About this experience
This Kruger National Park and Panorama Route tour is designed for travelers who want the real thing, not a rushed checklist. Over three days, you experience the wild heart of Kruger National Park with a sunset game drive and a full-day open-vehicle safari, guided by professionals who understand animal movement and the rhythm of the bush. Then the journey shifts to the dramatic scenery of the Panorama Route, one of South Africa’s top scenic drives, with iconic stops like God’s Window, the Three Rondavels, and Blyde River Canyon. With both shared and private options, plus flexible 3-star, 4-star, and 5-star accommodation packages, it’s easy to match the trip to your travel style. Most importantly, it stays authentic: Kruger is unfenced wilderness, sightings are natural, and every safari day is different.
