Golf like a Pro: Player and Matkovich Version 1 | Page 7
DAY 5
Destination: Kruger National Park
……………………………………………………………………………
At the break of dawn, a gentle tap on the door will
awaken you. You will drink a cup of coffee or tea and
meet your Ranger to discuss the day’s itinerary and
your expectations of the Safari.
The Safari drive takes place in an open 4x4 vehicle
which enables you to experience close encounters and
unforgettable moments with various animals.
During the outing, your Ranger informs you about the
flora and fauna of the bush and the way of living of
the various animals. Upon your return to the Lodge, a
substantial breakfast is served.
After breakfast you will enjoy another round of golf on
the Leopard Creek Golf Course.
Gary Player has designed a course with changing
elevations, fast greens, excellent bunkering and
endless water hazards. The downhill par 5 9th hole
combines all elements of this wonderfully situated
championship course.
At approximately 4 o’clock, afternoon tea and homebaked treats are served at the Lodge. You will then
embark on a late afternoon game drive. You will again
be guided by a pathfinder, who will show you the
inhabitants of the bush and provides the ranger with
important information.
After the traditional sundowner, the trip continues
and headlights will be switched so you can also
observe nocturnal animals.
On return to the camp dinner is already waiting for
you, either in the dining room or under the endless
South African night sky.
