Yoga and Safari Retreat

Fly into Hoedspruit Airport and an airport transfer to Kelora will be waiting for you upon arrival. If you need help figuring out flights, please contact me directly!

If you are traveling from the USA or Europe, you WILL NOT need a visa. If you’re traveling with another nationality, please make sure to do the appropriate research.

While the airport transfer will be organized specific to your arrival time, I’d recommend your flight arrive and depart around midday. The airport is very small and there are very limited daily flights into Hoedspruit Airport.

The deposit is non-refundable. Cancelation by June 5th will result in a full refund (not including the initial deposit). Cancelation thereafter will not be refunded. In the VERY UNLIKELY event that Chantal has to cancel, you will receive a FULL REFUND including the initial deposit.

Please make sure to have enough cash on you to tip your tour guides and Kelora Bush Camp staff. Most stores accept VISA and MASTERCACARD. Please note that American Express is seldom accepted in South Africa. If you need an idea of an exact ZAR amount, please contact me directly for a recommendation.

This is a very low risk Malaria zone and it is unlikely that you will be infected. However, please consult your doctor before traveling.
