South African safaris for first-timers: 8 tips for the perfect trip

noreply@blogger.com (Dean Cherry) — Fri, 18 Jun 2021 08:36:00 +0000

A lifelong dream for many, a safari in South Africa can take as many forms as the multitude of creatures you encounter in the wild. From a remote escape in a bush camp to a luxurious idyll, the range of experiences can suit all tastes and budgets. And just like a giraffe picking and choosing amongst the canopy of leaves for the perfect snack, you'll be rewarded for taking the time to create a safari that's perfect for you. Here are 8 tips to plan and enjoy the best trip:

1. When to go

For wildlife watching, winter (June to September) is ideal as many trees and shrubs are leafless, which aids spotting. Limited food and water also means that animals are out in the open more often foraging, hunting or grabbing a drink at a waterhole. South Africa's summer (December to February) sees the countryside at its most lush, but animals can be lost in dense shadows. Most common at this time are holiday makers from Europe, who come in herds for the hot temps.

2. Choosing a National Park

South Africa has over 600 parks and reserves. You can find one offering any kind of experience you want, from utter desolation, to verdant savannah rich with life in all forms. You can join guided safaris, set out on your own or find serenity at a campsite far from others. They also cater to travellers on all budgets which makes them both affordable but also often crowded in parts. Most have good roads you can tour in your own rental car. For your first safari, two parks stand out:

Kruger National Park The national park for safaris. Yes parts can get crowded, but given that it's the size of Wales, you can easily escape to a remote corner. Every iconic – and not-so-iconic – African animal is found here. You can stay in the park in everything from isolated campsites to bungalows and cottages in busy compounds, with prices that are some of the best value on the continent. Staying in the surrounding towns like Nelspruit, which have hotels, hostels and resorts for every budget, may be tempting, but they make accessing the early morning wildlife drives (the highlight of the day) difficult; the commute and park-gate traffic can eat into the best part of viewing time.

Where you should go on your first safari in Africa

Hluhluwe-iMfolozi lush scenery with all the expected wildlife. Located in the heart of Zululand, the famous culture of the namesake tribe is prevalent. Beaches along the nearby Elephant Coast are among South Africa's finest, so you can see wildlife and go for a dip. The park is especially noted for its network of hiking trails that include multi-day itineraries and camping deep in the bush.

3. Choosing a private reserve

There is only one real reason why you may not choose a private wildlife reserve: cost. These are not places for people on a tight budget, with prices reaching thousands of dollars per person per day. But for people who want the ultimate safari-experience, a lodge in a private reserve offers:

Close proximity to wildlife
Not only do you avoid long drives before your safari starts but that bump you hear in the night may be an elephant looking in your window. Unlike most of the government camps, lodges here are rarely ever fenced. And when on wildlife drives, guides are usually permitted to leave the reserve's dirt tracks and head directly to sightings in the bush instead of having to watch from afar (as is the case in the national parks). Sabi Sand Game Reserve, which adjoins Kruger National Park, is widely considered to be the best place in Africa for spotting animals.

A day on safari: what you can expect in the wild and in camp

Word class safari guides
Guides working at private reserves are at the top of their game. They read the animal footprints on the dirt each morning like a newspaper and have the best chance of finding you the most incredible wildlife encounters. In the highest-end reserves, guides wear ear-piece radios and communicate with each other to let them know where any key sightings are taking place.

Fewer crowds
Safari jeeps in the park may hold up to 15 guests, while those in private reserves tend to max out at six. At some high-end lodges it might actually just be your party in the vehicle. The fewer the people, the more individual time the guide has to give you; you'll also have more say in how long you stay at individual sightings. Most reserves also set a strict rule of no more than three vehicles at any one sighting, whereas there may be dozens of them in the parks.

Luxury Some of the private reserve lodges are merely comfortable but others, such as Singita Boulders and Sabi Sabi Earth Lodge in Sabi Sand are the retreats of the rich and famous.

Customisation
Since you're staying amidst the wildlife, you can easily create your own menu of activities on the fly, such as guided walks through the bush or tours that focus on particular species. At Samara Private Game Reserve in a verdant valley amidst desert in the Eastern Cape, there are treks to track cheetahs on foot. One way to save on the costs of a private reserve is to spend just a few nights at one at the start of your trip. Take advantage of the talented guides and abundance of wildlife to see a lot of animals quickly and learn a lot about South Africa's wildlife. Then, with your wildlife urges somewhat sated, try a completely different experience in a national park, where you can concentrate more on appreciating the rhythms of life and natural beauty.

