What to Expect on a Fly-In Safari

 Flight from Cape Town to Kruger

Depending on the season, you may fly directly into Skukuza Airport, located inside Kruger National Park, or into Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport, which is just 45 minutes from multiple park gates. Your friendly Africa Moja Tours guide meets you at the airport and transfers you to your lodge.

 Check-In at Your Safari Lodge

We offer a range of accommodations—from comfortable 3-star lodges to luxurious 5-star safari villas. Popular options include:

• Tembo Guest Lodge (budget/mid-range)
• Skukuza Safari Lodge (inside Kruger, 4-star)
• Kruger Gate Hotel (4-star premium)
• Elephant Point Lodge (5-star luxury)

After check-in, enjoy a refreshing drink, relax, and prepare for your first Big Five encounter.

 Open-Vehicle Safari Game Drives

All fly-in packages include morning and afternoon open-vehicle game drives. These are the best times for wildlife viewing, as animals are most active during sunrise and sunset.

Your ranger will take you across riverbeds, grasslands, woodlands, and iconic rest camps, looking for:

• Lion prides
• Leopard sightings
• Elephants and large herds
• Buffalo and rhinos
• Giraffes, zebras, hippos, and more
