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