We rise early and transfer into our open safari vehicles for two full days in Kruger National Park. South Africas flagship game park the Kruger has over 2 million hectares of unrivalled diversity of life forms fused with historical and archaeological sights. With cameras and binoculars at the ready, we explore the untamed wilderness on game drives, and hopefully we will see some of the Big 5 - elephant, rhino, leopard, lion and buffalo. The Kruger is home to over 505 species of birds, 148 species of mammals and many reptiles. The impressive atmosphere of the park enables you to understand why it holds such a unique place amongst the worlds great game reserves. We spend two nights here and campsite within the park, staying in pre erected tents with beds, bedding and small light. A typical day would be going on safari in the early morning, returning to our camp for lunch and going out again. Whilst in the park, if available, you have the option of going on a guided night drive to view nocturnal animals in their natural habitat.
