KRUGER NATIONAL PARK
There’s no other wilderness area in Africa as accessible as the Kruger. The roads are good and if you camp, stay in a basic unit or visit during low season, you won’t have to take out another bond. There are animals everywhere and the park remains refreshingly wild.
DO THIS: Go for a guided morning walk in the veld – you can do this from most of the main camps in the park: R630 p.p.
Daily conservation fee: R110 per adult; R55 per child aged 2–11; free with a Wild card.
ACCOMMODATION: The accommodation options and prices differ from camp to camp, but in general, you can expect to pay these 2022 high season rates, or more.
The main rest camps are Berg-en-Dal, Crocodile Bridge, Letaba, Lower Sabie, Mopani, Olifants, Orpen, Pretoriuskop, Punda Maria, Satara, Shingwedzi and Skukuza.
