Your journey begins with a morning departure from your Johannesburg hotel/accommodation and/or O.R. Tambo International Airport, traveling through scenic countryside on a 2.5-hour drive to the Black Rhino Private Reserve, part of Pilanesberg National Park. Upon arrival, you are welcomed at Lush Private Game Lodge, an intimate, eco-luxury retreat blending modern design with the natural beauty of the bushveld. After check-in, enjoy a freshly prepared lunch before settling into your elegant suite, featuring a private deck that opens onto untouched wilderness. In the late afternoon, join your first open-vehicle game drive led by a professional ranger. As the sun begins to set, you’ll have the opportunity to see Africa’s elephant, rhino, and buffalo, as well as other wildlife moving through the reserve. After the drive, return to the lodge for dinner under the stars, accompanied by fine wine and exceptional cuisine inspired by African flavours.
