Camping in South Africa - 5 days

South Africa camping safaris and mobile camping tours and travel are a throw back to the more traditional safaris. Mobile camping safaris involve being “on the move “to have your tented camp move with you. Camping safari in Kruger National Park was undertaken by early explorers and was led by qualified camping guides. This was the African safari way of exploring remote holiday locations by day and sleeping under canvas by night.

Our camping tour in South Africa caters for small groups ensuring exclusive personal attention from the camping staff. African safaris adventures have successfully operated camping safaris in over the years earning reputation for quality camping vacations in Africa. Camping tents are pitched on excellent animal viewing location and thus a safe and comfortable camping experience. Camping tour in Kruger Park runs between 2 and 20 nights and Find listed luxury camping holidays in South Africa combining permanent safari tented camps with mobile safari camps south Africa finest game viewing National parks.

There is no better way to experience the magical African wilderness than by camping out under the wide skies, sitting around a crackling campfire and watching the spectacular sunsets!  There are three different styles of camping safaris in South Africa; you can go on a semi participation mobile camping safari, a non participation mobile camping safari or a more up-market tented camp safari where you would usually do a flying safari from one tented camp to the next.

DAY 1: (TUE) KRUGER PARK
Depart Hazyview at 12h30 (allowing clients to connect on the Johannesburg shuttle if necessary) in an open safari vehicle to Skukuza for lunch (own account) and an introduction to the Park

Use this opportunity to shop, as there are no shops at our campsites
This area of the Park offers excellent game viewing - we can expect to see general game, possibly lion and elephant and maybe even an elusive leopard
The Kruger National Park has identified several 'wilderness' campsites for the exclusive use of the tented safaris within the central section of the Park
Each site, situated in an area of unspoiled natural beauty is rich in bird and animal life
 On arrival guests are shown to their tent before meeting for sundowners and dinner
We hope to be in for a noise filled, exciting evening!

An early rise accompanied by tea and coffee, before setting out to explore one of Africa's greatest game reserves
From our privileged private wilderness sites we have the freedom to access areas of the park rarely visited
Chances of seeing one or allof the famed 'Big Five' are excellent, and of course the smaller plains game species and our wonderful African bird life is prolific
Morning safaris are complemented by delicious 'bush breakfasts' and a siesta is always possible during the heat of the African day!
No safari to the Kruger would be complete without visits to sites of historical and cultural importance. Sites such as the Wolhuter Memorial, Orpen Dam and the old trasnport riders' roads all add interest to the day's safaris and bring to life the early pioneering days of the area
