National ParkWhere your chances of seeing Kruger's Big 5 are best
A popular entry point into Kruger National Park, the southernmost section is wider than the rest of the park and has 2 main rivers - the Sabie and the Crocodile. The southern part of the park features a sweet grassveld attracting lots of grazers, while the southwest is known to be the most mountainous part of Kruger and gets the most rainfall. Visitors can enjoy not only regular sightings of the Big 5 but a diverse range of other wildlife, too. This part of the Kruger is home to the endangered African wild dog and the white rhino. The southwestern part of the Kruger is the only part where the grey rhebok is found.

What our travellers are saying
Because of the easy way we communicated with our Viatu expert, it felt like planning our holidays with a friend. It made it really flexible and perfectly suitable for our needs. The accommodations that he suggested were just wonderful and a perfect mix of everything we needed.

I'm very thankful for my first Viatu experience. The 3-week trip across Namibia combined incredible landscapes and nature, mindblowing eco-friendly lodges and utter peace of mind. The organisation and support of the Viatu team were spot-on - this is the way to impress. Thanks a lot!
