Kruger National Park Tour




During one of the few days off we have, my husband – a qualified field guide – took the chance today and guided me on a tour to the Kruger National Park. A couple of weeks into the rainy season I was amazed how much the vegetation in the Park has grown and how green it was. It was even hard to spot an elephant.
As my husband always seems to find Leopard, I was banking on him finding one. He did not disappoint me!!
We even drove along the Crocodile River where we could see Leopard Creek Country Club where the Alfred Dunhill Championship is ending today.

FIFA World Cup 2010: Booking essential!


After the final draw the fans are busy organising their tours through South Africa.
One of the most important things will be to watch the live matches but many of the visitors want to get the most out of their stay in South Africa.
One of the “must do`s” is a visit to the world-renowned Kruger National Park. It offers a wildlife experience that ranks with the best in Africa!
It is getting more and more complicated to organise tours and day trips to the Kruger National Park or even other activities like Elephant Interaction or Bush Walks because big groups and FIFA booked well in advance.
Dreamfields Guesthouse works with some local tour operators and is still able to organize tours and other activities.
To avoid disappointment: Please contact us now to secure your World Cup accommodation and wildlife experience.

FIFA World Cup 2010: Accommodation available


In June 2009 Dreamfields Guesthouse signed a contract with Match (FIFA) to be an official supplier for accommodation during the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Despite many critics – especially from the fans point of view - the owners had their reasons and decided to go that way.

Being a small guesthouse the 2010 World Cup is very important. The region close to the Kruger National Park and the Mbombela Stadium will be visited by many, many fans and officials.
Unfortunately things did not go the way they were supposed to be and Dreamfields Guesthouse terminated the contract with Match today.

That is good news for people looking for World Cup accommodation! Please check the availability and rates online.

Doing a self drive tour to Kruger National Park the Lake Panic Bird Hide is a must. Located on the S42 near Skukuza on the road to the Nursery you can reach this hide in less than an hours drive from Dreamfields Guesthouse.

Make sure you check under the floorboards when you enter the hide – often you will find a hippo sleeping under there.

FIFA World Cup 2010 – Mbombela Stadium


The Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruit, Mpumalanga, is one of the newly built stadiums, with a capacity of 46 000. It will host four first-round matches and it takes its name from the local municipality which incorporates the city of Nelspruit. Mbombela is siSwati (one of the 11 official languages in South Africa) and literally means 'many people together in a small space.'
Before the Stadium's construction, Nelspruit had no top football venue to host international matches. After the FIFA 2010 World Cup, the stadium is scheduled to be a multipurpose facility where diversified sporting activities will take place including rugby and cricket while it will also be equipped with conference facilities.
The Mbombela Stadium also enjoys a close proximity to various game parks, giving spectators the opportunity to see the wildlife during rest days.

People looking for World Cup accommodation find Dreamfields Guesthouse Hazyview, about 60 km away from the Mbombela Stadium and only 10 km from the Kruger National Park, the ideal base to combine the football experience with a visit to the Kruger National Park, the Blyde River Canyon and many other activities.

Kruger National Park: First Hand Experience of Poaching

Monday 24 August 09, Neil, owner of Dreamfields Guesthouse was witness to an unfortunate lion that had been caught in a poacher’s snare:

I arrived at a lion sighting to find that one of the 2 male lions had been caught around the neck in a snare and obviously struggled to brake free, tightening the wire noose so it cut into the lion’s neck. One of the Field guides at the sight had already notified the Kruger Park authorities and was on their way. (The injury was caused by illegal human activity and not nature so the authorities have an obligation to help). The vet arrived and darted the lion and then tracked it 150m into the bush where they found the sleeping beast. Unfortunately they were not able to carry the lion to the road and so asked for assistance from myself and the other guide present. We (7 of us) carried the sleeping giant to the road where the vet removed the snare and treated the wound. I was glad I could do my bit for conservation, and hopefully the lion will recover.
The lion was not the intended target but was unlucky to fall foul of a trap probably set for antelope or pig.

It is an unfortunate reality that poaching is still rife in the area, as fences are all too easily breached in order for poachers to operate.

Golf holiday: Golf in Hazyview

There is a good choice of golf courses in and around Hazyview - one of many things to do:

Sabi River Bungalows is a 18-hole golf course. Trees and water both play important roles as hazards on this course. At least 14 holes have water hazards. There are five dams and they all play a role.

Kruger Park Lodge: This 9-hole golf course is a product of the Gary Player Design Company. It offers a refreshing balance between challenge and playability.

Both are beautiful courses with indigenous trees and you often see crocodiles, hippos and lots of birds.

The Skukuza Golf Course is a magnificent 9-hole (18-tee) course situated in the world-renowned Kruger National Park on the outskirts of Skukuza restcamp. The rich wildlife sanctuary surrounding the golf course is home to the Big Five, a huge variety of birds and countless animals, which all conspire to provide the visitor with a harmonious close-to-nature golfing experience.

FIFA World Cup 2010: FIFA World Cup™ Accommodation

We think it is understandable that the 2010 World Cup is one of the main topics on our blogs. It is such a big event and it causes so many discussions.
One of the big issues is the increase of prices by some (many) accommodation establishment (see South Africa Tripadvisor Forum).

Dreamfields Guesthouse is going to increase the prices in November 2009 by 14% (double) and 15% (single) for 2010 which is the standard yearly increase.
There will be no further increases during the World Cup but we will offer reduced rates from January to May!
However, during that period we do not offer single rates and we have different payment and cancellation policies:
World Cup 2010 bookings that are placed on/before 04.12.2009: a non-refundable deposit of 50% is requested. The full payment will be due by the 05.12.2009.
World Cup 2010 bookings placed on/after 05.12.2009: a non-refundable deposit of 100% is applicable.
Cancellation: All deposit or payments are non-refundable

FIFA World Cup 2010: Vuvuzela will not be banned

After some complaints from commentators, players and international audiences it has now been decided by FIFA that it will be “a World Cup with African sound”. The vuvuzela, is a “plastic trumpet”, approximately one metre in length, commonly blown by fans at football matches in South Africa. The sound can be irritating: Like an elephant, a swarm of angry bees, a fog horn - whatever it is, it is loud! Despite of the sound the vuvuzela will not be banned at Dreamfields Guesthouse either.

Sports Fever

Over the last two months South Africa hosted three big sporting events. The 2009 Confederations Cup, the Indian Premier League (IPL) and the Lions Rugby Tour took the country by storm!
The IPL showed the country`s flexibility to host a tournament with only a couple of weeks notice, after the IPL was moved from Sri Lanka to South Africa due to security concerns.
The biggest event – especially for this region- was the Lions Tour. Tens of thousands of UK tourists came to see the test matches with South Africa`s Springboks. All Open Safari Vehicles available in the Kruger National Park had been sold out months before the tournament after thousands of Lions fans descended on the Sabie Valley region to enjoy the Park between the games in Pretoria and Johannesburg.
South Africa proved that it is possible!

Hazview is reputed to have the best climate in the world for bananas and you will see row upon row of these lush tropical plantations as well as a wide variety of other fruit and coffee farms.