4. Use a guide
The first time your guide shows you easily-missed leopard tracks crossing your path, you'll be glad you're not wandering aimlessly on your own. Although guides can keep you safe from marauding lions, their great value is simply in explaining the vast complexities and subtleties of the African bush. Animals carry the colours they do so they will be easy to miss.

Are you ready for a self-drive safari

In private reserves guides are usually part of the price but in a national park you may be tempted to go DIY. You may get lucky (like we did in Kruger one day and have several prides of lions wander past), but as a novice you'll simply miss much. And when there are not big animals about, good guides will bring the bush to life, showing you smaller species, insects and even vegetation that has fascinating properties.

5. Don't be a 'Big Five' cliché

Sure, it’s great – and a reason to go – to see lions, leopards, elephants, Cape buffaloes and rhinos. And you'll see the phrase (which was coined by white hunters in the 1920s to validate their self-proclaimed bravery) on everything from businesses to buses. But there are obviously far more critters out there: zebras, hippos and giraffes are just a few and the list goes on. Read up on the animals you're likely to see and make a list of the less famous ones and try to spot those. You can't appreciate the beguiling ugliness of a warthog until you've seen one; a herd of twitchy impalas reminds you that danger can lurk anywhere amidst the pastoral beauty.

6. Drive or fly

You can fly straight into Kruger National Park, connecting from Cape Town or Johannesburg.. If you're pressed for time this is essential for having plenty of safari time. Most other parks and reserves are equally well served by local flights and you can work out itineraries where resorts or lodges handle all your transfers. But if you can afford the time, driving in South Africa is rewarding. Outside of parks and reserves there are wine regions, spectacular natural beauty and all manner of interesting small towns and cultural attractions. As an example, from Johannesburg you can reach Kruger or Sabi Sand in a full day of driving or you can break the journey at Pilgrims Rest, a charmer of an 1880s gold-rush town that hasn't been over-restored.

7. Bring the right stuff

Dawn safaris during the winter in and around Kruger can be surprisingly cold; layers (even gloves and a warm hat) can be shed as the sun and temp goes up. Binoculars are an obvious choice and don't expect your lodge or guides to provide them. A compact pair will let you see that big cat skulking in the distance. Don't count on wi-fi in the bush, so a good book about the land and life around you is essential.

8. Just relax

Besides shivering in the cold dawn air you should be ready to simply chill out. Guides will be doing their best to hit a checklist of animals but this doesn't always happen. Take time to appreciate the land around you, the beauty of a deserted waterhole reflecting the vast African sky or the sounds of a bird far in the distance. Don't fret about picking off a checklist of critters and certainly don't spend all your time hunting for them through a tiny viewfinder. Get out of your vehicle and simply revel in the quiet. Sometimes the most magical moment on safari is when you see nothing at all.

Brand South Africa takes part in the Eastern Cape SUV Challenge

noreply@blogger.com (Dean Cherry) — Wed, 31 Mar 2021 10:48:00 +0000

The Siyavuya Foundation in partnership with Brand South Africa and other sponsors will deliver the third rendition of the annual SUV Challenge – Eastern Cape Tour this year, running from 3 to 7 March 2021 from the Wild Coast Sun, to Kokstad, Msikaba Bridge, Nkantolo Village in Mbizana Local Municipality, eMqhekezweni Great Place in King Sabata Dalindyebo Local Municipality, East London, and concludes in Baviaanskloof in the Sarah Baartman District.

The initiative was launched in 2018 by the Eastern Cape Premier, Oscar Mabuyane, then MEC for Finance, Economic Development, Environmental Affairs and Tourism and it is a unique and engaging initiative; a social innovation to facilitate coherent engagement between civil society, government and corporate South Africa.

The tour will visit Nkantolo Village, Mbongweni Village (Winnie Mandela’s home village), former statesman Nelson Mandela’s childhood home eMqhekezweni Great Place, where community outreach activations and exhibitions by the partners will take place, underscored by tangible community beneficiation. The SUV Challenge tour will conclude at Baviaanskloof in the Sarah Baartman District where participants will take part in several excursions.

“The SUV Challenge initiative seeks to promote road safety, the Eastern Cape as a preferred tourism destination, social cohesion and development. It mobilises organisations and private sector to partner in a social justice movement,” said SUV Challenge founding member, Siyavuya Mbete of the Siyavuya Foundation.

