Really awesome. There's plenty of opportunities to get up close with the animals even though you're in a vehicle almost all the time.

There's two way you can experience the park. You can either self-drive or you can go on a game drive. We did both, and I liked both experiences.

For the self-drive, you pretty much just drive around the park and look for animals out your window. The roads are well-paved, and we had absolutely no issues with animals getting too close to the vehicle. We rented a 4x4, but you could easily do the park in a small car.

The game drives are similar to the self-drive with a few of differences. You're in an open vehicle driven by a ranger, and the rangers can do a few things that you're not allowed to do on your own. For example, they can go a little off the trail, and they can be outside the gates before and after the gates close. In addition, the rangers talk to each other, so they have a better idea where to spot uncommon game.

You can also do game drives with private companies, but I'm not sure what the advantage of a private drive would be since they have the same restrictions as the rangers.

As a kid my parents took us to the Kruger a lot and I'm so happy to be able to do the same for my family. The Kruger is THE South African Big-5 safari experience, mixing self-drive, self-catering holidays with luxury, private safari experiences. The park is very popular and is always always quite busy, especially in the Southern parts around Skukuza and Lower Sabie, which are two big tourist spots owing to the good game viewing opportunities. The park is so diverse and changes from North to South, each are having its own unique characters and biodiversity. From the Mopani forests in the North, to the open Savannah in the Middle and the dense scrub of the South, there's always something to see. Some tips - BOOK - and book early! Whether you're going in as a day visitor you'll want to pre-book your entry to skip the long queues that can form at the gates. You're also not permitted to bring alcohol int the park if you're a day visitor. And if you want to stay in the park, be sure to book well in advance, as much as 6 months in advance. Obey the rules, don't ruin the experience for others and make wonderful memories.

It was great, amazing, there is just too much adventure, we saw lions feasting, we also saw a lot of different animals, closer to the road and far, u can enjoy if u not in a hurry, there is a lot of place to go to, you just hv to drive with ur eyes open, lower ur speed, watch the smaller animals crossing on the road, keep a good distance from the Elephant , lower your music. Good place to go with family and friends

It's awesome.I recommend to mix both guided and self guided safaris. If you want to stay in the rest camps inside the park for the night make sure you book well in advance, even in low season.

Absolutely amazing even during the drout it it is possible to see so many animals we saw all big 5 during our 4 day visit and even saw cheetahs hunting zebras. Just keep in mind you need to be obsessive with all the rules they have in the park, getting stopped by rangers and local police can ruin your day even when getting your fingers out the window or the speed limit when going down hill. The camps are the best options to stay our favorites are Skukuza, Satara & Olifants.

Kruger park, what more can you say. We used a tour guide this time which was a bit more rushed but we saw plenty of game and they all communicate so everyone gets to hear what the others are seeing and if your close enough the guide zips over

This is a beautiful island of nature in the south Africa. It is huge and can not be viewed on a single week. The size of the Kruger fits the size Israel. Southern part was more bushy than expected. There are a lot of animals, but you have start the drive before the sunrise.

A fantastic place to get away and experience the best of African wildlife. The South Eastern region of the park (which I usually visit) has plenty of game of all kinds, often enabling the sighting of the big 5. Elephants are particularly plentiful in the park. Overall a wondeful place to get away and enjoy nature.
