Kruger National Park & Victoria Falls

DESCRIPTION

The Kruger National Park is South Africa's treasure and rightly so. Thousands of animals roam this almost 2 million hectares of land with big game such as lion, elephant, buffalo and rhino attracting visitors from all corners of the globe. The Crocodile River forms the southern boundary of the park and the Limpopo River, the northern boundary, a distance of more than 350km's between the two - that's a lot of terrain to cover and discover all kinds of species! For those who have been dreaming of experiencing an African safari in their lifetime, this destination is for you. The following day we set off on the next leg of your journey to one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, Victoria Falls. 

Accommodation: Your stay in the Kruger is within a private concession that is home to the beautiful Imbali Lodge. Your suite has a private plunge pool for those hot summer days and spa treatments are available in between your game drives, which take place in open 4x4 Land Cruisers. In Zambia your stay for the next two nights is at the David Livingstone Safari Lodge & Spa. The lodge is positioned on the Zambezi River, a short drive away from Victoria Falls.
