You have explained it fantastically well. Lots of appreciation and love. 😊👍🏼
Thanks. It's a wonderful place on earth.
Awesome video. We have just booked 19 nights in Kruger staying at 12 of the camps within the park. Self drive in October.
Wow, so amazing. If you need co-pilots, let us know 🤪. Enjoy this epic trip!
@@HolamundoCH sure; meet you at the gate at 3:00pm. 😀
@@stuartarmet3526 🤣
Amazing and detailed guide. Thanks
Thanks! Happy it is useful.
Great tips! Thank you 🙏🏻
Welcome!
I found your tips and details very valuable, one of the most informative and helpful videos I’ve watched, thank you😊👍
Wow, thank you. Happy it was helpful 👍
Wow! This video was so informative and answered all the questions I had. We are planning on going in September!
Cool. Happy to hear. Enjoy your trip.
As a long time Kruger visitor I found your tips Spot On! Great set of tips for first time visitors. If you haven’t been yet I would suggest adding Talamati and Biyamiti Bush camps to your list……they are our favorites.
Thanks for the suggestion. They will be definitely on our list! Happy you like it :-)
I loved your video even as a regular visitor. I agree with the other reaction. Do not advert or use Numbi gate,its not safe.
Thanks!
Very useful video! But what's the price for a sunset safari or a morning walk, considering the access with a Wildcard and with accommodation outside of the park. Thank you! 😊
That pretty much depends where you book it (national park, lodge). It can be around 30 USD per person or much more.
hello, thank you, helps me a lot. I have a question: why choose to sleep at the border inside the park such as malelane satellite camp when you are so close to a gate? is it difficult to drive in and out of the park? I can imagine if you are in the middle of the park that driving back and forth to a gate is time consuming and not interesting. how many nights did you stay at 1 camp on average? It is not advisable to stay in a different camp every night? What could be better: organized morning or evening or night excursions?
It depends on the season where to sleep. Generally speaking, sleeping inside the park is for us always a better option because the wild feeling is better, you can spot animals at the fence, you have a better feel of nature. But, quality is lower and it is pretty costly. But in high season, sleeping inside the park has another advantag. Often, the park is closed after a certain number of day visitors. But, if you have accomodation in the park, you are already in. So no danger of not being able to get in. As you can see in our videos, when we slept outside during ZA school holiday, we were at the gate a 4.30 am to wait till it opened at 6 - just to not run the risk to be left outside.
We advise to at least spend 2 nights in the same camp. It always takes a while to figure out wher ethe animals are. So staying 2 nights gives you more chances to see them at the right place.
Excursions: we prefere morning bush walks and evening game drives!
Thanks a lot! Wouldn’t it be best to start up north, in Punta Maria for example? Could you please advise on what kind of car is best to rent, especially if it might rain in December? Also, where is the best place to look for accommodations to start booking now? We’re not camping in a tent, but we’re looking for something simple and clean (not fancy or expensive). I apologize for so many questions-I just feel a bit lost.
I would start in the south. There you have the highest density of animals. So you can tick off all the boxes quickly and then only enjoy and take everything additional as a bonus. Also, inthe south the end of dec./jan is so busy, you will be happy to start there and when the crowds come you are in the empty north.
If you stay longer than 7 days in the park buy a wildcard. It will be cheaper for you. The wildcard as well as all accomodation in the park that is simple (meaning the official camps) can be books on www.sanparks.org/. We only booked it there and it was all good. It takes a while to figure out how it works. But in the end it is easy and simple ti book and pay directly. You need to prinb out all reservations you have made in the park and show it at the gate.
Take the sanpark website as reference for everything and you will be guided and be on the safe side.
Great video! Thank you. Could you please help me with the best way to plan my trip to Kruger with my son? We will be in South Africa from December 9th to January 11th (I understand it’s not the best time). Time is not an issue; what we would like is to spot as many of the Big 5 as possible. We are willing to rent a car (though we’re unsure if it’s better to rent it in Johannesburg or in Kruger). Any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks. I would directly rent a car from Johannesburg Airport. It is super easy and efficient and very convenient. No need to look for a cab, just jump into the rental car and drive to your accomodation. We always do this! And it is more affordable than in Kruger. Flying into Kruger is super expensive, also car rental. And they only have a limited choice. I would drive to Marloth Park first. Spend a night or 2 there and then continue into the south of Kruger, maybe spend a night at Berg-en-Dal and Lower Sabie. From there I would go to Satara and Tamboti Tented Camp. With these 4 camps you surely will find the Big 5! We managed to find them in a single day! Book the camps beforehand, especially in that time of the year.
A great video! Especially for people coming to Kruger for the first time. But...I realy want to say something. I've seen you saying (also in other video's) to use Numbi Gate. Don't you not know that it's not safe there? Tourists have been robbed (or worse) there. Not so long ago there was a armed robbery. At every Facebook page you will read not to use that gate. I don't know if you will do anything with this information but realy wanted to share this with you. 😊. I realy loved all you're other video's about Kruger to!. Greetings from Holland and a big Kruger lover!
Thanks for the info. We had no issues at the Numbi Gate and also talked to other people who were fine. But good for sharing, so if others are scared they should better use another gate. Over all, we observed pokice around all the gates. We always felt safe.
You both are so so kind I would like to contact you personally could I get your email ID
