ABOUT ASKARI GAME LODGE
Situated on the Plumari Private Game Reserve in the Magaliesberg, just over an hour from Johannesburg or Pretoria, Askari Game Lodge gives guests a chance to view the big 5.
In celebration of the rich history of the area, Askari Game Lodge has a Market Day on the first Sunday of every month, where guests and visitors can enjoy home-made ginger beer, old fashioned sweets, crafts and good food from 10h00 till 2h00. The craft market tables are set amongst the ox-wagon collection and inside the Plumari Heritage Museum and makes for an wonderful Sunday out in the countryside.
ACCOMMODATION
The main lodge overlooks the Elephant Dam and invites guests to take a step back in time while admiring South African décor pieces dating back to the 1800’s. Slipper baths, a coal stove, wash stands, luggage chests, antique Oregon cupboards and tables are subtly placed within the luxury four-star surrounding, to emphasize the captivating history of the Magaliesberg area.
Askari Lodge has one of the largest private collections of ox wagons, carts and other animal drawn vehicles from the period 1800 to 1900. A variety of stone and iron-age arte facts, items from the Boer War and San Bushmen rock carvings tell the history of the area, which is also known for the nearby Battle of Nooitgedacht. Examples are available in the museum and guided bush walks take guests through areas where many stone carvings can be found.
Askari Lodge caters for romantic getaways, conferences, teambuilding initiatives, training courses and weddings. Nature lovers and birding enthusiasts will find the experience most rewarding, while stressed city dwellers will leave feeling rejuvenated and well-rested.
THE SPA
Askari Spa at Askari Game Lodge reflects the environment that surrounds it – African veldt and wildlife rise up to meet the African sky and majestic Magaliesberg mountain range. This Big 5 Game lodge is scenically set between Hekpoort and Magalieburg and pays tribute to South Africa’s rich archeological and cultural history within a malaria-free environment.
Soothe away the stress of modern life and dissolve impurities, under the gentle fingers of our therapists. The benefits to body and spirit will be truly rewarding.

Kruger National Park! How to do a safari in the Kruger National Park? (By car or guided tour)
A safari to the Kruger National Park! Is that the right decision? YES!
We booked our tour here (a combo ticket hop on hop off bus + Safari tour):
We booked our tour with Baz Bus which are offering a four day safari trip to the Kruger National Park operated by Selous African Safari and Tours. So how is the tour?
Campsite:
The campsite is great. You can sleep in a proper room or in tents. Selous African Safari and Tours offers a campsite with electricity, clean water, showers, toilets, great food (seriously the food is the best - the have wonderful vegetarian options). They even have a great dinning area now and a pool to cool off!
Kruger National Park:
You enter the Kruger National Park at the Orpen Gate. The entrance fee for the park is included of course. When we visited the Kruger National Park in February, it was not that crowded. We saw a lot of great animals (almost saw the big five): elephants, giraffes, lions, rhinos, hippos, bulls, zebras, .... we only missed the leopard. You will definetily see great wildlife! In total you will spend two days in the Kruger National Park! Plus one day arriving and one day leaving! We also visited an animal shelter and Blyde River Canyon.
Baz Bus:
You can buy a combo ticket - hop on hop off ticket (from Johannesburg to Cape Town) + Kruger National Park.

Kruger Park 4 day Safari South Africa Trip
Our second part of our vacation in South Africa was to Kruger Park. We started and ended in Johannesburg, so I've put that in separate videos and in this video I'd like to share most of the wonderful animal sightings we had.
There is no way to show what it is like to be there in person and actually being face to face with a wild lion or elephant, but I hope I was able to give a good feeling of what our trip was like in Kruger Park.
I would love to hear what you think about the travel videos, I know they are not run related like most of my videos, but I want to share this beautiful experience with you. Since I travel for a lot of my races I would love to hear if this is something you'd like me to share more often.

Safari Tour // South Africa!!
First of all, sorry about all of the shaky footage. The roads are obviously very bumpy out there, and the camera stabilizer can only do so much lol. But we went o na safari tour the day after landing in Johannesburg and it was dope. At first we weren't seeing many animals, so we were a little discouraged, but by the middle of the trip, they were popping up left and right.

