Kruger National Park

Kruger National Park is South Africa’s premier safari destination and one of Africa’s largest game reserves. The park’s 20,000 km² of mixed bushveld supports exceptional populations of all the Big Five and over 500 bird species. The private concessions on Kruger’s western boundary — the Sabi Sands, Manyeleti, and Timbavati — offer experiences unavailable in the national park: off-road game drives, walking safaris, and night drives. The Sabi Sands in particular is famous for leopard habituated to vehicles — sightings here are among the most reliable and intimate in Africa. Excellent air connections make Kruger a natural extension of an East African itinerary.
