How we plan our Safari Routes
Every day we plan our routes the night before using that days intelligence to best inform our decisions. We use local knowledge and that basic principle of staying close to water and prime grazing areas to go in search of game. Our routes are also based on the historical value of the region or area so that we can also bring you closer to understanding what has happened and who has been here in the 150 years. Our morning drives are usually around 4 hours and afternoon drives around 3 hours. Dependant on our overnight camp accommodation we may also journey for full days which will mean being on the open vehicle for more than 10 hours but with food and comfort break stops every 3 hours.
Meet Andrew, your Private Guide

His knowledge of the Park has been gathered from 2 generations before him, his own personal experiences and nearly 150 reference guides on Kruger and its wildlife.

What our guests say :
" 4 Day Kruger Safari - I recently spent 4 days in Kruger with Andy W, as a solo traveller, and can honestly say the whole experience was fantastic. Andy has passion and an intimate knowledge of the local ecology, making our tour much more than just sightseeing. It was a learning experience as well. He has an eye for spotting game others will miss enabling you to see things without the crowds at times, and maximising the personalised experience. In the limited time I had in the park he was able to tailor our trip to maximise viewing opportunities whilst maintaining a flexible approach based on my preferences. "