“As part of assisting with the recovery and minimise the impact the pandemic has had on the tourism industry, the SUV Challenge will serve as an important collaborative platform that will assist in combining the efforts and resources of private and public stakeholders from government, educational institutions, heritage sites and businesses. The tour will show the beautiful aesthetics of the province, provide a historical learning experience and contribute to the conversation that builds the South African nation brand and solidifies South Africa as an ideal tourist destination,’’ said Ms Mpumi Mabuza, General Manager for Stakeholder at Brand South Africa.

The SUV Challenge event sponsors and partners include SANRAL, EC Provincial Government, EC Department of Transport, RTMC, Brand SA, ECPTA, Avis, Nissan, U Bank, MTN, Coca-Cola, MISA, Barloworld, RAW Industries, SANSA, DHET, Microsoft, Services SETA, National Lotteries Commission, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Suzuki, Peugeot, Toyota, National Heritage Council, TETA, Ignition, Umhlobo Wenene FM, Mpumakapa TV, SABC, SA Tourism, Isolezwe, KSD Local Municipality, Mbizana Local Municipality, WSU, UNISA, Fort Hare University, and NMU.

British and Irish Lions tour to go ahead in South Africa as planned

noreply@blogger.com (Dean Cherry) — Wed, 24 Mar 2021 09:41:00 +0000

The British and Irish Lions’ summer tour to South Africa is set to go ahead as originally scheduled.

Contingency plans, including staging the three-match Test series in the UK, were being considered due to ongoing uncertainty caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
But following a succession of meetings, the Lions board has confirmed to SA Rugby its preference to stick with the initial plan of matches being hosted by South Africa during July and August.

Lions chairman Jason Leonard said in a statement: “After reviewing information relating to the various contingency scenarios being considered, I can confirm that the board’s intended position is for the tour to go ahead as scheduled in South Africa in 2021.

“We acknowledge that there is a significant amount of work still to be undertaken to deliver a robust Covid-19 countermeasure plan to ensure a successful, safe and uninterrupted tour.
“SA Rugby will have our full support to help implement this plan.”
The Lions, coached by Warren Gatland, are due to play Test matches in Johannesburg on July 24 and August 7, either side of a game in Cape Town on July 31.

Earlier this month, the Lions board had turned down an offer from Australia to stage the tour.
There is still uncertainty about whether crowds will be permitted to attend matches.

President of SA Rugby Mark Alexander said: “We appreciate the Lions’ faith and share their desire to see a safe and successful tour.

“We have been in regular contact with our government to make that a reality against the backdrop of the pandemic and its predicted progression over the coming months.
“There are serious financial implications for SA Rugby should the event take place without any supporters in attendance, and we cannot ignore that in our considerations.
“But we are determined that the eventual outcome will deliver the best occasion and experience for players, supporters and our commercial partners.”
While there is now a clear path for the tour to proceed, Rugby Football Union chief executive Bill Sweeney made it clear that, if South Africa are unable to host, then it will be cancelled.

A guarantee the country is able to stage it has yet to be given amid fears that a third wave of coronavirus will begin in June, shortly before the Lions touch down for their battle with the world champions.
South Africa have been slow in their vaccine roll out and there are cost implications for the hosts if they are unable to welcome fans into stadiums.
“If you look at the original agreement it says South Africa have an obligation to host the tour in South Africa and the Lions have an obligation to turn up and play,” Sweeney said.
“No one has ever said that can’t be fulfilled. What we’re now saying is, ‘Can we have absolute clarity on that, can you still host the Lions tour?’
“We believe they’re saying they can. That needs to be cleared up in the next couple of days. We’re hoping to get some clarity around that in the course of this week.

Emirates and Airlink have announced an interline agreement.

noreply@blogger.com (Dean Cherry) — Thu, 18 Mar 2021 15:22:00 +0000

Emirates and Airlink have announced an interline agreement, widening the Dubai-based carrier’s reach into southern Africa as countries begin opening their borders for travellers.

Emirates’ agreement with Airlink will provide its customers enhanced connectivity via its gateways Johannesburg and Cape Town to more than 25 domestic destinations in South Africa and more than 20 regional destinations in southern Africa.

The carriers will offer the ease of single-ticket travel and one-stop baggage check-in for customers transferring from Johannesburg and Cape Town to domestic points including Bloemfontein, George, Upington, Nelspruit, Hoedspruit and Port Elizabeth.

Service will also be offered to points like Gaborone, Kasane, Vilanculos, Maun, Victoria Falls, Maputo, Windhoek, Harare, Lusaka, Ndola, Bulawayo and Livingstone, among others.

