Package holiday to Kruger National Park

Kruger National Park is Africa's most famous and one of the largest national parks in the world. Covering an area of nearly 20,000 square kilometers — larger than Saxony — it offers an unparalleled wildlife experience, ranging from budget self-drive safaris to the ultimate luxury lodge experience.

The biodiversity is breathtaking: 147 species of mammals, 517 species of birds, and 114 species of reptiles live here. The 'Big Five' — lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhinoceros — are regularly seen, along with cheetahs, wild dogs (one of the rarest predators in Africa), giraffes, zebras, hippos, and crocodiles. The chances of seeing a wide range of African wildlife in a single day are higher here than anywhere else.

What makes Kruger unique is its accessibility. You can traverse the park in your own rental car on paved roads and search for animals yourself — an exciting experience that is not possible in most other African parks. The SANParks rest camps offer affordable accommodations with bungalows, campsites, and restaurants right in the park.

For the ultimate safari experience, the private game reserves on the western edge of the park — Sabi Sand, Timbavati, Manyeleti — offer exclusive game drives in open 4x4 vehicles with experienced rangers. Here, the animal density is particularly high, vehicles are allowed to leave the roads, and the luxury lodges with their infinity pools and gourmet kitchens set the standard for safari enjoyment.

The southern part of the park (Lower Kruger) around Skukuza and Lower Sabie has the highest animal density and the best roads — ideal for first-time visitors. The northern part is wilder, less visited, and offers stunning landscapes with baobab trees and sandstone formations. A week is hardly enough to explore both halves.

Kruger National Park particularly impresses with breathtaking nature. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
