More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step from the transfer vehicle as the air changes—dry, warm, dust carrying the distant call of hornbill and the metallic bark of a vervet monkey. On day one a half-day or sunset drive eases you into Kruger National Park’s mosaic of mopane woodlands and riverine trees; by day two you’re rising before dawn to find elephants moving toward the Sabie river and lions stretching in the long grass.
