Then the 13 Days Kruger and Underberg takes you to Mpumalanga, a province in eastern South Africa. Divided by the Drakensberg Escarpment, Mpumalanga’s western region features grassland and is known as the Highveld, and the eastern region mostly comprises of savanna areas and is known as the Lowveld.

13 Days Kruger and Underberg
The 13 Days Kruger and Underberg package takes you to the Southern Drakensburg, a wonderland of woodlands, forests, lakes and rivers, all set against the dramatic backdrop of this spectacular mountain range. Several nature reserves fall into the area and protect a wide variety of flora and fauna, including some rare antelope species and, at Kamberg, a network of beautiful hiking trails lead to caves decorated with ancient Khoisan art. Trout thrive in the region’s reservoirs and waterways, making it a magnet for fly-fishermen, while horse riding and mountain biking are also popular pursuits in this scenic part of the world.

Kruger National Park – one of the world’s largest game reserves – boasts a number of wonderful private game reserves on the park’s western boundary. The private reserves boast excellent game viewing opportunities with Big 5 sightings, safari accommodation and game drives. Many of the game reserves offer other exciting features including bird watching, hot-air balloon flights, traditional dancing and waterholes where large groups of animals gather, making for amazing viewing opportunities.

The ultimate highlight of the Southern Drakenburg, however, is the Sani Pass, which – at almost 3,000 metres above sea level – is South Africa’s highest pass, leading all the way to the Lesotho border and offering magnificent vistas along the way.
Look no further than The Nicol when travelling to Johannesburg. Located in the leafy suburb of Bedfordview, Urban Hip Hotels’ flagship designer apartment hotel promises visitors a luxurious, comfortable and convenient stay. The Nicol’s interior and exterior design offers modern uncluttered clean lines.
