by an afternoon walk and then an evening game drive.

Drinks around the fire, followed by dinner complete the day.
