5 Day Safari Inside the Kruger Park

This tour is designed for the traveler with a little more time and wishes to spend a bit more time out on safari in the world famous Kruger National Park. See all this amazing place to offer, but also have time to put your feet up and enjoy the tranquility that is nature! The Kruger Park is one of the largest conservation areas in the world and gives you the best chance to experience all that Africa has to offer. On top of the 147 mammal species that can be found throughout the reserve it also has a remarkable 507 bird, 114 reptile, 49 fish, 34 amphibian, 227 butterfly and 336 tree species. From the BIG 5: Lion, Leopard, buffalo, rhino and Elephant, to the endangered Cheetah and Wild dog, we guarantee you’ll find what you looking for! We will pick you up at Johannesburg International airport or hotel in Johannesburg/ Pretoria and transport you to the Kruger National park for this once in a lifetime safari. You will spend the next 5 days exploring all the wildlife this amazing park has to offer. Enjoy a combination of activities from private game drives with your highly qualified private guide to open vehicle night drives with the rangers. Indulge in some authentic South African cuisine, prepared and served to you under the splendor of the African stars! We offer private safaris to couples, friends and families, which gives you the ultimate flexibility, and along with our passion for wildlife and our attention to detail makes our trips very special.

-Arrival Day

We will pick you up at Johannesburg International airport or JHB accommodation and transport you to the Kruger National park. After booking into your accommodation you will embark on your first small game drive to get your first feel of the African bush. The length of the drive will depend on what time we manage to leave the airport and how tired you the weary traveller is. Watch the sunset over the savanna as you begin ticking off the myriad of wildlife this incredible place has to offer. Expect to see antelope, giraffe and elephant, but who knows perhaps as the day cools the elusive predators might show themselves! After gate closing it is a quick dinner prepared on open coals, before heading to bed in preparation for an exciting second day. Read more

Kruger National Park Camp 1

Full day Kruger Safari

It is an early rise as the camp gates open at sunrise. There is a reason for this, besides the opportunity to witness an incredible African sunrise, it also increases the chance of seeing the nocturnal predators still moving about. Not to worry though, a hot cup of coffee/ tea will be on hand to kick start those engines. You will head out into the reserve, one of the benefits of staying in the Kruger Camps is that you will be out in the deep wilderness within seconds of leaving your bungalow. You will drive around searching for wildlife for a few hours and then stop in a beautiful location for a snack breakfast, comprising of fruit, rusks (South African biscuit), muffins and yogurt, along with a coffee/ tea. Then it is off again to continue your safari adventure. Mid-morning is a great time to see the herbivours moving towards the waterholes to drink as the land begins to warm and the predators tend to slow down. It is around 11am, just as your tummies start to rumble, that your guide will pull up to a picnic area and prepare you a cooked breakfast. These picnic areas are situated on rivers and waterholes, giving you a chance to put your feet up and watch the animals come to you. You then head back to camp for the heat of the day. It is up to you what you would like to do, take a walk around, sit at the fence and enjoy the fence and watch the animals come past or simply take a nap. Once the heat of the day passes enjoy a snack lunch of cheese, biscuits, biltong (SA meat) and other goodies. You will then join the park safari guides for a sunset drive, in their open game drive vehicles. You will head out an hour before sunset, and when the darkness descends, pull out spotlights to find the animals. This night time activity allows you the chance to see some nocturnal animals that you would not see during the day usually, as well as predators like lion and leopard are more active. You will arrive back to camp to a hearty meal prepared on the braai (BBQ). This is a long standing SA tradition and always a firm favourite. Gather round the camp fire, with the sounds of the wilderness as your company. Read more

Kruger Park camp second nigh

Kruger Safari, Change Camp

Once again head out early for a game drive, but this time return to camp for your breakfast snacks. Then we pack up and check out as we move to another area of the reserve. We always like to move to give you the guest a chance to experience different views and habitats. The entire time you are on game drive, so will still be viewing and ticking animals of your ever increasing list. Again, mid-morning you will have a cooked brunch at a picnic spot and then keep heading onward to your new camp. Check into your new environment in the early afternoon and enjoy some leisure time. As the sun dips and things start to cool, head out on a drive with your private guide and vehicle. Your highly qualified guide will use all his experience to find you anything that may be missing from the animal list. Certain animals like certain habitats, so knowing this and a keen eye are essential to spotting something out of the ordinary. Enjoy your final sunset, before heading to camp for a delicious farewell dinner. Chat around the crackling camp fire, recalling the memories of your adventure filled last few days. A night cap under the incredible African stars is the perfect send off! Read more

Kruger Camp (different)

Alternative Activities Day

It is time for a bit of extra adventure today as you take a thrilling Bush Walk. Join the Kruger park rangers for an extremely informative and interesting walk out in the wilderness. Get close up to nature and learn about the interlinking ecosystems. Although this is highly recommended we do realize this activity won't be for everybody, if it is not for you it will be substituted for another open vehicle drive. Spend the heat of the day relaxing and enjoy the view from the camp, take a dip in the pool or a little siesta. Then after lunch take another exciting game drive with your private safari guide. Perhaps spend some time at a waterhole and wait for the incredible wildlife to come to you. Have supper fairly early back at camp because tonight you will take a night drive. This starts well into the night and lasts 2 hours, giving you a chance to see all the nocturnal animals as they are well into their nightly routines by now. Read more

Kruger Camp

Departure Day

Today we depart the Kruger, but not before one last memorable game drive. You will head out with the park guides in the open vehicle once again, using the spotlight before the sunrise. As there has been no traffic over night, being the first ones out increases your chance of seeing something on the road and to get up close and personal. You will then return to camp for a quick breakfast and to check out of your accommodation. Head for the exit gate but keep your eyes peeled as anything could pop out the bush! Exit the park and return to JHB. Read more

Gwen H., United States

Going on a safari is an amazing experience and not having to worry about logistics or a single detail is why you want to go with Endless Summer Tours!!! They coordinated every aspect of our trip from airport pick-up to drop-off, we didn't have to think about a thing...only enjoy! We stayed 2 nights in a private camp / chalet and then 1 night at a more resort-type camp. Accommodations were better than expected. Rhys and Brett prepared our meals, including a traditional South African braai (BBQ), and treated us to some nice South African wine and the local specialty Amarula. A dinner was also planned at a restaurant in the reserve that had a buffet of tasty dishes and authentic singing and dancing by the waitstaff...really cool experience. On safari, we got to see 4 of the big 5 and lots of other animals. Throughout the trip, both shared their extensive experience and knowledge that helped us appreciate our experience even more. All of us were extremely happy. Overall, it was an awesome adventure. Read more

Andschurr, United States

Four friends and I booked with Endless Summer Tours for a two-day, one-night safari in Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Game Reserve. We were blown away by the entire experience in the best possible way. Our guides were so much fun, informative, and GREAT cooks! We were so lucky we were able to be upgraded to a bush lodge in the park for our one night stay. It was so peaceful to be so far out in the wilderness. On our game drives we saw so many rhinos, giraffes, and elephants. My favorite part of the safari, however, was driving through the beautiful wilderness. Endless Summer Tours was so accommodating - I can't overemphasize how awesome Endless Summer Tours was from the moment I contacted them to book a tour until the very end of our travels. We had an unforgettable experience and will definitely be using Endless Summer Tours for future visit to South Africa! Read more
