Full Day Safari in the Kruger National Park from Hazyview
Description
Experience a full day of incredible wildlife viewing on this guided safari through the world-famous Kruger National Park. With an entire day to explore, you’ll enjoy a wide variety of sightings—from elephants and big cats to birdlife, antelope and the smaller wonders of the bush. Travel in a comfortable open safari vehicle with one of our highly skilled guides who will share fascinating insights about animal behaviour, tracking, habitats and the rhythms of the park. Longer time in the bush means more opportunities to follow sightings, visit different ecosystems and enjoy unhurried photographic moments. You’ll stop at rest camps for meals and breaks (own account) and your guide will happily tailor the experience to your interests—whether you love birds, predators, landscapes or simply the magic of being in nature. A full day in Kruger offers a deeper, richer safari experience and the chance to truly immerse yourself in Africa’s wildlife.

Our guide, Dirik, was fantastic. He knew exactly where to go to look for the animals we were searching for (painted dogs). He was friendly, and his years of experience were evident from his knowledge of flora and fauna. He was a joy to be around and I cant recommend him and this outfitter enough.
We had a wonderful day in Kruger. The tour guide, (who's name I'm sorry, I've forgotten) was incredible, his knowledge and love of the park was evident. We were fortunate enough to see four of the big five as well as many other animals, birds etc. I am indebted to Tracy for her help before we even left the UK and whilst we were in Hazyview. I honestly can't recommend them highly enough.
When on tour in South Africa with a group, our tour company used African Safari Adventures for our full-day open vehicle safari in Kruger National Park. We were able to enter Kruger and begin our discoveries right as the park opened in the morning. Our guide, Heyn, did a remarkable job pointing out and expertly explaining the wildlife and vegetation. Due to our tour group circumstances, there were eight of us in our vehicle. However, Heyn positioned (and repositioned) the vehicle and allowed time so that all of the avid photographers on board could take pictures. He explained which animals we would be likely to see often in order to be able to spend more time at less frequent sightings: a family of African wild dogs, a pride of lions (lion, lionesses, four cubs) relaxing after having made a kill / dragged the victim into the taller grass, and more. We made two stops at the Skukuza Rest Camp during our one-day outing: one during the morning and the second at about lunch time. Heyn mentioned the small museum/library and the ranger dog memorial at the rest camp for those of us who had spare time during those stops, and we found them very interesting. We were grateful for his in-depth knowledge of the areas where we traveled and for his expertise as concerns the fauna and flora.
Hello there, many thanks for your lovely review. I'm so pleased you enjoyed your day with Heyn. Sounds like you had some amazing sightings. Hope to welcome you back to the Kruger in the not too distant future. Bye for now.
We got to see the big 5. Our guide was very knowledgeable. We think our guides name was Hayn, and would just like to say a big thank you. For making our dreams come true.
They picked us up on time, only 4 people on the jeep and a really nice guide. I reccommend taking a one day tour first, and then spend another day or two going on self drive (which is also very fun)
I'm so pleased you had a good safari? What animals did you see?
Dirk was our guide for a day at Kruger National Park. It was a brilliant day and Dirk was the perfect guide. Knowledgeable patient funny and determined to find the lions, who refused to come out, through no lack of effort on Dirk's part..! If anyone knows more about this place than Dirk I'd be amazed.
Hi Keith, I'm so sorry I'm only responding now, I'm not getting notifications and I keep forgetting to log on to check for reviews. I'm so pleased to hear that you had a great day with Dirk. He is an absolute gem, we are very lucky. Hope to see you again in the not too distant future
A magical discovery of this beautiful park where wild animals live in the wild. The ranger leads us through the tracks as close as possible to the animals! Pausa coffee and lunch! The return was by road, a little disappointed because the opportunity to see the animals is less! You should also be able to return to the starting point via the slopes!
Hi Caroline, I translated your review on Google Translate so it may not be quite what you meant. This is what it says":- A magical discovery of this beautiful park where wild animals live in freedom. The rangers lead us through the tracks closer to the animals! Coffee break and lunch! The return was by the road, a little disappointed because the possibility of seeing animals is less! It should also be possible to return to the starting point by the tracks! I'm not sure what you mean by "return by the road" and "the tracks". Do you maybe mean the dirt roads when you say tracks and then returning on the tar road? If that is correct, the chances of seeing game on the tar roads are as good as seeing them on the dirt roads and it could have been that the guide was given information by another guide of a sighting on the road he took. If you could let me know when you travelled with us, I can talk to the guide to get a better report Kindest regards, Tracey
The guide was spectacular: he knew exactly where the animals were, the behavior and curiosities of each. We were able to visualize the 5 "big five" among various other animals and beautiful birds. Super recommend the Enterprise and the tour!
Sorry for the Google translation. Desculpe pela tradução do Google The guide was spectacular: he knew exactly where the animals were, the behavior and the curiosities of each one. We have been able to visualize the 5 big fives among other animals and beautiful birds. Super recommend the company and the tour! Thank you so much for your lovely review. I'm so pleased that you had a such a wonderful safari with us and look forward to welcoming you again in the not too distant future Muito obrigado pela sua linda resenha. Estou tão contente que você teve um safári tão maravilhoso com a gente e estamos ansiosos para recebê-lo novamente em um futuro não muito distante Kindest regards, Tracey
This is our 3rd Trip to Kruger and each time used African Safari Adventures for our tours(we have done 6 in all). Tracy makes it a trouble free booking. Adrianne,our guide is always on time to pick up from our door/Hotel. Such an amazing guy. So knowledgeable and makes the tour so exciting. Nothing is too much trouble. I’ve asked him to stop on more than one occasion thinking I have seen something and it turns out to be a rock or a tree trunk etc. All part of the adventure! We have never used any other tour company and never would. These are a first class company and have no hesitation to recommend to anyone and everyone. This particular trip we took our daughter and 8 year old granddaughter. I was a little worried that the tour would be too much for our granddaughter, after all, we are up at dawn and there are no guarantees you will see all the animals you want to. No worries, she was in awe with the adventure, loved every moment and certainly won’t forget it in a hurry. Thank you so much Adrianne for making this a fantastic holiday adventure and thank you Tracy for organising this once again for us. Best wishes to you all.
Game Drives from Mala Mala where really riveting.. Best trip we ever took. We saw all of the big five. We were once surrounded by approx 30 Elephants who proceeded to take a mud bath. Our ranger said that not everyone got to witness that. We saw a pack of hyena devour what was left of a Water Buffalo. Saw two Cheetas chase their pray in a wild ride. came face to face with a rhino in the middle of the road during a night drive etc.
