Going Wild for the Kruger National Park

“It is the voice of Africa, and with it comes to me a sense of boundless peace and contentment.”

This sentence is on the first page of the memoir of the first warden of the Kruger National Park. James Stevenson-Hamilton wrote that in 1902 and dubbed this wildlife paradise a South African Eden. 

Here at Destination Africa, we couldn’t agree more. Speaking to the team, it is clear that most of us rate Kruger as one of the best authentic safari adventures one can have. And we are talking from first-hand experience.

Content creator and copywriter Liryn has driven through those gates more than 100 times, the first time as a little girl and more than 40 years later it is still her favourite destination on the planet. Says Liryn “Kruger is not a place to be read about, it is one to be experienced. So come on, what are you waiting for?!”

With the Big Five, the countless other species that call the park home, the hundreds of different birds that crisscross the sky, and the different activities on offer like game drives and walking safaris, Kruger truly has it all. Extend that to the Greater Kruger which includes a handful of world-class private game reserves with luxurious accommodations and that share unfenced boundaries with the national park, and you will be hard-pressed to find a better travel excursion. 

This week’s newsletter focuses on everything the Kruger National Park and Greater Kruger offers and how Destination Africa can help you make your clients’ safari dreams to this incredible destination come true. 

As always, partner with us and discover the beauty and diversity of Africa.