Tim Clark, president Emirates Airline, commented on the newly formed partnership: “Emirates is pleased to partner with Airlink on a new interline agreement that will help us strengthen our presence and give customers more choice, flexibility and enhanced connections across 45 cities in Southern Africa.

“We are committed to our operations in South Africa, as we continue to look at ways to build our extended network for customers, and help them benefit with diverse travel options.

“The interline agreement that has gone into effect with Airlink is only the start of further collaboration, and we are looking forward to exploring more opportunities to widen the scope of our partnership in the future.”

Emirates resumed its operations into Johannesburg and Cape Town on October 1st, and Durban on October 8th, with enhanced safety measures in place across all of its onboard and on ground touchpoints.

UK’s updated ‘red list’ for travel causes more headaches for South Africans

noreply@blogger.com (Dean Cherry) — Wed, 17 Mar 2021 11:40:00 +0000

The United Kingdom has added Ethiopia, Oman, Somalia and Qatar to its travel ‘red list’, to protect the country against new variants of Covid-19.

While South Africa remains on the original red list of countries, the update will cause additional headaches for travellers who were planning to fly to the UK indirectly through a connecting flight.

A BusinessTech reader indicated that he had to cancel his flight to the UK, which connected through Doha in Qatar, due to the new restrictions.

Visitors who have departed from or transited through these countries in the previous 10 days will be refused entry into England. This includes South Africa.

Only British and Irish citizens or those with residence rights, including long-term visa holders, will be allowed to enter and must stay in a government-approved facility for 10 days.

During their stay, they will be required to take a coronavirus test on day two and day eight.

“The government continues to work with the hospitality sector to ensure it is ready to meet any increased demand – with over 58,000 rooms on standby, which can be made available to book as needed,” the Home Office said.

“British nationals currently in the countries on the red list should make use of the commercial options available if they wish to return to England. Commercial routes that will enable British and Irish nationals and residents to return to England continue to operate.”

Continued restrictions

Last week UAE-based airline Emirates announced that flights from South Africa will remain suspended until 20 March 2021.

This is in line with government directives that restrict the entry of travellers originating from South Africa into the UAE, the airline said in a notice published on its website.

Daily passenger flights to Johannesburg resumed from 11 March as initially planned – however, outbound flights remain suspended.

“Emirates remains committed to serving our customers in South Africa, and we look forward to resuming passenger services when conditions allow,” it said.

“We continue to work closely with all relevant authorities in this regard, and will endeavour to provide our customers with needed support to adjust their travel plans.”

Virgin Atlantic also extended its ban on flights to and from South Africa and may not resume flights until April. British Airways announced the suspension of all South Africa flights until 16 April.

A number of countries have also indicated that travellers from South Africa will be barred from entering – a sign that the country could be facing reputational damage as a result of the 501Y.V2 variant of Covid-19, which has been referred to as the “South African variant” abroad.

About South Africa

noreply@blogger.com (Dean Cherry) — Tue, 09 Mar 2021 15:00:00 +0000

South Africa, the country on the southern tip of the world’s second-largest continent, offers a rich menu for the American traveler. It was the home of the first permanent European settlement in Africa when the Dutch settled Cape Town in 1653 as a way station for sailing vessels en route from Europe to the Far East. The establishment of Cape Town was part of the explosion in exploration of the 1500s and the wave of expansion of world trade it set off. And it marked the beginning of the mad rush of European empires to establish colonies in Africa. Cape Town was Europe’s first foot in Africa, and was two centuries ahead of the scramble for Africa in the late 19^th and early 20^th centuries, when most of Africa’s territory fell under the dominion of European colonial powers.

The multicultural mixing of South Africa has been going on now for nearly four centuries, and it is a large part of what makes the country so exciting as a tourist destination. American tourists have traditionally seen Africa as a safari destination. But its European influences date back nearly as far as they do in North America. All of the waves of world history that affected the U.S. since the 1600s have also affected South Africa. But South Africa has responded to them and adapted to them in its own ways.

What awaits for Americans is a country as rich in multicultural blending as their own, but with very different flavors and accents. South Africa’s food, wine, city life, music, art, national parks, wildlife, indigenous people and immigrant populations all have their own unique richness to impart to visiting tourists, who all congregate there today as tourists in the country Nelson Mandela dubbed “The Rainbow Nation.”

