Dramatic Landscapes of Panorama Route And Kruger Safari Transfer
Dramatic Landscapes of Panorama Route And Kruger Safari Transfer
Panorama Routeto Kruger Safari
For KrisFlyer members only
Highlights
This tour is private just you and the guide in the vehicle it can be added to any safari and used as your transfer from Joburg or Pretoria to your safari in the Kruger National Park. The Panorama Route is an area of astounding scenic beauty around the edge of the highveld escarpment where the traveler descends from over 2000 meters to almost sea level through astounding mountain passes, past lakes, and rivers, and forested slopes with tumbling waterfalls. It is an attraction in its own right which would draw international visitors without Kruger Park being nearby. One should try to take the opportunity of visiting it ideally on a one-night stay over the trip on your way to/from your Kruger Park safari. It is more or less on the route and so it makes good sense to do this.
Itinerary
Johannesburg/Pretoria/Nelspruit/Hoedspruit to the village of Graskop at the centre of the Panorama Route

1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedDepending on timing we will visit the Graskop Gorge descending into its green depths in the newly built lift.Graskop

You will have bed and breakfast and dinner here or at another restaurant.Food And DrinksLunchDinner
Panorama Route/Kruger National Park
Lisbon Falls
30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedOne of the most beautiful of all the falls especially when in full flow. There is a large craft market here too where local ladies sell their handmade goods.God's Window
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedFrom Graskop, the road rises up to the edge of the escarpment that looks over the "Lowveld" at the bottom of South Africa's central highlands. This warmer more tropical region stretches past Kruger Park to the Mozambique coast. Besides the wild area of the Kruger, there are many groves of subtropical fruits, mangoes, bananas, pineapples, avocadoes, citrus, macadamia nuts and vast areas of sugar cane. God's Window is a very popular viewpoint which is easily reached in a few minutes from the car park. But above it and after a healthy walk you reach a small rain forest with rare plants and trees indigenous to just this location and after walking through it you reach another stunning viewpoint.Bourkes' Luck Potholes
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedThe Blyde River which later forms the kilometer-deep canyon is joined here by the Treur River before it descends to the Canyon. The legend has it that there was a party of Boers with their families traveling through the area. They camped by the Treur River and the men left them to go on a hunt. They were gone for many days causing some worry to the womenfolk and children. They did return unscathed and when they camped the next day beside another river they called them the Treur ( sad) and the Blyde ( happy) rivers. The scouring action of the rapid-flowing rivers joining together has formed beautiful and fascinating shapes in the rocks of the rivers' beds.Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve
1 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedWe usually proceed to the Three Rondawels viewpoint which gives the best views both down into the Canyons depths and over it to the round-topped mountains called the Three Rondawels because of their similarity to the African round huts by the same nameAbel Erasmus Pass
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeIf you are proceeding to Kruger Park Lodges adjacent to Hoedspruit ( e.g.Orpen Gate, Timbavati, Manyaleti, Satara, Letaba and Olifants) from Johannesburg/Pretoria then you will cross the Abel Erasmus Pass or if doing this tour in reverse by returning to Joburg/Pretoria from lodges near or in these places you will also cross Abel Erasmus Pass. Charecterised by towering cliff walls on either side of the road that block out the sun the pass undulates up and down many times and there is a tunnel to be traversed. in the middle of it This pass has got one of the world's few tufa waterfalls. The waterfalls edge actually grows outwards due to high concentrations of calcium dissolved in the water getting deposited along the flow bed. At the bottom of the pass you may see a baobab tree or two as this is the southern limit of this trees habitat.Beneath you is the Olifants River that flows on through the Kruger to join the Limpopo in Mozambique.- Food And DrinksBreakfastLunch
