Departure: Pick-up at accommodation
The day starts with a pick-up at your lodge or hotel. With knowledgeable guides at the helm, it is sure to be an unforgettable adventure that can be tailored to personal preferences. The flexible itinerary allows for extended times at certain stops, or by adding and removing stops like the Graskop Gorge Glass Lift, Pilgrims Rest or Sabie. These need to be made at least 24 hours before departure.
