Big 5 Morning Private Safari (1 - 6 people)

Hoedspruit

Activity Description

A Premium Wildlife Experience
Start your day with the ultimate African adventure. Your private Big 5 Morning Safari departs from a designated collection point in Hoedspruit. Prefer a more convenient start? Chat to the Matumi Team to arrange pick-up directly from your accommodation.
This exclusive experience runs for approximately 3.5 to 4 hours and is ideal for couples, families, or groups looking for a more personal, crowd-free safari. Your private, open safari vehicle guarantees uninterrupted views and a front-row seat to the untamed beauty of the bush.
Led by expert, accredited nature guides, you’ll explore Big 5 territory and track iconic wildlife including lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, as well as an incredible variety of birds and smaller game. Our guides stay connected via a professional radio network to maximize your chances of remarkable sightings throughout the drive.
Midway through the safari, we’ll stop at a scenic spot to stretch your legs and enjoy fresh coffee, tea, and light snacks, a perfect moment to soak in the wilderness around you.
After an unforgettable morning on safari, you’ll return to your original departure point, with memories that will last a lifetime.

Customer Reviews

We had the most amazing private safari experience. Our Safari guide, Gert, made it so interesting. He was so knowledgeable and he took the time to impart his knowledge on so many facts of nature. We saw so many animals big and small and beautiful birds. We stopped for mid-morning coffee and rusks to appreciate the beauty around us. Gert also added his light hearted jokes during the journey which kept us smiling. - Raquel
