While the national park offers accommodation in well-equipped government rest camps that are perfect for self-drive safaris and budget package tours, the private reserves offer a more luxurious experience. Several private concessions located within Kruger also function as private game reserves. They contain small, exclusive safari lodges offering allinclusive packages. Big Five viewing is superb throughout Greater Kruger, and the private reserves and concessions are unmatched when it comes to regular close-up sightings of the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, rhinoceros). In proximity to Kruger lies the resurgent country of Mozambique, which borders the Indian Ocean and stretches up the eastern flank of Africa. Whilst its mainland still remains reasonably off the tourist trail, the spectacular islands of the Bazuruto Archipelago have become some of the most enticing beach destinations in the Indian Ocean with a number of luxury resorts that make a perfect combination for a relaxing finish to a safari in South Africa with plenty of opportunities to swim in the warm turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, sunbathe on deserted golden beaches and go snorkelling, scuba diving or deep sea fishing in this marine-rich paradise. The good news is that there is a regular and direct air service from Kruger Mpumalanga Airport (Nelspruit) to Vilanculos, the mainland gateway to the Bazaruto Archipelago, a flight journey of just 1 hour and 10 minutes! eater Kruger, comprising the Kruger National Park in the north-west corner of South Africa together with a cluster of bordering private reserves, ranks among Africa’s best wildlife-viewing destinations. Explore some of this vast game sanctuary that is the size of Wales, offering magnificent game viewing opportunities and the highest concentration of lion in the whole of Africa. 47 Kruger NP Johannesburg Nelspruit Cape Town Port Elizabeth Durban Maputo Vilanculos G
