Kruger National Park Safari

You'll wake at sunrise to get ready for your morning safari. While you enjoy your morning rusk and hot drink, you take in the morning sounds and smells of the bush. You will be on one of the first vehicles leaving the camp as the gates open, with the privilege of exploring the gravel and tar roads before anyone else. Later, your guide will prepare a hot breakfast for you, and then we continue our drive until the sun is already high in the sky and it’s time for a lunch break. Siesta in your cool tent or dip in the pool back at camp.

In the afternoon, we will continue with our safari, spend some time on the roads surrounding the camp in search of more animal sightings, and later return to the rest camp for another night.
