Arrive at Erindi Game Reserve and check into Old Traders Lodge. Remember to enjoy the scenic beauty of the reserve as you drive in. Upon checking in, you will be escorted to your luxury suite. Settle in and enjoy lunch on the deck overlooking the waterhole.
Get ready for your first game drive in Erindi Game Reserve. Look out for elephants, lions, and a variety of antelope species. Dinner will be enjoyed under the stars next to the fire.
Start your day with an early morning game drive, which is the perfect time as the animals are more active. Return to the lodge for a hearty breakfast and enjoy the rest of the day lounging by the pool. Enjoy lunch and partake in an afternoon high tea, which is a delightful lodge tradition.
In the afternoon, hop on the safari vehicle for another game drive, where you may possibly view different animals and other parts of the reserve. On return to the lodge, you'll have time to freshen up for dinner under the stars.
Start the morning with your final breakfast and refreshments. Depending on your travel plans, you may have time for one last morning activity before checking out. Drive back to the airport to drop off the car rental and embark on the rest of your journey.

3rd Safari. Best Service Ever.
For our South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana safari trip I went to Safari.com to do the planning. I gave them where we wanted to go, what we wanted to do, and how many days to do it in. Sara became my planner. I would add that we do 2-3 international trips each year; me doing the initial planning, a local agency doing the details. Sara was one of the best. Her communications were clear and to the point. She understood the many many many questions I asked and responded each time rapidly. We changed the itinerary many many many times and her responses showed how knowledgeable and experienced she is. I was so impressed I contacted her boss Oliver to express my satisfaction with everything she and Safari.com provided. We booked and now look forward to our third African safari. Sara, we thank you.
