Safari Tours from Hoedspruit

We recommend the Full-Day Kruger National Park Safari for first-time visitors. It gives you 8-10 hours inside the park with an experienced guide who knows the best routes for Big Five sightings, includes a brunch stop at a rest camp, and covers a large area of the park from Orpen Gate. The full-day format gives you the best chance of seeing lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard in a single outing.

Kruger National Park is a vast 2-million-hectare public reserve with tarred and dirt roads, rest camps and self-drive options — our guided safaris here give you the authentic wild Kruger experience. Private game reserves bordering Kruger (like those used for our game drives) are smaller, fenced areas where vehicles can go off-road for closer wildlife encounters, and Big Five densities can be higher. Both offer excellent safari experiences; many guests combine both for variety.

Full-Day Kruger safaris now include park entry fees in the per-person price (R2,065-R2,315 pp depending on group size). For half-day safaris and game drives on private reserves, conservation or entry fees are typically included — check the specific tour page or your quote for exact inclusions. We always provide transparent pricing with no hidden costs.

Yes! Our 11-Day Kruger Glamping Safari is a comprehensive package covering the north to south of Kruger with camping and glamping accommodation. We also create custom multi-day itineraries combining Kruger safaris with Panorama Route tours, Blyde River Canyon, wildlife centres and luxury lodge stays. Contact us with your preferred duration and interests for a bespoke multi-day package.

Yes, children of all ages are welcome on our safari tours. Private safaris are especially suited to families — the guide can adapt the pace, make more frequent stops and tailor the experience for younger children. We recommend full-day safaris for children aged 5 and older due to the length. Children under 6 must remain seated during game drives for safety. Family discounts may apply — contact us for a tailored family quote.
