After travelling north to Vilanculos we enjoy a relaxing evening before we depart on our excursion to the Islands.

Day 14:

Early in the morning we take a walk with a local expert in the wildlife concession area just outside of the Kruger National Park, there is nothing like seeing the animals up close!
