For this trip, we stay in Marloth Park and enter Crocodile Bridge every day for our game drives. Enjoy the Lodge and watch zebras, kudu, impala, and wharthogs come quite close as we sit on the deck and early evening watch the Bushbabies wake up and start exploring.

Day 1: Sunday 5 May

We depart early morning from Johannesburg to avoid any peak hour traffic.  We travel toward Nelspruit with lunch en route. Arrive at Needles Lodge late afternoon, and check-in for the next 4 nights. All dinners will be at the Lodge – either in the Boma or on the deck. Enjoy all the animals around the Lodge and wait for the Bushbabies to wake up for the night and watch them jumping around.

Day 2: Monday 6 May
