Highlights

  • Safari through a private game reserve next to Kruger National Park in an open top 4WD and local guides who know all the best spots.
  • Enjoy traditional South African cuisine while dining under the stars, then fall asleep to the sounds of nocturnal wildlife from your lodge.
  • Try to spot the Big Five in Kruger National Park on a full day game drive – can you spot a lion, leopard, buffalo, hippo, giraffe and zebra?
  • Stay in a comfortable safari lodge in a communal setting with friendly hosts – this lodge sits in the greater Kruger area and is in a great spot for daily safaris.
  • Visit the awesome Blyde River Canyon and view the Three Rondavels on your return trip to Johannesburg.

    Interpret war ein sehr guter Anbieter. Nur die Buchung über Tourradar war nicht besonders reibungslos.

    It was an arranged tour by Intrepid together with their lodge/private reserve partners. As for me, I stayed at Bondux lodge and I has a great experience. The staff were friendly and well informed. The accommodation is great, meals and optional activities. I enjoyed chilling at the deack and watching the animals come. Also, the optional activity that I took was Endangered Animals Reserve and Blyde Canyon boat tour.

    First time participation. First and last Africa. It was great to experience this safari. 6 hours to go, 8 hours to return, not much trouble. Close to the Big 5 was seen. It's not a zoo. now. A wild, lively animal is in front of you. Impressive thing.

    Kruger is amazing, as was the game drive. If I were to do it again, I'd change my optional day's itinerary from the panorama route tour (overpriced for what you get, and you see the best part of it included in your return drive to joburg) for another day in Kruger.

    5+ Stars! I had the most AMAZING experience with INTREPID on a safari in South Africas, Kruger National Park. We saw all the big 5, ate well, felt safe, and had an absolutely amazing once in a lifetime type guide! I very strongly advise those who choose this trip to ask for a man who works at the Timbaviti game lodge named Johane. This is the guy you want taking you on African safari for the unforgettable experience and amazing photographs! The highest of recommendations for this guide and his camping safari. -Tristan
