What kind of accommodation is provided during the safari?

Accommodation is typically in quality, mid-range hotels in Johannesburg and comfortable, well-located lodges or rest camps near (or within) Kruger National Park.

Is the international airfare truly included in the price?

Yes, the quoted price of $2,735 includes international round-trip airfare from select gateway cities in the US. Specific routes and potential supplements depend on your departure city and travel dates.

What are the 'Big 5' and how likely am I to see them?

The Big 5 are the Lion, Elephant, Buffalo, Leopard, and Rhinoceros. Kruger National Park is one of the best places in the world to see all five, and our professional guides maximize your viewing opportunities.

When is the best time of year to take this tour?

The dry winter season (May to September) offers the best wildlife viewing as animals congregate around limited water sources, making sightings easier.

Are the game drives in open or closed vehicles?

Our thrilling game drives are conducted in specialized, open safari vehicles to provide you with the best, unobstructed viewing and photography opportunities.
