After some serious game spotting we break for a well deserved hearty brunch at one of Kruger's beautiful picnic spots. With our delicious brunch completed, we make our way whilst spotting more animals; to the world renowned Lower Sabie Camp, which is rumored to be the top camp in the park. Once the sun has set and the dusty land has settled for the night we experience a truly South African braai under the incredibly beautiful African skies as the stars shine down, creating the most stunning ambience. Day three: Day three we once again awaken with the call of the animals as they also begin another day. We make our way out of Kruger National Park, seeking out the various animals not yet spotted as we head towards the exit gate and begin our journey to another amazing country: Mozambique. Once we have completed the hustle and bustle of Border formalities (Please note that Visas are needed to visit Mozambique so please consider this when planning your holiday budget) We are welcomed to the tranquil coastal town of Bilene. The remainder of the day is filled with plenty relaxation under the sunny skies with the Indian ocean sparkling before us. Whether a sparking swim in the ocean or a leisurely walk on the golden sands of the beach are order of the day to complete this absolute splendid day, we gather for an enjoyable dinner whilst drinking in the true beauty of the beach and sea together where a perfect sunset ends a perfect day. Day four: As the sun rises on day four and we lazily stretch and take in the salty breezy sea air as we hear the ocean murmuring in the distance we know today promises plenty of rest and relaxation on the beach. With a wide variety of choices – you decide what will today bring: sunbathing? Fishing? Snorkeling or a day of exploring and visiting the locals? The world is your oyster in Bilene! As the evening descends upon us with a dinner of fresh fish bought at the local market – nothing better after sun-fun filled day then a fish braai on the beach with your best mates! As tomorrow promises a hive of excitement as we head out to the city of Maputo….. Day Five: We relax and enjoy a leisurely breakfast before we pack up and leave the tranquil town of Bilene and venture into he capital city of Mozambique, Maputo where we do a bit of sight seeing in this awesome city. The history is plentiful in this cosmopolitan city. A must is a visit to the local market. As the sunsets and the night envelopes us, we dine out on fresh seafood in abundance that is from the fish market as we enjoy the ambience of the local Portuguese restaurants of Mozambique. After indulging on as much seafood as we can eat we party the night away at one of the local jazz clubs. Day Six: As the sea air filters through our bedrooms we stretch and start packing up as we leave the sea and head into the beautiful hills and greenery of Swaziland. Filled with miles and miles of natural beauty we wind up at Sonzela Game Park. Where we once again challenge our cameras to capture even better photos of the wild animals than the incredible pictures we took in Kruger. After a relaxing dinner discussing our awesome day we settle for a well deserved rest and look forward to exploring Swaziland in the morning. Day Seven: As the sun rises stretches its golden rays across the beautiful green landscape known as Swaziland we check that we are wearing our most comfy shoes, that our camera's batteries are fully charged and we set out to explore all that Swaziland is famous for. The history and amazing traditions that makes up their cultural village. The have to see, world renowned Candle making factory with their wide variety of candles and trinkets. Last and not least we discover the hustle and bustle of the local market – a bargain or two to be found. We enjoy a quiet restful last evening in Swaziland as we sadly reflect back over our awesome 8 Day Bush, Beach and 3 countries adventure. Day Eight: After last minute checks that all our souvenirs and cameras storing all our awesome memories are safely packed away we wave goodbye to the beauty and traditions of Swaziland.

Be inspired, enlightened, educated and enthused by this memorable and respectful opportunity to meet and learn more about some of the Jabulani herd elephants and their passionate carers. Arrive at sunrise to meet a few members of an extraordinary family, the Jabulani Herd. Delve deeper into the biology and physiology of these gentle giants while learning about each elephant's unique personalities and remarkable stories. The respectful 90-minute experience takes place at the Jabulani elephant stables, which borders the HERD elephant orphanage. The Orphanage does not allow the public to visit their premises or to view the orphans, to keep their stress levels to a minimum. The Jabulani Herd elephants that you will meet represent the rest of the herd which they join a little later to continue foraging during their days in the Kapama Private Reserve. There will be between two to three elephants introduced who remain behind a low partition creating a respectful distance between the elephants and the visitors. Visitors will have an opportunity to provide some elephant snacks to each elephant, as well as a chance to take a snapshot memory of the memorable experience, with the guidance of the carers. Complimentary coffee and tea with biscuits will be provided upon arrival and available to enjoy until the end of the experience. Following your Elephant Moments experience, you will have the opportunity to purchase a souvenir in our gift shop, with proceeds going towards the HERD TRUST.