It's my 3rd time in Johannesburg and my 2nd time in Lion and Safari Park (Eriko and Matteo's 1st time!!!)
For more info about Lion and Safari Park, you can check them out at
I forgot to mention that you need to pay additional ZAR70 for the cheetah interaction because it's not part of your ticket.
The park is very child friendly so if you're gonna visit Johannesburg, don't forget to add the Lion and Safari Park in your TO VISIT list.
Trumps by the way is my favorite restaurant in Johannesburg, its cheap, yummy and wine/alcoholic drinks are free (for me and my colleagues only!!!)

African Wildlife Safari at Kruger National Park, South Africa
If you gave me a list of only 10 more bucket-list travel experiences I could potentially have for the rest of my life, experiencing an African wildlife safari would be right near the top. After making the long bus journey from Johannesburg to Kruger National Park, I couldn't believe this - once in a lifetime - experience was finally about to happen. Waking up at the crack of dawn, we boarded our Land Rover and drove off in the dark to the gates of Kruger National Park. It wasn't long before we witnessed sunrise and our first animal encounter spotting prancing impalas.

The highlights of our first day of safari included spotting a pride of Lions including getting up close views of lioness affectionately licking her cubs and an Alpha male resting in the foreground. Lunchtime, was equally as eventful as I was bombed (shitted on) by two birds eager to grab scraps of our meal.
As the day progressed we spotted giraffes on a frequent basis. Two male giraffes fought swinging their heads violently at one another often landing direct blows to knees. Out of all the violent animal encounters I could have potentially witnessed, gazing at fighting giraffes was not something I would have ever anticipated.
The day ended with an epic sunset featuring a generous portion of crackers, cookies, cheese and wine. On the way back, when the sun had gone down, we used a flashlight to try and spot more animals. Our guide Lloyd, has an acutely trained eye and without his assistance we may have only spotted impalas ourselves ;)
African Wildlife Safari at Kruger National Park, South Africa Travel Video Transcript:
Okay, so today is the big day. Yesterday afternoon we reached the outskirts of Kruger National Park and today we're actually going in to spot some of the wildlife. So we're going in for a sunrise drive. It is really earlier. It is about 5:15 am right now. We're going to head into the park and - yeah - it is safari time!
Okay, so we finally reached the park and I'm going to give you a little tour of our cool truck for the day. Come on over. Come on in.
Make that big climb up there. Yeah, I'm in.
One thing that totally surprised me was just how close we got to the lions. I think it was only about 10 meters away from the road.
So they were really docile and the lioness was just sleeping and cleaning its cubs and in the back there was the big alpha male just stretching and yawning. It was surreal.
So that's been an amazing safari so far. It is only 10 in the morning and we've already seen more wildlife than I ever imagined. We saw lions, elephants, wildebeest. Oh, gosh more than I can even remember. Yeah, it was amazing and we were able to get up close and have a good look at them. So it has been so much fun.
So tell us what happened to you at lunchtime today? So the most ridiculous thing happened to me during lunch. A bird shit right here. It ricochet of off my shoulder all the way down to here. And while I was still recovering from the shock from that another bird shitted on this side. So I got hit on both shoulders but apparently if a bird shits on you it is good luck. So I have a double dose of good luck. Maybe that means I'm going to see cheetahs this afternoon. Woo hoo!
Right now we're visiting a private game reserve to see even more cool wildlife. And what caught us for a total surprise is that we saw so many giraffes. Apparently this is the most giraffes have ever been spotted out here.
So we saw them walk right in front of our vehicle and we even saw a couple of them fighting. They were swinging their heads at each other. It was completely bonkers.
Yeah, so overall it has been an amazing day. We saw more animals than we ever expected. And what a beautiful way to wrap up the day. Now we're just going to watch the sunset, drink some wine and enjoy some cheese. And do it all over again tomorrow.
This is part of our Travel in South Africa series. We're making a series of videos showcasing South African culture, South African arts, South African foods, South African religion, South African cuisine and South African people.
All photos and video taken by Samuel Jeffery (Nomadic Samuel) and Audrey Bergner (That Backpacker).
