The Kruger National Park covers over 2 000 000 Hectares, and Kurt Safari was one of the first operators to introduce full-day safaris. This gives clients a chance to see a larger part of the Kruger, compared to short 3-hour safaris which must remain close to the camps, resulting in driving the same areas on every safari. The extended time increases the chances of seeing more wildlife as we traverse different grasslands and ecological zones.
80% of our clients on 3-day safaris encounter all the Big 5.
Kurt Safari makes use of Umbhaba Eco Lodge and Hazyview Sun in Hazyview for our Kruger accommodation, both privately owned quality lodge, with quality accommodation and fantastic meals, rooms are all Air-conditioned and have Wi-Fi. Just 10 km from Phabeni gate, Kruger’s premier wildlife area.
