I landed into Johannesburg Airport to be met on arrival by my driver, Jonny. It takes just 2.5 hour to reach Ant’s Hill and I have already seen impala, ostrich and wildebeest on route.
Lunch is served on the verandah with the most incredible view! I already feel at home as the friendly staff introduce themselves.
After lunch we head out on the horses in search of game. I am given Shumba to ride – a beautiful bay gelding.
My room tonight is World’s View – and what a view it has! I’ve never looked forward to having a bath so much. I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings…
