KRUGER PROPER

The sheer number and variety of animals in Kruger Park naturally demand that all safaris cannot exclude a full day in Kruger. We travel from our lodges to Kruger along a road that skirts numerous private game reserves and we always see animals even before we enter Kruger. There are various biomes that we visit and in Kruger we have the chance of seeing specials such as Wild Dog and Sable Antelope that are generally absent from other reserves.

GUIDES’ CONTRIBUTION

Our tourist guides make it their business to find out where the animals are. In Balule we are in radio contact with one another and with guides from other lodges.

In Kruger proper, we receive updates from other guides as well as Kruger rangers. We have found that the SA public are very considerate and good – they stop our drivers and inform them of where they have had sightings !

 

Compared to other operators and lodges that operate in only one reserve, Viva Safaris has far greater possibilities of delivering great animal sightings including all Big Five, time after time.
