The Kruger National Park

More about the Kruger Park itself

The Kruger Park is a prime safari destination

Kruger National Park is South Africa’s largest and best-known wildlife reserve, covering nearly 20,000 square kilometers of diverse terrain. From open savannahs to dense riverine forests, it’s home to an incredible variety of animals—including the Big Five—and over 500 bird species. With its well-maintained infrastructure and year-round accessibility, it’s a top destination for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers.

A private safari with Safari Reinhardt offers a personal and flexible way to experience Kruger. Whether you’re hoping to track wildlife at your own pace, avoid the crowds, or simply enjoy the peace of the bush, we tailor each journey to match your travel style and interests.

Kruger is A World-Renowned Wildlife Haven

Kruger National Park is known for its remarkable biodiversity. It’s home to nearly 150 species of mammals, more than 500 bird species, and a wide variety of reptiles, amphibians, and plant life. While the Big Five—lion, elephant, leopard, rhino, and buffalo—draw much of the attention, Kruger offers so much more. Giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, and endangered wild dogs are just some of the other animals you might encounter on a game drive.

The Kruger Park is accessible, yet wild

Kruger National Park is located in northeastern South Africa and is surprisingly easy to reach, with good road connections and nearby airports in Johannesburg, Nelspruit, and Hoedspruit. Its accessibility makes it a practical choice for both local and international travelers. Yet, despite being well-connected, the park itself remains wild and largely untouched, offering a real sense of space and freedom.

Safari Reinhardt is based in Hoedspruit, a small town right in the heart of the Greater Kruger region. With its own airport and close proximity to several park gates, it’s an ideal starting point for a private safari adventure.

Kruger for every type of traveler

Whether it’s your first time on safari or you’ve been to the bush before, Kruger National Park offers something for every type of traveler. You can explore on your own with a self-drive safari or book a guided safari in Kruger. For those wanting a more personal and flexible approach, a private safari with Safari Reinhardt is a great way to experience Kruger—adapted to your pace, interests, and comfort.

Best Time to Visit Kruger Park for a Safari

The best time to visit Kruger Park depends on what you’re hoping to see. The dry season, from May to September, is perfect for wildlife viewing—animals gather around waterholes, and the sparse vegetation makes it easier to spot them. On the other hand, the wet season (November to April) transforms the landscape into a lush green paradise. It’s a great time to see newborn animals and enjoy some of the region’s best birdwatching.

Whatever season you choose, a private safari with Safari Reinhardt ensures your time in Kruger is well spent—with expert guidance and a flexible itinerary tailored
