Kruger National Park

Drive to Kruger Park in your custom-built open-sided game viewer. You will view game without intervening glass windows and also listen to and smell the denizens of the bush. The Orpen-Satara-Nwanedzi region has open plains that attract large herds of zebra, giraffe and antelope, which in turn, attract many predators. This zone has the highest concentration of lions in Africa.
