Kruger Safari
The journey, one day at a time
Into Kruger National Park
Arrive in Kruger National Park, met and transferred to your accommodation. Most of Africa's great wildlife sits behind a high price. Kruger is the exception — a world-class Big-Five park you can drive yourself, on almost any budget, staying in a rest camp and finding your own lions. That openness is exactly what makes it special, and what the exclusive reserves next door are not.
Self-drive Big Five
Game drives across Kruger's roads and waterholes for the Big Five, by self-drive or with a ranger. More of the park — working the rivers and waterholes for lion, leopard, elephant and more.

Departure
A final morning in onward — a last outing or a slow start as time allows — before the transfer onward and the journey home.
The season changes what you see.
Dry-season bush
Prime bushveld safari — sparse cover, game at water, cool and clear. The Cape is wetter, but the whales are in.
Green summer & the Cape
Lush bush with newborns and migrants; peak, dry, sunny season for Cape Town, the coast and the winelands.
