The Kruger walking safari runs every Mon-Fri (5 day / 4 night). We operate throughout the year and all departures are guaranteed but bookings need to be made in advance. The unfenced camps are private and secluded and not open to day visitors. Each camp can sleep up to 12 people in large walk-in twin-bedded tents (linen is provided, so sleeping bags are not needed) with sown-in mosquito screens. Ablutions are separate but close with hot showers and flush toilets.
Although there is no electricity, there is solar lighting, candles, lanterns and a campfire to guide you around the camp at night. Meals are prepared in the kitchen tent and served in the dining tent. Each safari is accompanied by one or two experienced and armed rangers and each camp is serviced by a Shangaan chef. The combination of walks and drives in the open 4x4 Landrover are dependent on weather and animal movements and are conducted from camp in the early mornings, late afternoons and at night. See Itineraries for more details.
The safari is basic and designed to experience the bush the way one should: on foot. After the first walk you'll realize you've gone back in time – one with your ancestors who roamed these African trails. Although in Big Five areas, there are no guarantees on sightings – what you see is what you get. We do however guarantee a real bush experience!
The safari prices are inclusive of transfers to and from JHB and Pretoria (pick-up from your hotel, drop off at your hotel or JHB International), all meals and accommodation in our unfenced tented camps, all walks and drives. Excluded are drinks from the honesty bar in camp and the once-off payment of max R200 pp for Conservation Levies for the Reserves we operate in.
