Kruger safari tours: your questions answered
How many days do I need in Kruger?
Three to four days gives you several game drives and a good chance of seeing the Big Five. Two days works if you are short on time.
Can I do a Kruger safari from Johannesburg?
Yes. Most of our Kruger packages include pickup in Johannesburg or at OR Tambo airport, plus the drive or flight to Kruger and back.
What is the difference between Kruger and Sabi Sands?
Kruger is a national park with public roads. Sabi Sands is a private reserve next to it where rangers can drive off-road, giving closer sightings, especially of leopards.
Do I need a visa?
Most passport holders from the USA, UK, EU, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore and South Korea can visit South Africa visa-free for short holidays. Rules change, so always check your government's travel advice before booking flights.
How do I book and pay?
You can book online and pay with PayPal or card in US dollars. Trips more than 45 days away need only a 30% deposit; the balance is due later.
