Rules and regulations of the Kruger National Park prevent guests from alighting from the vehicle except at specially designated places. This does not mean you will have to endure hours sitting on end in the safari vehicle. We plan our routes as to afford our guests the maximum opportunity to often get out and stretch their legs at such specially designated areas. Here is a list and brief description of these places.
Any of the entrance gates such as Orpen Gate and Phalaborwa Gate.
Any of the main rest camps such as Satara, Olifants and Letaba Rest camps.
Bird Hides
At some point whilst driving in the Kruger Park the guide will stop at bird hide, in the area in which we generally operate there are three such bird hides. Bird hides overlook a dam or river course and often hippopotamus, crocodiles, waterbuck and a host of birdlife can be seen from the safety of the bird hide.
Picnic Spots
Dotted throughout the park are official picnic spots, these picnic spots have the advantage of providing restroom facilities as well. Tables, chairs and a shaded area complete the picture.
Get out points
Often offering spectacular panoramic views over the bush. On numerous occasions we have even spotted lions from these Get Out Points.
High water bridges
The bridges over the Olifants and Letaba rivers allows us to disembark and view the river below. The Riverine Forest area along the Olifants River is especially beautiful and often hippopotamus, crocodiles, impala and even elephants can be seen.
