We left our cute little cottage behind and headed into Kruger National Park on our own Safari adventure.
Here is our story ... told from a rented VW Polo and a retro orange 2 man tent!
Over the course of 4 nights we stayed at 4 different camps - Bergendal, Skukuza, Lower Sabie and Satara. Between the camps there are tarmac roads with side roads to explore which are dirt/gravel/potholed! Every road held something special to see. Here is the list of the wildlife we saw over the course of 5 days ....
All of Africa's famous 'Big 5': lion, buffalo, elephant, rhino and leopard!
Plus:
Giraffe
Zebra
Hippopotamus
Vervet monkey
Baboon
Mongoose
Impala
Great Kudo
Eagle
Warthog
Jackal
Eland
Crocodile
Spotted Hyaena
African civit cat
Tortoise and turtle
Lizard
Wildebeest
Lots and lots of colourful birds including storks, various eagles, a bataleuer, vultures, hornbills, guinea fowl
What an amazing few days! It has been so hot, with the car windows open it has felt like a hairdryer in your face. A totally different climate to Cape Town. The temperature rose as high as 42 degrees during the midday sun!
What an incredible experience we have had. Please check out our photos for a little inspiration...
