Kruger National Park Safaris

Kruger National Park and the greater Kruger are is located in the far north-eastern corner of South Africa.

To the east, the Kruger ecosystem borders Mozambique and it also shares a short stretch of the Zimbabwean border to its north.

The region is accessible by scheduled flight to one of several provincial airports. Or alternatively, you may opt to arrive in style with a luxury light aircraft transfer to your lodge’s nearest airstrip.

If you don’t like it too hot then think about travelling between June and August, as daytime temperatures are pleasant and rainfall is a rarity. It’s also the time when it’s easiest to spot the wildlife as the bush thins out and animals congregate around dwindling water sources.

The summer months between November and March can be very hot and humid. Rains are frequent, often taking the form of afternoon showers and can occasionally be disruptive.

The transitional months of April, May, September and October can be a great choice. Particularly if you’re combining your Kruger National Park safari with time in Cape Town. Conditions should be fair and comfortable at both ends of the country.
