Kruger National Park & Greater Kruger, South Africa

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Kruger National Park is one of Africa's largest and most celebrated game reserves, covering nearly two million hectares across South Africa's Limpopo and Mpumalanga provinces. It is home to an exceptional concentration of wildlife, including the Big Five — lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo — alongside hundreds of bird species and diverse ecosystems ranging from savanna to riverine forest. The Greater Kruger region extends the wilderness further through a network of private game reserves, such as Sabi Sand and Timbavati, which share unfenced boundaries with the park. Travellers come here for world-class safari experiences, from self-drive game drives to guided bush walks and luxury lodge stays.

Kruger Park Self-Launched Safari: Greater Kruger Lodges, Treehouses & Blyde River Canyon

A DIY version of Viva Safaris' 4-day Lodge & Treehouse Kruger safari. Instead of a packaged group departure from Johannesburg, you book a cheap intercity bus or shuttle from Joburg to Hoedspruit, base yourself in budget lodges and treehouse camps in the greater Kruger area, and book Big Five game drives, a guided bush walk and a full Kruger self-drive (or shared open-vehicle tour) day yourself. Finish with a morning in Blyde River Canyon on the Panorama Route before heading back to Johannesburg. Same wildlife encounters, a fraction of the package price — all costs are approximate per person in GBP and assume camping/budget-lodge rates in the greater Kruger lowveld.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Kruger National Park & Greater Kruger, South Africa yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
