We saw the big five within 1.5 hour. A real sensation was to see a group of a hundred buffaloes coming to the drinking place. Dust was coming up like you know from a cowboy movie. At an other drinking place the zebra's were waiting for theire turn at the drinking place at the moment that the elephants were drinking and washing.

It is South Africa's most popular park to visit.The weather is nice all year round making it very popular and making it the best game park in RSA if not the world .Game is plentiful in the park and making it possible to see the Big 5.Time is needed if one is really to enjoy beauty of the scenery,there is just too much to see.The park also offers night drives which is an awesome experience on its own.The park on a whole is well maintained.The accommodation and catering is of high standard.

Despite the crowds in certain areas (particularly around the larger rest stops like Skukuza) and the limitation to the roads, Kruger offers an amazing array of animals and great access to them. Talk to other travelers about locations for animal watching. Drive yourself through part of the park - there's a unique value to spotting that lion yourself.

Largest of our game parks and again during the peak season it can get a bit busy.
Best time to visit I have found was during August - September time and I have spotted plenty of game during this time.

I have only been there on a day-trip, but even then I still saw a leopard, cheetahs, elephants, buffalo, rhinos, countless antelope and wonderful birds. It really does deserve its reputation as one of the best holiday destinations in South Africa.

The wildlife viewing in the Kruger is spectacular, if you are willing to jostle amongst dozens of vehicles for the experience. Camps are crowded and noisy during holidays.

It is the one destination one cannot miss if you are remotely interested in wildlife. The diversity is amazing and you cannot believe all you see most times.

Everything about Kruger is fantastic, the many camps, each one with a different atmosphere and bird life and each one providing one with a new adventue.

The best thing is the self drive and options to do game drives with rangers from the various camps. One need at least a week to explore different camps and settings and the Park is vast from North to South. Good binoculars at least 12x50 is a must have for this trip. Feast of wildlife and birding. Accommodation range from camping to luxury houses. The Kruger is a TREASURE!