South Africa’s discoveries of diamonds and gold made it the richest country in Africa, which led to the building of a first world infrastructure. But the mid-20^th century efforts of the white minority population to prevent the inevitable advancement of native people led to policies that were so extreme that it alienated South Africa from the world. When the stalemate between the white minority and the black majority broke and the beloved Nelson Mandela became its first democratically elected president, the gates opened South Africa to the world. What had been behind the curtain was suddenly revealed: the mountains, the beaches, the winelands, the cosmopolitan cities, the nature reserves and the wildlife. And the world loved it and came rushing in.

South Africa is a modern, industrialized country, though its wilderness reserves are largely protected from industrial influences. Its main language is English, along with Afrikaans, a derivative of Dutch, and many native African languages. Driving is on the left, as in Britain. The legacy of the British control is strong, but there are also strong influences of nearly every other nationality, as a result of people flooded in from around the world during the gold rush days. The cuisine is a rich blend, with elements brought in as slaves in the 1600s and the natives, who make up a large component of the country’s population.

The 2010 FIFA World Cup, the most popular event in the world, opened the lens on South Africa much wider for first World Cup ever in Africa. It undoubtedly raised the profile of South Africa to those who have not yet caught on.

HOW TO BE A LEKKER GUEST IN SOUTH AFRICA

noreply@blogger.com (Dean Cherry) — Tue, 09 Mar 2021 08:22:00 +0000

Guests can be totally lekker but then there are some that could do with a little improvement. I think we all know this, possibly because we’ve been a bit rubbish ourselves sometimes … From demanding refunds for lions roaring too loudly near their rooms, to rocking up with 3 children they didn’t mention when booking (“but they can just sleep in our beds?”), guests can be the actual worst. Can we get a rating system like Uber drivers have about their passengers already? The Lekker Rating System?!
Growing up in the hospitality industry, I’ve seen my fair share of visitors to our gorgeous country, and locals, who could do with a good blast from a high-powered hose, so it’s been on my mind to share a few ideas about how we could rank higher on The Lekker Rating System.

Good manners. They go such a long way. I’ve always found that being as sweet as melktert at the bank or at Telkom gets me so much further! The same applies to everyone in the hospitality industry. Be kind to them. They’re working over Christmas for you.South Africa is not Europe or America. It will never be Europe or America. I mean, we sometimes don’t even have electricity! Just dunk an Ouma rusk and settle into it. Most people in hospitality in this country wake up every day wondering what madness they’ll encounter, from water rationing – through to petrol trucks that didn’t make it to their town that week. South Africans encounter hurdles daily that foreigners from first world countries probably can’t fathom, which I think plays a huge role in what makes us such unique people.

South Africa welcomes millions of tourists a year. Arrive with an open heart, good manners and a smile and just like anything else in life, the country will open up for you like it’s in bloom. You will never forget your time in our crazy, loud, colourful and wild country.Thoroughly research your trip: the areas you’re staying in; the weather; what to expect; what to pack; whether it’s a malaria area or not and what precautions to take if it is; how far you’ll be from civilization; whether they cater for food allergies, and everything else in between. Bring along your own sunscreen, basic travel medication, mosquito repellant, mobile phone chargers, sun hats, plugs, warm clothing, comfortable shoes and gluten-free bread (if you’re so inclined) and anything else that your research reveals that you’ll need, and you should be good for your trip to South Africa. There are many talented travel bloggers in South Africa who share tons of tips about every region on the must-visit list for our country, including on the blog section of this website

Foreigners, please don’t haggle with the locals out in the sticks. That piece of fabric, hand-carved curio, beaded love letter or basket you’re buying is supporting families, so do the right thing and pay what they’re asking. Your currency is worth up to 20 times ours, after all.

Nature can be loud, bold and plentiful, that’s why you’re here. Enjoy the wild ocean, the wildlife, noisy insects and singing birds and know that sometimes, they’ll make their way into your accommodation. It’s about as much the hotel’s fault as rainy weather…

On that subject; rain, wind, storms, sun – we’ve got it in spades. Make friends with the weather here. Lord knows you’ll need to, especially in Cape Town, hence why it was once named, The Cape of Storms’ by Portuguese explorer Bartholomew Dias. It would be completely un-lekker to write a bad review of your accommodation based on weather you didn’t like when we promise you that not even a South African with powerful juju can control it.

Honour your restaurant reservations, without exception. Not showing up for a booking for 6 is an earth-

shattering event to a small restaurant. South Africans tip their servers between 10 – 20% of their bill and

we encourage you to do the same in order to rank high on The Lekker Rating System.

