KRUGER PARK SAFARIS – FULL DAY
Full-day open-vehicle Kruger safari from Hazyview with an expert guide, Big Five viewing, and rest-camp meal stops; private vehicle options available.
Experience a full-day Kruger National Park safari from Hazyview in an open 4×4 vehicle with a professional guide. Kruger is home to the Big Five and the greatest variety of large mammals in South Africa, and a full day gives you time to explore multiple habitats, waterholes, and rest camps. Depart early, settle into elevated seats for better game viewing and photos, and let your guide share animal behavior, tracks, and bush lore along the way. You’ll stop at Kruger rest camps for breakfast and lunch (own account) or bring a packed meal. Private vehicles are available and required for families with children under 6 years.

You’ll pay your entry fee directly to SANParks when you arrive at the gate. Kruger National Park is a cashless environment, so please bring a debit or credit card for payment. Valid Wild Cards are accepted for entry. Yes—safaris still go out in the rain. Guides carry rain ponchos, and the vehicle’s side panels can be rolled down for extra protection. Summer rain cools the air and wildlife sightings are still possible. Please dress for changing weather conditions (light jacket or rain layer). Animals in the Kruger Park are free roaming, so sightings can't be guaranteed. Our guides do however use an internal comms system to find the best animal sightings, and will do their best to ensure that you receive WOW animal encounters during your safari. Bring your ID/Passport, a hat, sunscreen, and snacks. Don’t forget a camera or smartphone and a power bank so you never miss a WOW moment!How do we pay the Kruger National Park entry fee?
