Safe and very organized park. In one morning we were able to observe 4 of the Big Five, as well as many giraffes, antelopes, zebras. We stayed in the Berg-en-dal camp, where on arrival we were already presented with two huge elephants right in front of our bedroom window, on the other side of the protection fence. Unforgettable!
Safari country day visit, braai or stay over, one with nature. Guided tour is best with Game rangers.Hot and humid.
Many animals.
I was able to go to here last year and the experience was amazing! We were able to be so close to wildlife and see nearly all of the main animals of the area! The memories with certainly stay with me forever
Too many people animal are not respected trees near the road look awful as if they burned them
Too good, not satisfied yet.. will visit again for sure.
We saw a group of 100 elephants in the veld! Some on the road ahead of us and others along the way!
Lots of excitement, lots of adrenaline and all the big five to shoot
The place is small haven people tend to connect with wildlife
Wonderful and exciting game viewing. Excellent facilities.
Nice just hope it will still be there in the next 100 years
Fantastic area. Lots of wild life around. Time to relax and get away from the stresses of the city
Amazing experience, great services and roads in the park
The park itself is great. It was a bit tricky to actually buy tickets online. There were so many different websites that said they sell tickets.
The park was full as well (on the first day I tried to go) however, I was still able to book the tickets. I drove almost an hour to my desired gate only to be told to go. I just wish there was a live update on the website that could tell me the park is at capacity.
Kruger National Park is a national park in South Africa. The park covers an area of 19, 485 square meters (7,523 m 2), located in the provinces of Limpopo and Empomalanga in the northeastern part of South Africa. The park is 360 kilometers (220 miles) from the north to the south, and 65 kilometers (40 miles) from the east to the west. The park's area was first protected by the Government of South Africa in 1898, and was registered as the first South African National Park in 1926.
a most amazing self-drive game park that should be on everyone's bucket list
Good facility's. Good amount of wild life to be seen . Be sure to consult your daily maps to see updated sightings of wild life.
An escape into the African Bushveld that feeds the soul and recharges the spirit. We stayed predominantly at Bushveld Camps, which are quiet (from a human noise perspective) and steeped in fauna and flora.
Clean and tranquil, its a shame people drive like they are not use to anything in the world
World reknown wild animal back country, not a zoo, you have to search for the animal in 350km natural habitat
Amazing experience, bring binoculars with you and anti mosquito spray
An excellent place to see wild animals. Explore nature. Services are great.
Its really amazing! So peaceful and very calmly here. Animals al around us... Love it!!!.
If there are animals in the wild, the Kruger National Park is one of the largest and most important national parks in the world. The sighting of the most dangerous and difficult to hunt animals is promoted, which are known as the Big 5 : the Lion, Leopard, Buffalo, Rhinoceros and the Elephant, but it also has a diversity and a large number of other animals. such as giraffes, zebras, hyenas, impalas, hippopotamuses among its more than 137 mammals and 500 varieties of birds. All these iconic African safari species live in protected areas, some with controlled and controlled hunting seasons in private reserves known as Game Reserve, including Klaserie, Timbavati, Manyeleti, which together with the National Park make up the magnificent Kruger National Park.
The best time to participate in Game Drivers, as they are called the sighting safari in Kruger Park is during the dry months of April to September, when the vegetation is less thick and within this period, August to September is a recommended time since temperatures are higher than mid-winter and animals are concentrated around water sources, allowing for excellent game viewing.
A wonderful, exciting, scary place. Superb staff. Very tasty food. The worst thing was the bus journey there, very rude due to the bad road and the bus was actually a truck shazi with untouched springs.
It is the best time of the year to go. I got lucky to spot all big five beside rhino, make sure you go in early enough to spot hyena and wild dogs from Phabeni gate. That was where I spotted them, you can also spot them hunting in early morning if you are extremely lucky. All in all. It was a good trip
Great place but high entry fees.... Self drive through the park is highly recommended
MAGNIFICENT !!! For us, no need for a guide, get up very early (3h30) to be in the park and admire all the animals! impressive, beautiful ... the most beautiful park I have ever made. Besides, we do not feel at all that it is a park. We are so immersed in nature. That's great !
