Go on the ultimate safari by taking advantage of Kruger National Park packages
Answer to the call of the wild. Experience the true splendour and breathtaking beauty of the pristine African landscape by taking advantage of the Kruger National Park packages available. Wake up to the sound of wild birds chirping in the trees, see a myriad of wild animals in their natural habitat and feel the warmth of the African sun on your skin. The world famous Kruger National Park is the largest reserve of its kind in South Africa, covering approximately 19 000 km 2 (± 7 400 mi 2), and is also the park that boasts with the largest selection of mammals in the country. Certainly a must-see if you are planning a true African holiday.
Situated in the north-eastern part of South Africa, it forms part of the subtropical Lowveld biosphere. The summer days are hot and humid and this is also the rainfall period. The best time to visit would be during the winter, which is from May to August. The days are milder and the mosquitoes less. This is significant, since this does fall in a malaria area and precaution is necessary. Making use of Kruger National Park packages during the winter months will also allow you to spot more wildlife easier, as the vegetation is sparser and animals congregate around established waterholes more often.
There is certainly no shortage of animals in the Kruger National Park. Its 147 species of mammals include, of course, the Big Five – the lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhinoceros. Other animals include zebras, giraffes, cheetahs and a wide variety of bucks among others. There are also 114 species of reptiles, including approximately 3 000 crocodiles. It is also a birdwatcher's paradise with about 517 species of birds found here.
