How many days should I spend on safari in Kruger National Park?

You can easily add multiple destinations to your South African safari – for example, Cape Town and Victoria Falls. But don't worry if you don't know where to start, our Travel Experts can map out the ultimate itinerary for you! 

How much does a Kruger National Park safari tour cost?

Our Kruger National Park safari tours are tailor-made.

Contact our Travel Experts, and they can give you a good idea of what you can expect.

Where is Kruger National Park located?

The Kruger National Park is located in northeastern South Africa, in the Limpopo and Mpumalanga provinces. There are a couple of ways to get to the national park. There are daily flights from Johannesburg OR Tambo International Airport, and often you can fly from here straight to a private airstrip near the lodges. This is certainly the most convenient way to reach your safari lodge and generally takes about 90 minutes. Please note, however, that your luggage will be limited to 20kg in soft-sided bags for these smaller aircraft.

Alternatively, you can fly to Kruger Mpumalanga, Skukuza, or Hoedspruit airports. From here, you can travel to your lodge via road transfer or a "lodge hop" in a small aircraft.  

However, if you prefer a self-drive trip, it's entirely possible. Kruger is roughly a six-hour drive from Johannesburg airport. 

Depending on where you stay, our Travel Experts can recommend the best option for you.
