South Africa Safari Holidays


The Kruger National Park is one of the most famous safari destinations in the world. With its network of National Park run guest houses and rest camps, it allows the visitor to self-drive around much of the park in their own cars on an excellent network of tarmac roads. Around the park in private comcessions such as Sabi Sands, are many exclusive (and some very expensive) private lodges, that offer an unforgettable safari experience.

For those with children, or just passing through Johannesburg and looking for something a bit closer, there is the Pilanesberg
. This National Park still offers the opportunity to see the Big 5 - Lions, leopards, rhino, elephants and Cape Buffalo, but is also Malaria free.

Another popular option is to stay at one of the Game Reserves located in the Cape Provinces, allowing them to be combined easily with Cape Town. These private reserves are fenced and cover many thousands of hectares, giving a true safari experience and with a high chance of good game-viewing. The Addo National Park in the Cape actually claims to offer the Big 7! – The usual 5 + whales and sharks.
