Kruger Park tours and safaris this Festive Season
Christmas Season in the Kruger National Park
So, you’re thinking about joining some Kruger National Park tours this festive season? Apart from spending time deep within the raw African bushveld, there are a few Kruger Park activities you and the family can enjoy to welcome the new year in African style! This article looks at four festive season happenings to enjoy in the Kruger National Park during the 2021 festive season…
Christmas Eve Sleep-Out
There are Kruger Park camps that offer wilderness sleep-outs. You will be escorted to remote raised wooden platforms for a night spent under the stars. Don’t worry, your guides will be armed at all times – and might even cook your dinner over an open fire! Why not spend Christmas Eve on one of these life-changing Kruger Park sleepouts?
Christmas Day Picnic
The coolest way to spend Christmas Day in the Kruger National Park? With a family picnic! Speak to your safari guides or accommodation management about planning a festive picnic in the heart of the African bush. There are many quiet, safe viewing points throughout the Kruger Park where you’ll be able to celebrate Christmas in the warm summer sun!
Boxing Day Safari Walk
Certain Kruger Park camps offer the option to go on walking safaris or driven safaris. Since most people prefer the latter, why not celebrate Boxing Day 2020 with an exhilarating safari walk? You’ll be accompanied by armed Kruger Park guides, who will take you through the bushy wilderness sharing interesting information about African wildlife along the way.
Old Year’s Eve Game Watching
Unless you want every predator in the Kruger Park bushveld to descent upon your campsite, we’d recommend keeping loud music to a minimum on Old Year’s Eve. For this reason, why not keep things totally quiet and allow the wildlife to migrate naturally around your campsite. This way you get to spend Old Year’s Eve looking at animals of all variety as they go about their nocturnal business.
New Year’s Day Drive
Don’t get us wrong – we’re not suggesting you go for any old drive on New Year’s Day! On the contrary – why not celebrate the dawning of a new year, full of opportunity and potential, with a captivating private New Year’s Day safari drive? You might need to arrange this with your camp in advance, so get in early to avoid disappointment!
