The world-renowned Kruger National Park offers a wildlife experience that ranks with the best in Africa. Established in 1898 to protect the wildlife of the South African Lowveld, Kruger National Park is unrivalled in the diversity of its life forms and a world leader in advanced environmental management techniques and policies. Kruger is home to an impressive number of species: 336 trees, 49 fish, 34 amphibians, 114 reptiles, 507 birds and 147 mammals.
We had a great safari experience at Kruger National Park and at nearby Karongwe Private Game Reserve in South Africa. We entered Kruger Park via the Numbi Gate early in the morning, had lunch ar Lower Sabie Rest Camp and we exited the park through the Phabeni Gate in the late afternoon. We saw the blue wildebeest, kudu, impala, nyala, bushbuck, waterbuck, zebra, giraffe, leopard, buffalo, elephant, hippopotamus, crocodile, white rhinoceros, baboon, dwarf mongoose, tortoise and many birds. But it is at the Karongwe Game Reserve the next morning that we finaly met Mr lion and also had the great experience of tracking a male cheetah on foot for quite a long distance.
