Whales, sharks, Ostriches, Baboons, Dazzies, lions, tigers, crazy spikey trees. everthing in south Africa is just over sized (and slightly dangerous , in a good way)....

The only reason for not making higher ratings is that this Reserve is on a smaller scale than the ones I have seen on TV.

South Africa has everything in one country - and the variety of cultures make for a very pleasant vibe.

Great variety of wildlife, but we are extremely worried about the high rate of poaching at the moment which really spoils the whole experience

We spent a month in Kwazululand - camped at False Bay for a few days - found the birds and general wildlife (not so much the big game animals) something that I hadnt expected. Marvelous varieties and quantities of species or birds, lizards, plants (only dead snakes thanks!)

The Personal Touch, friendliness of the Guide and general atmosphere, this was part of a rather 'touristy' package deal, so just the safari at Umfolozi on the one day but if I was able, I would definitely return with this game reserve as my choice for a longer visit.

Kruger park doesn't have the same bush ibe as e.g. camping in Moremi or Chobe in Botswana because it is so easy to self drive. But it does have a lot of great wildlife (which can also be a challenge to see because of the thick scrub. I really loved combining the safari element with other wildlife activities such as diving (Mozambique), birding (e.g. penguins at Betty's bay and pelagic seabirds), whale watching (hermanus), sightseeing (Blyde river and Cape town) and shark diving around the cape.
