Day 1 - Johannesburg to Mapesu Game Reserve
Leave Johannesburg in the morning and arrive at Mapesu Game Reserve in the afternoon. Enjoy a late afternoon or sunset drive on the reserve, or have sundowners at the pool. Depending on the weather, dinner is served under the stars in the boma, on the lawn, in the dining room, or lapa.
Day 2: Mapungubwe National Park
Wake up early and go on a morning tour of Mapungubwe Hill and the World Heritage Site led by South African National Parks guides. Visit the Hamilton baobab on the way back to the lodge and have a well-deserved brunch.

Dinner is served around a fire in the boma under the African stars.
Day 3: Mapungubwe National Park
Before breakfast you can join a local guide to view unique Limpopo Valley San Rock Art, painted around 4000 years ago. Have brunch at the lodge and relax until a late afternoon game drive to the Maloutswa Hide to check out the elephants, other game and birds that frequent the waterhole.
Dinner is again served under the stars.
Day 4: Mapungubwe to Johannesburg
