Kruger National Park in northeastern South Africa is one of Africa's premier national parks, largest wildlife reserves and one of the best places to see wildlife, including the "Big Five". On your safari, you'll likely encounter cheetahs, leopards, lions, hyenas, zebra, and wild dogs, as well as kudu, eland, sable antelope, and impala. Game drives, hikes, and perhaps even a hot air balloon ride will acquaint you with this expansive national park that encompasses mountain, bush plain, and tropical forest habitats that local and public groups are working hard to protect and preserve. Your safari will likely take you to the booming cities of Johannesburg, Cape Town, and the mighty Victoria Falls. 

In the end, a journey to Kruger National Park is more than a safari—it’s an unforgettable adventure. From spotting the Big Five on the best Kruger National Park safaris to unwinding at Kruger National Park luxury lodges like Lion Sands or Londolozi, every moment feels special. A Kruger park safari holiday offers incredible wildlife, striking landscapes, and year-round opportunities, making Kruger one of South Africa’s greatest treasures.

We had a fabulous time. Especially seeing the animals and the great driver/guides that we had at Tamarak and Rhino Walking Safari Lodges. We were very pampered the whole time. The staff were extremely friendly and seemed genuinely to enjoy their jobs. This seemed to mean me that they are treated fairly by the employers. We can not say enough about our trip. Don't count on losing weight, they feed you constantly!
