South Africa's largest and most iconic wilderness area, home to the Big 5 and unmatched scenery
An African wildlife experience to rival the best on the continent, the Kruger National Park is the ultimate safari destination. The largest game reserve in South Africa, the Kruger spans a total area of nearly 2 million ha. Together with Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe and Limpopo National Park in Mozambique, the Kruger also forms part of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park, a peace park that allows for the free movement of animals across national borders. The park is named after the then president of the Transvaal Republic, Paul Kruger, who proclaimed it in 1898. Today, the park is home to 147 large animal species, 114 reptile species, and over 500 species of birds.
