KOKSTAD TO KRUGER PARK AND BACK

[Ramkat]

I would appreciate some help and advice on a planned trip from Kokstad to the Kruger National Park and back. Since I am rather useless at this sort of thing, any recommendations and tips would be appreciated.

Unfortunately we will be in my wife's car, the plan was to do this trip in my new 4x4, but a property has come up that I want to buy, so no money for toys for a while. We've got about 2 weeks to play with, and enough money to be comfortable, but nothing over the top. The emphasis must be on sightseeing and relaxing.

So far I've got the following planned:

Day 1:
Drive from Kokstad to Bethal in Mpumalanga to sleep over at my boet's place.

Day 2:
Drive from Bethal to Pretoria for my other boet's wedding. Sleep over in Pretoria.

Day 3:
Drive from Pretoria to Bethal to sleep over at my boet's place again.

Day 4:
Drive from Bethal to Berg en Dal rest camp in Kruger Park.

Day 5:
Spend the day in the park while driving to Lower Sabie rest camp.

Day 6:
Drive from Lower Sabie camp, spend some time in the park. Exit at the Paul Kruger gate and head towards Hazyview.

This is it so far, please help me with scenic routes and things to see and do on the way home.

Thanks
