Tour Options
Itinerary
Kruger National Park is South Africa’s largest game reserve, and one of the most respected in the world. Our highly experienced field guides are passionate about the bush, and they will share their knowledge of the 147 species of mammals, more than 500 species of birds and 336 species of trees which make this 2 million hectare space their home, with our guests. The recorded presence of man – including bushman rock paintings and archaeological sites, are conserved along with the Park’s natural assets. If time permits, at least one of these will be included in the trip. From an Open Safari Vehicle guests can smell the dust and the sun-warmed grass, listen to the cicadas and the cry of the Fish Eagles, and enjoy the heat of an African day. However we are also able to offer a safari in a closed, air-conditioned vehicle. This is a pleasant and comfortable option especially in very hot weather, for older guests, and for families travelling with young children.

We just spent 6 days, including 4 in Kruger with Edward. We recommend him 100%, he is incredibly kind, funny, and attentive to everything. He has in-depth knowledge on many subjects: animals, trees, birds, the best spots for each species, and he always has plenty of exciting anecdotes to share! We learned so many things, it was really great. We were able to see the Big 5 and even the Big 7, and it was clear that he was as happy as we were to experience these exceptional moments. Thanks to his experience, sharp eye, and passion for nature, this safari was unforgettable, both for his knowledge and his good humor. If you are looking for a passionate, professional, and exceptionally human guide, do not hesitate! Thank you again for this incredible experience and all these memories that we will cherish for a long time! 😊🥰
Thank you so much for this incredible feedback. We’re thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your six days with Edward, and he’ll be over the moon to know his passion, knowledge, and good humour made your safari unforgettable. Experiencing the Big Five—and even the Big Seven—together is truly special. We appreciate your heartfelt recommendation and are so glad these memories will stay with you for a long time.
We had the most incredible experience on our Kruger Safari, and so much of that was thanks to our guide, Edward. From the moment we arrived, his passion for wildlife, deep knowledge of the park, and warm personality made every game drive unforgettable. Edward had an amazing ability to spot animals we would have completely missed on our own, and he always took the time to explain interesting facts about the wildlife, birds, and ecosystem. We were lucky enough to see 4 of the Big Five, along with so many other incredible animals, and every sighting felt even more special because of his enthusiasm and expertise. Thank you Caitlin & Ben (Australia)

Edward offered a great tour. Especially since the animals had been hiding due to the heat. He talked a lot about the park and the plants. It was great!
Thank you so much for this lovely feedback. We’re delighted to hear that, even on a hot day when the animals were keeping to the shade, Edward still managed to give you a memorable and informative experience. His passion for the park, its wildlife, and its plant life truly shines through, and it means a lot to know that it made your tour great. We appreciate you choosing to explore the park with us and hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon.
The whole experience was fantastic. Our vehicles were brilliant, all seats are elevated so everyone could see easily. Our guide Edward went above & beyond to find us so many animals, such as lions, elephants, zebras, giraffes, wilder beasts, crocodiles, impalas, hippos, kudus, hyenas, wild dogs, plus his incredible knowledge on bird life & all the animals made our time in the park an unbelievable experience.
