Kruger Park Day Safari is a creatively designed 1 Day Kruger Safari tour from your hotel in Johannesburg to the home of the Big 5, Kruger Park, in one day. Depart from your hotel around 5 am and stop for breakfast in Middleburg around 7 am. From there, drive for another 2 hours and stop again at 9 am for coffee in Nelspruit.
From here you’ll head straight to the Park and depending on the time you arrive, you will either eat lunch before the afternoon game driver or decide on what to do and take the lunch later. We will explore these big Park looking for those animals lurking in the bush with our main focus being the BIG 5 and other wildlife. Occasionally, we will visit the water holes to see if we catch a pride of Lions or an elephant family quenching their thirst as we did deeper and deeper into the Park. We will continue exploring the Park in our Kruger Park Tours
