OUR SAFARIS
JOIN US ON A UNFORGETTABLE SAFARI EXPERIENCE
Kruger Gone Wild specializes in tailor made safari experiences for our guests. All of our Game Drives take place in our 10 seat Open Game Vehicle. We aim to provide unique nature and photographic experiences each time we traverse into the Kruger National Park. Indicated below are our various Safari Packages/Tour Options. Kerry and Josh are specialized animal and avian behaviourists and their combined 30 years of experience in the park often proves invaluable. This experience comes in handy when looking for certain animals and bird species. Of course, with individual leopards too. Our guests will be guided by either Kerry, Josh or both on their safaris.
All our private and custom safari’s will operate from 15min before gate opening until 15 minutes after gate closing unless otherwise specified by our client. This is unique and we believe that in order to maximize our guests’ opportunities of seeing the Big 5 and other specials, we need to utilize both the early morning’s and late afternoons as these are the optimal viewing times for predators.
HALF & FULL DAY SAFARIS
Half Day Drive: This drive is a minimum 6 hours long and includes an optional 30 minutes break. We will provide Coffee, Tea, Biscuits and Rusks for our guests.
All Full Day Safari’s will enjoy a minimum of 11.5 hours within the confines of The Kruger National Park and depending on season this could be up to 13.5 hours. These drives will start 15 minutes prior to gate opening and finish 15 minutes after gate closing. Full day drives will include a 1 hour breakfast stop in the morning.
We will also ensure that bathroom breaks are available to our guests where possible/required. We will provide coffee, tea, biscuits and rusks.
Our Half Day and Full Day Safari’s will focus on the Southern Section of the Prestigious Kruger National Park which is one of the most densely populated areas for Big Cats anywhere in the world.
PRIVATE SAFARIS
Our Private Full Day Safaris cater to Individual’s, couples or groups who would like a unique personal experience in the Kruger National Park. All Private Safari’s will enjoy a minimum of 11.5 hours within the confines of the Kruger National Park and depending on season this could be up to 13.5 hours. Our private game drives will start 15 minutes prior to gate opening and will end 15 minutes after gate closing time.
This is certainly one of our favourite options as we feel as guides that we get to spend intimate bush moments with smaller groups and can take as much time as we need at each sighting opportunity. There is nothing quite as rewarding as waiting for a leopard to mount a tree to resume feeding on its carcass or waiting for a cheetah to commence its hunt after it has stalked its prey.
As Wildlife photographers ourselves, we can appreciate the needs of our guests when wanting to attain that perfect shot which resonates with that special moment.
OVERNIGHT CUSTOM PRIVATE SAFARIS
Immerse yourself in this almost 2 million hectares of unparalleled diversity and join us on a tailor made safari through our beautiful Kruger National Park.
Our overnight packages are catered and quoted to individual or group requirements. Both in terms of length of stay and the areas of the park which fulfil outlined dreams. If one was wanting a trip specialized in seeing lions, we would tailor the trip accordingly and the same for leopards, birding specials and scenery. These would all differ slightly but of course we are happy to tailor a custom trip which fulfils all aspects of Fauna and Flaura.
Wake up to the sounds of the dawn chorus and unrivalled sunrises. Relax around the fire in the evening while the sounds of the African Bush come to life. Your dream safari into the Kruger is waiting for you and we are ready to take you on your journey. Contact us directly to build your dream Kruger National Park Safari.
BIRDING SAFARIS
Kruger Gone Wild’s Birding Safaris are all custom made for individuals, couples or groups. For Josh especially, these trips are truly fantastic. He will be the lead guide on any birding safari.
When requesting a birding safari, we will cater to your skill levels and any specials which you are wanting to try and see within the reserve. Of course, with the Kruger National Park being 2 million hectares, certain species are found in different areas and habitats.
Therefore certain species won’t be attainable on a half day or full day safari. However, we are certainly happy to discuss any special requests in person so that we can customize and tailor a safari according to your needs.
