Kruger & Swaziland Experience!

Kruger National Park and the adjoining private reserves of Greater Kruger National Park form one of Africa’s finest wildlife areas, offering superb viewing opportunities all year round.

In one of thefirst national parks to be established in Africa, the custodians of Kruger faced tragedy, triumph and hardship, as they have strived to protect a pristine wilderness region that is sanctuary to over 700 species of mammals, reptiles and birds.

We spend 3 nights in a private game lodge in Timbavati Game Reserve, part of Greater Kruger National Park, which boasts a similar range of animals to those found in the park proper. These include the 'Big Five', but the private reserves offer more opportunities for varied and close-up encounters. With open 4WD vehicles and a maximum of 9 people in each, there is ample space to observe the many different species as they interact with each other and their environment.

The tour spends one night in Hazyview, a base from where we explore the impressive Blyde River Canyon and visit Bourke's Luck Potholes, as well as enjoy views of the Three Rondavels and the vista from God's Window.

From the wonders of the Panorama Region and Kruger we cross into Swaziland and experience the distinctive Mkhaya Game Reserve, a local success story in the protection of endangered species through successful breeding programs. This reserve offers a highly protected environment, where both the endangered black and white rhinos both flourish.

Two days are spent here, allowing for an abundance of game viewing opportunities. We also soak up the colour of the Kingdom of Swaziland and stop to shop for local handicrafts at a vibrant nearby market, before travelling back to Johannesburg.
