4 Day Kruger Park Safari Getaway
Join us on an authentic Kruger Park Safari. At 20,000 square kilometers, the Kruger National Park is arguably the finest safari destination in South Africa and offers an abundance of wildlife viewing opportunities. Travelers are virtually guaranteed to see every large animal of the Kruger and wider eco-system. Renowned for its predators – especially lions, leopards and cheetahs – and with plenty of elephants favouring the Southern and central plains of the bushveld, the Kruger Park dazzles even the most hardened safari critics.
Why book a 4-day Kruger Park safari with South Africa Adventures?
Our safari guides have an absolute passion for the bushveld and wild animals of the Kruger. They have traveled extensively throughout South Africa having seen and experienced everything they need to create a totally mind-blowing Kruger Park safari experience.
We will give you the Kruger Park Safari you really want
This 4-day Kruger park safari has been designed from a locals perspective. The tour is a depiction of how we as South Africans enjoy a safari. This includes where we stay, the safari drives, the food we eat and of course how we eat…. under the African skies besides a roaring fire with a nice glass of wine.
We know the Kruger!!
We have been involved in Kruger Park Safaris since we were toddlers. We have been through the safari experience learning curve and have hopefully created a unique and interactive travel experience for our guests.

Value for Money

About the tour
This jam-packed 4 day/3-night Kruger Park safari adventure is dedicated to giving you a truly unique wildlife and cultural experience. We have included 2 full days on safari with our ranger, 3 nights’ accommodation in an awesome spot that overlooks the crocodile river in to the Kruger Park, plenty of downtime to cool off in the pool with an ice cold beer as well as some real good South African food.
When do our tours depart?
Our departure times are dependent on bookings. We just need 48 hours’ notice to organise the trip. If we have a minimum of 2 people, we will make it happen.
What if I am a solo traveller?
Can get a bit tricky. Please contact us to see the available dates. We would then slot you into an existing safari to save on costs. We could of course take you alone, but the cost would just be way to expensive. Unless of course you happen to have Liberia’s entire deficit in your pocket.
When is the best time to go?
Safari time is any time. You may want to avoid the busy seasons which are the Easter and Christmas holidays in South Africa. The Kruger will be busy and makes our lives a living nightmare with accommodation bookings, long queues to get into the Kruger Park and traffic jams at the lion sightings. Yes the grass may be a tad longer in the rainy seasons from say November to March but we still see a lot of wildlife.
Kruger Park Safari costs explained
We are committed to giving you the best possible Kruger Park safari that is within your budget. Our tours have been created to make the most of your time and money. We will include as many upfront costs as possible, so you don’t get any nasty surprises on the safari. You can view all of these in our ‘inclusions’ section.
The 4 main factors that influence the cost:
- Your accommodation
After the transport, accommodation makes up a hug percentage of the overall safari cost. Where you stay will influence the cost a lot. Our accommodation suppliers have been chosen on value for money and location. This particular tour will include a 3 star lodge. The costing is worked out on a per person sharing basis. So, if your name is Norman Nofriends and need a room for yourself…be prepared for an extra cost.
- Travel times and peak seasons
As with the seasons of weather, so are the seasons of travel. Peak times like December and Easter are always going to bump up the pricing a tad. Always best to travel in low season. It is also better from a traffic perspective. The Kruger can get super busy in the peak seasons.
- The transport
This is the other big cost in any safari tour. All of our Kruger park safaris include return transfers from Johannesburg. The Southern part of the Kruger where we like to go is over 400km away from Johannesburg. The costing is worked out on the age old ‘economies of scale’ principle. The more people we get the less expensive the pricing.
- Size matters
Basically, the bigger the group the less the cost. A lot of the costs like transport, guide fees and food costs can be distributed among a larger group. So, round up your friends pardner.
