    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.

    Asked on June 9th, 2022

    Is there a minimum number of pax to start the tour?

      Cathy

      TravelerWritten June 2022

      Is there an option to be dropped off at Kruger airport on the last day?

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten June 2022

      There would be the ability to get to the airport that you wish- it is 162miles away from Kruger National Park, but you would be able to arrange a transfer in destination. You would be leaving the group if this is your choice and you would 'sign off' of the tour. There is no pro rating for any missed portions.

    Asked on December 1st, 2016

    Can you arrange a pre/post accommodation for us?

    Accommodation
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten December 2016

      Yes an additional pre/post tour accommodation and transfers can be arranged, however please note that the pricing for the Cape Town experience is for Hostel accommodation, not 3 star hotel, and it seems like this is not available as an option in this independent tour.

    Rita

    Asked on March 1st, 2016

    What is considered the BIG 5?

    Other
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten March 2016

      The Big 5 are considered the five most difficult animals in Africa to hunt on foot, chosen for the difficulty in hunting them and the degree of danger involved, rather than their size. These five animals are the African lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, African leopard, and White/Black rhinoceros and you have an excellent chance of seeing all of them on this tour.