I read a wonderful sign in a self-catering cottage years ago that said something along the lines of, “Clean up after yourself. These are not colonial times” and I’ve never forgotten it. Another human being will be cleaning up after your mess once you’ve checked out, so spare some thought about what you can do to make their life a little better that day. Do the dishes and be lekker.

South Africa is at the forefront of animal conservation and is streets ahead of most countries in the world in their policies and care of wild animals. In fact, most legitimate destinations with animals on their property have to adhere to a laundry list of rules that are so strict that barely an ostrich feather is allowed to be there without written permission.

The chances are that the experts and conservationists at that game reserve or animal conservation facility know what they’re doing. (This definitely does not apply to lion-cub-petting, which is something you should never, ever do!) If you’re allowed to ride elephants, hold cubs or touch any wild animals, that place is not lekker and you shouldn’t support it.

KLM will be flying passengers out of South Africa – but not South Africans

noreply@blogger.com (Dean Cherry) — Mon, 08 Mar 2021 14:41:00 +0000

From Tuesday, flights to Amsterdam – daily from OR Tambo and three times a week from Cape Town – will not be carrying ordinary ordinary South Africans.
Dutch airline KLM will be accepting only Dutch citizens, EU residents, and a handful of special classes of professional travellers.
But any flights are good flights right now, the travel industry says.
For more stories go to www.BusinessInsider.co.za.

Dutch flag carrier KLM is reinstating a heavy schedule of passenger flights to and from South Africa – but ordinary South Africans won't be allowed on the outbound planes.

From Tuesday, 23 February, it will only accept Dutch nationals and residents of the European Union and Schengen States on flights from South Africa, the airline said.

That also holds for passengers who want to transit through Amsterdam, but who do not intend to actually leave the airport.

There are just a handful of special exceptions that would apply to South African citizens: airline crew, seafarers, and medical staff are not subject to the ban.

Flights in the other direction, leaving from Amsterdam, are not affected.

The KLM schedule has daily flights from Johannesburg's OR Tambo, leaving just before midnight every day, and flights from Cape Town International slightly earlier on Mondays, Fridays, and Sundays.

For those who are eligible to travel, the Netherland's requirement for not one but two negative coronavirus tests is still in place: a rapid antigen test one hour before entering the boarding zone, plus the standard PCR test no more than 72 hours before departure.

All travellers must also still self-isolate for 10 days after their arrival in the Netherlands, or comply with the rules of their final destination if they are just passing through Amsterdam.

The Netherlands imposed tough travel restrictions again in January, after a December that saw it very briefly ban South Africans entirely for fear of the new variant of the coronavirus that now dominates in SA.

Some in South Africa's embattled travel industry have cautiously welcomed the KLM news, saying any inbound flight to South Africa is a positive.

A WOW sighting of your week. Turn sound on for the full experience

A herd of elephants in the Kruger National Park were not at all impressed with the presence of a pack of wild dogs when the two species met face to face. As you can see by the video captured by guide Amanda the elephants instantly went into protective mother mode, surrounding their young to shield them from the potential threat while at the same time voicing their displeasure.

Treat yourself and your loved ones to a Kruger National Park Safari Trip

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 18 Feb 2021 10:25:00 +0000

A place of ancient history, curious intrigued and more wildlife than you could see in a day, the Kruger National Park is more than just a safari destination, it is an iconic part of South Africa’s heritage. Regarded as the world’s finest wildlife parks, the Kruger National Park boasts an impressive collection of a wide variety of animal species. Lion, giraffe, zebra, hippo, cheetah, rhino, elephant, the list of animals known to roam all corners of the park is nearly endless. Almost 150 species can be spotted, along with well over 500 species of birds and all kinds of flora, making the Kruger a truly diverse, ecological wonder.

Covering an area of almost 19 485 square feet of granite hills, mountain ranges, wide savannah grasslands and lush dense forests, the Kruger is a feat of immense planning, a fierce dedication to conservation and almost 100 years of hard work. With such a huge landscape to cover, it is often far easier to embark on a safari in the company of an experienced guide. You might be interested in our luxury Kruger National Park safaris or perhaps the budget Kruger Park safari.

A little about Nhongo Safaris

Nhongo Safaris has been offering unforgettable guided Kruger Park safari for many years and we’ve been privileged to see all that the park has to offer.

Having launched our safari company in 1999, we’ve watched as the dynamic of the park has changed. And as the park has changed, and the expectations of guests have become a little more intricate, we’ve adjusted the way in which we create our safari packages.

