Kruger National Park Travel Guide

 13 Reviews  One of the good reasons to have a guided tour sometimes is that they (the guides) can also communicate with each other live while on the game drive and tell each other where the exotic animals are. That is how we found this beautiful Cheetah. 

 31 Reviews  The Vervet Monkeys are rather common and you might see them in many places, on the road, on the trees and also at the camps, they are much smaller then the baboons and seems very friendly and sweet, but remember, those are wild animal, not pets, give them the respect and distance 

 19 Reviews  Although you can see plenty of game in Kruger during the day, a night safari gives you an entirely different perspective of the park. You can see some animals that are nocturnal, such as leopards and hyenas. Also, you get a sense for the sounds of the bush, since there are fewer vehicles out making... 

 54 Reviews  There is a colony of fruit bats that live underneath the thatched roofs of the outdoor dining pavilions at Skukuza Camp in Kruger. They hang upside down from the rafters and sleep during the day. The fruit bats were one of the more interesting animal species that we saw at Kruger, partly because it... 

 27 Reviews  In addition to its large game animals, Kruger is also the home to a lot of interesting and photogenic bird species. These include eagles, spoonbills, storks, rollers, owls, cormorants, haws, and plovers. The biggest challenge is photographing them, since they are moving through the air when you spot... 

 7 Reviews  I’ve been planning and waiting for the walking safari since I was booking the flights and, yes, it was just fantastic. You wake up before sunrise, have a quick warm drink and off to the savannah. Walking there in the nature, trying to be silent, listen to the sound on the birds and the nature was...

 8 Reviews  I fly about once a fortnight on business :( and as often as I can for pleasure :), but let me confess up front that although its an integral part of my life, I just don't like flying. And I really don't enjoy airports one little bit. Which is why I find it somewhat strange to be writing about my... 

 9 Reviews  Transport within the park has to be done either with Safari Company or with your own vehicle. In the environment of Kruger Park unlike the Etosha Park in Namibia, where the grass is lower and there are hardly any trees, the safari vehicles are more appropriate because they are elevated and the view... 

 9 Reviews  There can be lots of animals on the road, and actually you will see lots of them, even if some are not really endangering you, they might damage your car if you crash into any. Here is an example of Impala just jumping in front of our car, luckily we drove slow not to hurt anyone. 

 11 Reviews  Do not let children tease elephants, these animals are wild animals, and plz keep distance with car. Do not follow elephants, always allow elephants right of way, drive off slowly if they get too near, do not cut off their path especially when there are more than one car, do not stop between a... 

 13 Reviews  (work in progress) Vistors are not allowed to drive off road is allowed in any of South Africa's national or provincial game reserves. In private reserves, game rangers may take vehicles off road - for example, to view animal kills - but this is the exception rather than the rule and is only allowed... 

 4 Reviews  What I didn't realize before going to Kruger is that hippos kill more tourists than any other animal in Africa. People don't realize that they are dangerous and go right up to them to get a better look. Hippos will feel quite threatened if approached by humans, especially if you get between them and... 

 4 Reviews  About 25 kms south of Satara on the H1-3 is the southern most baobab in the park. It is quite large and worth seeing especially if you do not plan on heading to the northern part of the park where baobabs are more prevalent. The side road to the baobab is interesting as it crosses the N’waswitsontso... 

 9 Reviews  People who travel over borders via KNP will require to overnight in the park, not just drive through, proof of overnight stay will be required at borders.Please check with KNP or on their website for more details.
