Upon arrival at O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, clients are met by a representative of African Sky Safaris & Tours, who will welcome them and discuss the route and any other questions they might have. Clients are then assisted with obtaining their rental vehicle before embarking on their adventure.
You'll enjoy three nights and four days exploring the park's southern reaches from a base at Skukuza Rest Camp, the largest of the park camps. Skukuza hosts some of the best restaurants in the park, along with a fascinating museum documenting the park's human and natural history.
The camp overlooks the prolific Sabie River, one of Kruger's most significant perennial waterways. The Sabie River will form the backdrop of your game drives, as the route between Skukuza and Lower Sabie Rest Camp is very generous regarding game viewing. Leopards love the large riverine trees, and all walks of wildlife will wander down to the water's edge for a drink.
The river teems with wildlife, including hippos, crocodiles, fish, numerous waterbirds, and even Cape clawless otters. On an evening of your choice, you will accompany a park ranger on a night drive in an open-air 4x4 vehicle. It will allow potential encounters with nocturnal animals like genets and bush babies or hyenas and hippos. The most thrilling sighting is lions or a leopard on a kill, as these big cats often prefer to hunt under the cover of darkness when their prey is most vulnerable.
