Best time to travel
The best time to visit Kruger National Park is from May to October, when the dry season makes wildlife sightings easier. During these months, the vegetation is sparse and many animals gather around the reMayning water sources, making wildlife viewing especially rewarding. Temperatures are pleasantly warm during the day, while nights can be rather cool. Clear skies and dry air create perfect conditions for exploring the park’s remarkable wildlife and expansive landscapes.
Travel begins with a flight of around 10 hours from Germany to Johannesburg. Then a domestic flight to Hoedspruit, followed by a private transfer to Thornybush Game Reserve.
Kruger National Park
Kruger National Park, South Africa’s largest nature and wildlife reserve, impresses with its extraordinary biodiversity and sweeping landscapes. The park is home to 147 mammal species, as well as more than 500 bird species, 114 reptiles, 49 fish and 34 amphibians.
This iconic park offers families an ideal blend of adventure, nature and relaxation. Game drives in open safari vehicles allow for thrilling encounters with the Big Five – lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards and rhino – along with many other wild animals. Guided bush walks also offer fascinating insight into the park’s flora and fauna, allowing visitors to experience the natural world at close quarters. Especially popular is the Juneor Ranger programme, which introduces children to wildlife and conservation in an engaging, playful way. After an exhilarating day, families can unwind in comfortable lodges or camps, savour a traditional braai (barbecue) and gaze up at the African night sky.
