The Kruger National Park is one of the world’s premier nature reserves, and you will spend a significant amount of time exploring it during this four-day safari.
The Panorama Route refers to the escarpment area in Mpumalanga Province where the Drakensberg mountains separate the Highveld from the Lowveld to the east. The Panorama Route along the escarpment is one of South Africa’s most scenic areas and include the Blyde canyon that extends for 50kms along the escarpment.
This safari offers a full-day safari in the Kruger National Park as well as a full-day tour of the Panorama Route.
A full day in the Kruger National Park may sound exhausting, but the guides make frequent stops at rest stops and lookout points. As you travel through different grasslands and ecological zones, you will have a better chance of seeing more wildlife.
Your five-day itinerary will include a sunset / night safari on day 1, a full-day open vehicle safari on day 2, a full-day Panorama Route on day 3 and 2 morning safaris in the Kruger Park on Day 4 and 5.
Your chances are very good to see all of the Big 5 – lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and buffalo. The Kruger National Park is home to 148 mammal and 500 bird species. So there’s a lot to see and photograph.
