This morning, you'll be up early to experience Kruger Park as it wakes up. Today, you'll experience both a morning and evening safari. You'll witness the excitement of the first rains; the terrapins playing in river pools, the call of the Pied Kingfisher and steady chirping of sociable tree frogs. Savour the rich smells of the bush, hear the shrill calls of the Magpie Shrike and see the wind blowing through the savannah plains. Breakfast, lunch, high tea and dinner will be served at camp.
