Experience the thrill of encountering the Big 5 on a family safari in Kruger Park.

Just a short drive from Johannesburg, the Kruger National Park stands as one of South Africa’s premier travel destinations: a vast expanse of untamed nature teeming with wildlife – and the exciting news is that the park is ideal for family safari adventures.

The Kruger Park was designed for explorers, and that spirit continues to thrive today. It’s a straightforward self-drive destination, with direct flights available from Johannesburg, Cape Town, and even the Mozambican coast. Upon arrival, you’ll uncover the reasons behind this Wales-sized reserve’s remarkable global reputation.

A well-connected network of roads and a variety of lodges are spread across the expansive 22,000 square kilometres of the park, showcasing an unparalleled diversity of wildlife. The Big 5 roam freely, birdwatching opportunities are extraordinary, and the excitement of spotting game is continuous – there’s always something to discover on our Kruger Park Family Holidays!

The design of many Kruger safari lodges enhances the experience, allowing families to immerse themselves in the stunning beauty and thrill of Africa together. We wholeheartedly suggest the lodges located in the private reserves along the western edge of Kruger Park – the wildlife experiences are some of the finest in Africa, and you’ll relish the exclusivity, true luxury, and knowledgeable guiding.

With dedicated game drive vehicles, guided nature walks, child-minders, and special activity programs, these lodges provide an abundance of opportunities to keep the kids safe, happy, and engaged while you immerse yourself in the enjoyment of a first-class family holiday in Kruger Park.
