The lodge, guide, food and wildlife were all wonderful. Dont hesitate to book with Kruger Park Travel. Their response to any inquiries was pretty fast as well. Thanks again!

We personally liked sabi sands more. It feels wilder and less crowded with people. No concrete roads and nobody else driving around, only authorized safari drivers

An amazing experience, to be able to see wild animals in their own environment.

We stayed at the Imbali lodge in Kruger, very impressed with the accommodation & food.
The trip was several hours to get to the lodge which seems long , but i guess if you want to see the animals deep in the bush, you have to travel.
We were very fortunate as on our way to the lodge on the first evening, our guides manged to find a pride of lions in the darkness, very exciting!
Our guide was very good, she was informative, very enthusiastic & very patient which was needed when trying to find the elusive Rhino & get reasonably close to them.
Our weather was good.
We were very fortunate to see the big 5 plus a cheetah, Giraffe & many other animals... inc Wild dogs, Wart hogs, Buffalo.
It is certainly worth getting up early for the morning drive as its the best time of the day!
Would recommend a Safari & would certainly do another as I'm keen photographer & was able to capture some truly amazing animals in their natural habitat.

Kruger National Park has beautiful scenery with mountains, plains, and rivers. There is a very wide variety of wildlife to view. The staff at Kruger National Park seems to be vigilant regarding the safety of the animals within the park.

12 days photographic trip to Kruger National Park
Overall rating
5/5

The wildlife in the park at times was a bit sparse, which could have been because of the drought when i was there but we always found something around the next corner, but mostly plenty of animals around.The first few hours every morning was the most productive.The accommodation was clean and tidy. At Oilfants it worth getting a bungalow with a view of the river. You could get what you needed from the shops (milk, bread, meat, sweats). The restaurants where fine, not a lot of options but the steaks where the most consistent over 4 camps and was cooked perfectly.I would highly recommend a self drive trip to the Kruger Park, and staying 2 to 3 nights in each camp so you can get the most from each area.The weather was around 26 to 36c most days with one night off rain. To get the best from a trip to Kruger you need to put the time in and keep looking and at times just stop and just wait.

The Kruger National Park safari was a very intense adventure full of exciting moments.

I was lucky because I could observe and photograph many animals and birds. I stayed very well at a lodge at Marlot Park, near the Crocodile Bridge Rest Camp. The safari guide was very competent and gave me all the information about the animals encountered. The park is very vast and the camps are very well organized.

Took me two days to find the big 5 and saw a abundance of other wildlife including beautiful birds at the different hides throughout the park. Some places have amazing scenery like the Most Southern Baobab and the Fever Tree forest up in the north of the park. Weather was sunny with high temperature, had a few days of rain aswell but mostly clear sky’s. Chalets were clean and cleaned while driving for the day. Food is great in Skukuza and Lower Sabie but other camps like Satara was not the standard you would expect but still decent enough. We drove with our own vehicle and it was fruitful. Most leopards were spotted in the south of the park. I would recommend going to Kruger if your native to South Africa or from abroad, I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed.

Really amazing experience
Overall rating
5/5

This has been my 2nd safari experience. Everything went in a woderfull way. We (couple) organized all by ourselves, booking via the official website of the park. We spent three whole days driving our car in the southern part of the Kruger. We had the chance to see a lot of animals (4 out of the 5 big, we missed the lion). We spent our nights in the camps (Lower Sabie and Skukuza): both are really nice, well organized and clean, even if we preferred the LS. We had two organized safari, one in the afternoon/night (good experience) and one by walk early in the morning (not really a interesting experience). We also had dinner into the camps (good). We were in South Africa two weeks before Christmas so we didn't find a lot of tourist and we had the opportunity to maximize our Kruger's experience.

So much wildlife to see and I was impressed that all the campsites were free and open to anybody who had payed entrance to the park. The park was naturally beautiful and felt unimposing on the animals.

Wild and "free" like animals should be

5/5

The Kruger National park s facilities was as clean as it could be, staff in shops and restaurants friendly and helpful, accommodation was clean and safe. The drive and animals as safe as they could be. Truly sad about the Rhinos being pouched and killed and that would be my only concern, they obviously need more game rangers to protect the animals
