Short tour from Johannesburg exploring the Kruger National Park and surrounding area
This short but exciting tour takes you to one of the world’s most renowned game parks, the Kruger National Park. You’ll have the ideal opportunity to see the big 5, Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Rhino and Buffalo! This is an 'accommodated' tour, so you'll spend all nights in lodges/hotels/permanent tents rather than basic camping. We start this adventure leaving Johannesburg and your first stop for will be at God's Window where you will be able to take in the amazing views. Next, head deep into the park in search of wildlife. Kruger National Park was founded in 1898 and covers nearly and area of approximately 2 million hectares. The park has an unrivalled diversity of wildlife with approximately 145 mammal species including the famed 'Big Five', a collection of over 500 bird species, some of which are not to be found elsewhere in South Africa, and 336 tree species grow in the park. After 2 full days in the park we head back to Johannesburg along the beautiful Panoramic Route, passing through the towering cliffs of Blyde River Canyon, one of South Africa's most amazing natural wonders. Important Note: the itinerary below is written with an optional Activity Package included. This optional payment covers what we consider highly recommended activities on the tour. Separating these activities out is designed to help people with differing budgets. If required, the Activity Package should be pre-purchased prior to your arrival to guarantee availability and to help your guides plan ahead to help the smooth running of the tour.
