Visiting a
private reserve
The Kruger park guards will not let you enter a private reserve unless you have pre-booked accommodation reservations with it.
Other
accommodations
If luxury is beyond your budget, there are many alternatives, from no-frill camping sites to comfortable lodge within Kruger National Park
Park size
Kruger National Park is large. It measures 350 kilometers (220 miles) long and 60 kilometers (40 miles) wide.
Malaria
Like most African safari areas, Kruger is in a malaria-risk area. Take anti-malaria pills. This is particularly critical during the wet season (summer).
