other animals: Food Theives, Watch out for the Monkeys!
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Make sure you close your car doors and shut your windows in the park. As smart as I try to be about keeping animals out of my vehicle, vervet monkeys made a real ass out of me at N'wamanzi Viewsite. I was out of my car two seconds before they ran into my window and stole my bread. They can be really aggressive. Baboons are worst and are much much larger.

    Warnings Or Dangers: Beware at the Numbi Gate
  • Tip Rating:
  • Apparently security at the Numbi Gate is a problem. I wondered why the park opened the Phabeni Gate so close to the north of the Numbi Gate. My question was answered when a local told me that tourist were being robbed by villagers outside the gate. I was told not go in through this gate and instead go through the Phabeni or Paul Kruger Gate.
    I was told that the Numbi Gate will be closed in the future.

    Warnings Or Dangers: Making Advanced Bookings
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • This is South Africa’s premier park and is now getting a lot more press and attention. It is very popular during school holidays so book ahead during January and February and during the three week holiday in July.

    It may be a good idea to make reservations way in advance if you definately know the dates you wish to visit the park.
