Kruger National Park

Kruger National Park is one of those amazing places that you just have to see when visiting South Africa.

If you're looking for a unique Kruger National Park experience go on safari in open vehicles – in fact for the ultimate thrill go on nighttime safaris. You would be hard pressed to find a better place for big cat (such as lion and leopard) and big game (such as elephant, rhino, buffalo) photo opportunities than the Kruger National Park and its surrounding areas.

If you're on a tight budget and are travelling with your whole family you may enjoy renting a car and driving yourself through the Kruger National Park. The cool thing about this is you can explore and discover new bushveld secrets at your own pace. The roads within the Kruger National Park well maintained and most are tarmac. You will find service stations and rest camps throughout the park giving you the difficult choice of "in which beautiful rest camp do we want to spend the tonight?".

So what are you waiting for? Grab a map (don't worry you won't get lost) and enjoy the breathtaking african bushveld in all its glory within the Kruger National Park. Following the links to the right should get you to a place that will accept bookings and provide more in depth information about the Kruger National Park.