We are not just a passionate Kruger safari company. We are also planning experts! A Kruger Park safari is best experienced as a full package. That means comfortable accommodation, delicious meals and any activities which might pique your interest are added to the packages we’ve created. Our safaris are all inclusive, which helps to ensure that you get the most out of your time in Africa. A Kruger National Park safari is a once in a lifetime adventure so you’ll want to make the most of your opportunity.

Throughout the duration of your stay with us, you will be treated to nothing but the best, ensuring that your stay is as comfortable as it is memorable. All tours are carried out by a FGASA and DEAT registered guide, each friendly and professional. We’ll also provide transport throughout your stay as well as airport transfers to and from OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg. The drive down to the Kruger is in itself a journey. Guests will drive through some of the most scenic and most beautiful landscapes, through ever changing scenery before arriving at their accommodation.

The Kruger has an incredible network of roads which criss-cross the park. Some roads are tarred while others are dirt and can be a little difficult to navigate without some experience. Our guides know all of the roads like the back of their hands. We know which roads are best for spotting lions, and which are best for catching sight of curious leopards. We also know how best to avoid the avid crowds who ever so often flood the park.

Safari Guide Insider Tips

Each day hundreds of guests will enter the Kruger Park, and most of them will be entering with a safari company. Safari guides are in the unique position of having some of the deepest insight into the Kruger National Park wildlife and they generally know the very best places to spot the animals. Many guides are seasoned safari experts who’ve been in the industry from a young age. The park has a special hold on guides, as few leave the park and will continue to share their passion for nature with every new guest and with the same fervour they experienced during their early years.

With all of their insight and their experience, tips from guides are invaluable for ensuring that the safari is a success. Not only are their tips helpful for spotting wildlife, but it can also be used to guarantee that the entire experience is a positive one.

The Kruger Park can change in an instant. A quiet savannah setting without a thing in sight can quickly turn into an energy-charged predator-prey chase down. Although the animals and their habitats have remained unchanged since pretty much the dawn of time, the animals are always on the move, so scenes in the park change from one moment to the next, making every sighting a unique one.

Every year we guide hundreds of excited travellers into the park, and often they have high expectations about what they will see. We always like guests to keep in mind that the wildlife doesn’t have a schedule for appearances. And if all sightings were an immediate guarantee, it would take some of the magic out of the safari! When it comes to expectations, a helpful tip would be to throw the checklist out of the window and enjoy everything you see. This tip is especially important when it comes to the Big 5. So many guests place a lot of emphasis on seeing the animals grouped together by hunters over 100 years ago. And while we certainly agree that seeing these animals does cause a lot of excitement, at the end of the day, any animal sighting is special.

The group dynamic within the vehicle is also something to keep in mind. Generally, unless you’ve booked a private Kruger National Park safari, you’ll be sharing the vehicle with at least 10 other guests, depending on the size of the safari transporter. Some groups are incredibly keen to see a kill while others might be quite upset by the sight. Some safari groups are also a lot less excitable than others. The energy of the vehicle can give the guides a good indication about what it is that the group is hoping to experience, so don’t be shy in your enthusiasm. Chat with your guide and listen to what they have to share as often their knowledge is exceptionally interesting. You should also not be shy to ask questions. A Kruger Park safari is as much a learning experience as it is an entertaining journey.

The Nhongo Safari Experience

We offer our guests a wide variety of Kruger safari holiday packages while we also offer the option of indulging in a speciality holiday experience. Our safari packages include transfers to and from the Kruger National Park (from Johannesburg), accommodation in some of the finest lodges the Kruger area has to offer, delicious meals (excluding lunch), and multiple safaris.

We make the safari experience as pleasurable and as memorable as possible, giving our guests that once in a lifetime trip that they will never forget. With this in mind, we try to give our guests a personalised safari, as much as a group experience will allow.

Nhongo’s Kruger safari holiday packages are split up into 4 categories: Budget Kruger Safaris, Tented Kruger Safaris, Standard Kruger Safaris and the Luxury Kruger Safaris.

Budget Kruger National Park Safaris

The costs are slashed but the experience is simply priceless!

While these might be the more affordable option, these experiences are anything but cheap! For those travelling on a limited budget, this is the ultimate retreat. Guests are treated to an incredible trip, and once in the park, they might be lucky enough to see wildlife that even those who choose the luxury option might miss out on. The Budget Safaris differ from the others in that the accommodation is generally more rustic. Other than that, guests can look forward to a uniquely exciting trip into the park.

