Kruger Safari Vacations

The perfect tailor made Kruger safari holiday

South Africa’s most iconic safari destination, the Kruger and its private reserves promise unforgettable wildlife encounters in one of Africa’s richest ecosystems.

Covering nearly 20,000 square kilometres in the country’s northeast, Kruger National Park is vast and varied, with landscapes ranging from open savannah and riverine forest to rocky outcrops and fever tree groves. Wildlife is prolific here — think big cats, elephant herds, buffalo, rhino, wild dog, giraffe and hundreds of bird species. The park is home to the Big Five, but it’s often the moments in between that linger longest: a herd of elephants at a waterhole, a leopard slinking through the grass, or lions calling at night from beyond the campfire glow.

For an exclusive, high-end experience, Kruger’s private reserves are hard to beat. Adjoining areas like Sabi Sand, Timbavati, Thornybush, Makalali, and Balule offer luxurious lodges, expert guides and exceptional sightings — often with just one or two vehicles at a time. Sabi Sand, in particular, is legendary for leopard viewing thanks to its dense terrain and permanent water sources.

Kruger is a year-round destination. Dry winter months (May to October) bring superb game viewing as animals gather around scarce water sources, while summer (November to March) sees the bush come alive with birdlife, greenery and newborn animals. Rain tends to fall in short, dramatic bursts and rarely disrupts game drives.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!

It was a dreamy holiday on the Kenyan Coast - Far and Wild, their efficiency and professionalism allowed us to relax and be the happiest family alive !! We cannot fault them, their care and understanding of what we wanted from a holiday ensured we had the most memorable trip. We will be booking with them again for sure!
