Know Before You Go: Budget Safaris
Accommodation:
On a budget Kruger safari, accommodation options include simple yet comfortable thatched huts or tented units, both designed to provide an authentic bush experience.
The thatched huts feature twin beds, a table with chairs, and come equipped with linen and bath towels. Guests have access to communal bathrooms, with separate facilities for men and women, including showers and baths with lockable doors for privacy.
The tented accommodation consists of sturdy canvas structures set on cement platforms, also furnished with twin beds, a table with chairs, linen, and bath towels. Like the huts, these units share communal bathroom facilities.
In the event that accommodation within Kruger National Park is fully booked, guests will receive an upgrade to a private guesthouse just outside Malelane Gate, ensuring a seamless and comfortable stay.
Meals:
On a budget safari, all meals and drinks are at your own expense. Kruger National Park has well-stocked shops and restaurants at every main camp, offering a variety of meal options to suit different tastes and budgets. You can choose to dine at the park’s restaurants, which serve hearty meals, or purchase groceries from the camp shops to prepare your own food. This flexibility allows you to manage your costs while enjoying the convenience of readily available dining options throughout your safari.
Game Drives:
On a budget safari, game drives in Kruger National Park take place in open safari vehicles, providing an authentic wildlife experience with unobstructed views. These guided drives are led by experienced guides who help track animals and share insights about the park’s ecosystem. Morning and afternoon game drives offer the best chances to spot the Big Five and other wildlife in their natural habitat. With the open design of the vehicles, you can fully immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of the African bush while staying within an affordable safari package.
