Experience the best of Africa on this 3-day budget glamping safari in Kruger National Park.

Spend your days exploring the park on game drives, spotting the Big Five and other amazing wildlife. In the evenings, relax in your outfitted tented camp, enjoying delicious meals and stargazing under the African sky.

Here is your itinerary for the 3-day budget glamping safari in Kruger:

Day 1 – Afternoon Sunset Drive
You will start this exciting safari early in the morning when you depart from OR Tambo International Airport and travel through the Highveld and Lowveld of Mpumalanga to arrive at Sekekama Tented Camp around 14:00.

You will have time to refresh before the real adventure starts with an afternoon sunset game drive in an open safari vehicle through the Greater Kruger Blue Canyon Reserve.

Keep your eyes peeled for the Big Five – lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and buffaloes – as well as other amazing wildlife such as giraffes, zebras, and hippos.

Enjoy sundowners in the bush, then return to the camp to gather around the boma fire for dinner and stories about the day’s adventures.

Day 2 – Full Day Kruger
Wake up early to be ready for your full-day Kruger National Park adventure. The exact departure times will be communicated to you the night before as it will be decided according to animal activity at the time to give you the best opportunity for game viewing.

Your safari in Kruger will last about 7 to 8 hours, during which you will venture deep into the Orpen-Satara area, where your chances of seeing lions are better than anywhere else in the park.

You will return to the camp with ample time to unwind and get ready for a starlit dinner around the fire.

Day 3 – Optional Bush Walk & Farewell
Your day will start early again, this time with an optional 1-hour bushwalk before breakfast (Additional R500 per person). After breakfast it is time for good-byes and your return to Johannesburg. You should arrive back at OR Tambo International Airport not later than around 17:00 or 18:00.
