5 Day Budget Tented Camp – Kruger Safari Tour
Johannesburg
Affordable Kruger camping safari adventure
Head to Balule Private Game Reserve, where you’ll experience the excitement of your first Big 5 game drive, spotting nocturnal animals. End off the day with a memorable “braai” (barbecue) in the African bushveld.
Get ready for an exciting 4-hour bush walk where you experience the thrill of tracking prints guided by an armed ranger. Then, hop aboard our 4×4 safari vehicles for an afternoon game drive in search of the iconic Big 5.
Enjoy 2 full-day safaris heading into the Kruger National Park, exploring diverse landscapes. Guided by wildlife experts, prepare to encounter herds of elephants, dazzles of zebras, and pods of hippos. Keep a keen eye out for giraffes, rhinos, and big cats like lions, cheetahs, and leopards!
Conclude your safari adventure with another morning game walk led by an armed ranger.
As we journey back to Johannesburg, we’ll stop at Blyde River Canyon to marvel at the stunning Three Rondawels.
