SAFARIS
Kruger National Park
A Kruger National Park safari features on top of many people’s bucket list of things to do.
Game viewing from open safari vehicles in the Kruger National Park has to be one of the ultimate safari experiences in Africa, and being able to do this in a day is ideal for those who have limited time available to spend on safari. A day trip is an ideal way to experience the park and all it has to offer.
You can relax while relying on the skills of your highly experienced and skilled guide to ensure a truly authentic safari experience. An early morning start allows for sufficient time to appreciate an overview of this iconic destination. Elephant Herd guides will endeavour to find all the wonderful treasures of the Kruger National Park including the Big 5. Our guides are dedicated to, and passionate about the bush and all it has to offer, from the over 500 bird species, 147 mammal species, 110 reptile species as well as the numerous bugs and insects. They also have vast knowledge of the trees, grasses and plants and their various medicinal uses.
During the course of the day our guides will visit a scenic picnic spot or one of the Rest Camps for a breakfast stop and/or lunch stop, allowing time for a meal and to stretch the legs before setting off to explore more of the African bush.
