Tour Overview
Immerse yourself in the beauty and mystery of the African wilderness with Africa Moja
Tours & Safaris’ exclusive Kruger Sunset Safari with Bush Braai.
Departing from Phabeni Gate near Hazyview, this unforgettable experience combines an exhilarating sunset game drive with a bush-style dinner under the stars inside Kruger National Park — one of Africa’s greatest wildlife sanctuaries.
As the sun dips below the horizon, the bushveld transforms — elephants gather at watering holes, lions stir from their daytime rest, and nocturnal creatures begin to roam. Led by a professional SANParks ranger, your open safari vehicle follows animal tracks in the fading light, using spotlights as darkness sets in to reveal the park’s night-time wonders.
After the drive, you’ll be welcomed to a beautifully lit bush dinner setting within the Kruger area — complete with lanterns, campfire ambiance, and delicious African cuisine served in the heart of nature. This is a sensory experience that captures the true spirit of safari — the sounds, smells, and starlit magic of the African wild.
