The largest game reserve in South Africa, Kruger National Park is basically a synonym for the word "safari." Home to over 500 bird species, 100 reptiles, nearly 150 mammals, multiple archaeological sites, and a stunningly diversity of trees and flowers, Kruger is the country’s flagship national park. Adventurers can explore the park in a 4x4, take a bush walk or fly above in a hot-air balloon.

Robbie is the best kind of guide you could expect from a trip. Actually we became good friends out of the 5 day safaris. He was more than just a ordinary guide to show you the landscape and wildlifes he was brought up around, but also like to exchange ideas and inspire you from many aspects of life. How much I wish I would stay with him longer to learn more about their culture and customs. I would really want to recommend him to any tourist who expect to explore the wilderness on the African continent. You will finally find that the tour is much more worth than you initially expect. And you definitely benefit hugely from it all.