Currently, we have 2, 3, 4 and 5 day budget safaris are available. Tours start from as little as R2000.

Tented Kruger Safaris

The ultimate Kruger Park trip!

With the wildlife seemingly brushing up against the tent in the evening, at least when our imaginations run away with us, the tented safari is a real favourite. There is no better way to get up close to nature than when sleeping in a tent. The sounds of Africa sneak through the canvas, and it can feel as the earth is calling to you. Enough with the day dreaming! You can book this incredible tented safari through our website and experience Africa as its meant to be experienced.

Currently, we have 3 day, 7 day, 3 night/4 day, and 2 night/3 day tented safaris available in the Kruger National Park.

Standard Kruger National Park Safaris

These classic tours of the Kruger National Park are a bushveld adventure!

The Standard Kruger National Park safaris are the perfect mix of budget and luxury, the ideal middle ground so to speak. They are by far one of our more popular selection of safaris and we’ve created a wide range of classic Kruger Park safari for our guests to choose from. The number of days spent in the park varies with each package, but the overall experience once in the Kruger is a real 5 star one. Guests can look forward to maximum time spent in the Kruger, with quiet evenings filled with great food, relaxing drinks and wonderful company.

Currently, we have 2 day, 3 day, 4 day, 5 day, 6 day and 7 day Standard Kruger safaris. We also have an exciting 9 day southern Kruger safari package, a Panorama Route package designed to take guests on a trip to see some of the most beautiful landscapes, waterfalls, villages and rock formations, and an action packed adventure package for the thrill seekers.

Luxury Kruger National Park Safaris

Everyone deserves to treat themselves while on holiday!

Luxury Kruger National Park safaris are designed just for those who are looking to indulge themselves in the ultimate high-end retreat from the world. Luxury safaris are characterised by exquisite, and exceptionally quiet, private accommodation in some of the most beautiful locations in and around the Kruger, along with decadent meals. Luxury safaris also generally mean private safaris, unlike the other packages which generally offer group experiences.

Currently, we have the 3 day Southern Kruger safari, the 3 night and 4 day ultimate romantic getaway, the incredible 4 day Kruger Shalati Train Experience and the intrepid 6 day Kruger Combo.

The Authentic Way to See Africa

The Kruger National Park has for the longest time been considered the premier wildlife destination in Southern Africa. Not only is it home to myriad of unique animal, bird and plant species, but it is also a place with the most fascinating history. Thousands of guests explore the park each year hoping to see the wildlife that has made the park famous, and they have two ways to experience the park.

The first way is by embarking on a self-drive Kruger Park safari while the second way is to sign up for a guided tour. Many consider the guided Kruger Park safari to be the more authentic way, as it allows guests to board a safari vehicle, sit back and spend their time on the lookout for the wildlife they have come to see. These tours are the best option for a number of reasons: they allow guests to do minimal planning and booking, as often the guided tour is part of a full Kruger Park holiday package, guests won’t need to worry about getting lost in the park as the guides know the way, and guests can enjoy the company of a knowledgeable guide who can share all sorts of information about the park along with stories of their own park encounters.

Nhongo Safaris has spent years guiding guests from all over the world on unforgettable Kruger Park tours. Our safaris offer full days in the park along with some of the best accommodation in a part of the world that is renowned for its immense hospitality.

Visiting the Kruger is one trip that shouldn’t be left waiting on a bucket list, instead, it is a journey that everyone with a love, or curiosity, for Africa should indulge in. To make things easier for you, our website has everything you need when planning your Kruger National Park safari. Simply select the tour you wish to embark on and hit the button to make the booking. We’ll do the rest.

The Death Of Hukumuri

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 12:12:00 +0000

Hukumuri, a Lowveld leopard, is dead. He died on 16 January 2021 – shot by the local authorities in a rural village after he killed livestock and a dog. These are indisputable facts, and an ongoing investigation may reveal more detail. Huk, as some know him, was a favourite amongst tourists to the northern Sabi Sands Game Reserve and amongst online live safari followers. He was not in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve at the time of his death, and the game reserve management had no hand in his death.

We have, as far as possible, in the short time available, tried to establish exactly what the facts surrounding Hukumuri’s death are. We have spoken to park officials, and yesterday Jamie visited Mr Nabot Mathonsi, the village headman, and the homestead of Romina Mathonsi who lost valuable livestock – almost her entire life’s savings. Here then are our findings, followed by our personal thoughts about a leopard we knew and loved.
