Kruger Park Day Tour
A full day tracking the Big Five and the everyday wonders of the African bushveld, in an open safari vehicle with an experienced, permitted guide.
Big Five country, seen properly
From Hoedspruit, we head into Kruger for a full day on the road with one of our experienced local guides. Travelling in an open safari vehicle gives you an uninterrupted view of the bush as we follow the day's sightings, tracks and signs — from the Big Five to the smaller moments that make a day in Kruger memorable.
We'll collect you from your accommodation in Hoedspruit early in the morning, and your guide will spend the day helping you spot as much as possible — from the Big Five to the smaller mammals, birds and reptiles you might otherwise miss. Kruger rewards time in the park, so we make the most of the full day.
Whichever season you visit in, our guides know the park well and will do everything they can to find you great sightings along the way.

Schedule
Details
- Comfortable, closed walking shoes
- Sun protection (hat and sunscreen)
- Camera or binoculars
Kruger is open all year, and each season offers something different. Winter (April–August) brings cooler mornings, thinner vegetation and easier visibility, so sightings tend to be easier. Summer (September–March) brings lush green scenery, migrant birds, young animals and dramatic afternoon skies, though the bush is thicker.
We include return transportation to and from your hotel in an open safari vehicle, driven by an experienced, registered and permitted guide, so you can sit back and focus on the wildlife from the moment you leave your accommodation.