Kruger park is probably the all round best wildlife destination on earth.
I enjoyed a game drive. We had the chance to see lions and many other animals. It was truly a great experience!
A must go for every person.
Best time is early morning or late afternoon
Wonderful sightings on a good day.
Was super lucky to see 3 of the 5 Big 5 animals, prices at the restuarants and shops are not too bad, but souveniers are extremely expensive
Beautiful country indeed! The park is huge. We spent 2 night at Skukuza camp site which is very very nice! Monis house can accommodate 3 families with kitchen and living area. It has braai area outside the house with river view. If you're lucky enough, you will see animal activities by the river!
Really enjoy our stay here and we recommend this camp!
Vin hereby to thank with everything that happens in this half day of the life of the living beings and of the whole humanity for my thanks.
Couldn't spot the BIG 5 bad luck. But did have an awesome sunset view and also spotted some animals
Beautiful place, beautiful animals. Definitely a bucket list trip!
As usual. The best place to see, enjoy, take photo's, learn, explore the unique and wonderful fona and flora.
It is extremely dry.
Beautiful park for those who want an authentic safari experience without missing out on too much comfort. The fields within the park contain everything you need, from accommodation to restaurants to shops. The safaris organized by the park staff are experiences to try.
The best thing is still to drive independently through the streets of the immense national park in search of encounters with the animals that live there. The lucky ones will be able to spot all the big five in just one day!
Recommended at least once in a lifetime!
Wow. This park is huge and has so much vibrant wildlife. It gets its incredible reputation for a very good reason. If you are visiting South Africa you have to come here and see the raw, protected nature.
Park is awesome. Goverment accomodations not so much.
I love visiting the Kruger National Park every time we visit we see the Big 5. Since they only allow 200 vehicles in the park per gate the traffic has been less of a headache at sightings. The gate staff is always friendly and very professional.
Crowded and commercialised. Only places you can get out of your car there is so many people you think you are in town. And it's not even holiday. I will go to one of the smaller ones again next time...
Best Place on Earth. Wild animals everywhere. All 4 seasons and the big five in their natural environment on 60 km X 350 km = 21, 000 square kilometres.
The stuff is friendly driving around seeing nature
Friendly staff at all the restaurants. Was lovely to see al the animals
Depending on where you go, there is always something to see. Lots of Elephants
Perfect experience when you got a knowledgeable guide, a very interesting park to visit. There's shop's and restaurants in the park.
Fantastic, animals are on the road and have no fear
Always refreshing being out here!! The friendly stuff at the gates are soo welcoming.
Iets the place to be if you want to get away from the city
An unforgettable experience., seeing the Big Five all in one day with Kurt Safaris
Saw the big 5 in one day. Was a bit of a rush as we took it a bit too slow in the beginning so we barely made it out of the gate, but it was Winter so the gate opens a bit later and closes a bit earlier. But we still enjoyed every moment of it. Just the gamedrive vehicles from other companies can be a bit selfish and arrogant.
It is always great to be in touch with nature and such a rewarding experience
This was a very interesting experience - I didn t know what to expect, but we had a blast seeing the animals around. You can go for 20-30 minutes without seeing anything, but when you do see something it s very exciting. Hope I will be back in the future.
Lovely as always, but can see how easily a poacher can gets arms into the park, cars not searched that well.
My first leopards, 3 sitings, visiting the Kruger many times. This made our trip more special than ever.
Did see most of the Big 5 but in small numbers as tall trees and bushes do not give better views. Head to Lower Sabie road for better views and animals. Watch out for tortoises, African snails and millipedes crossing the road. Good pit stops near Sukuza and lower Sabie gates.
The place is so nice and beautiful. Staff is also friendly I wont mind coming back
I can never get enough of this place. I love the quiet here. And the uncertainty regarding what one might get to see at every drive that one takes through the park. Amazing place for even an amateur photographer like myself. Lots of fun for one who just wants to be Dary away from their work, and city lifestyle.
