I would recommend a self drive safari as a definite way to see Kruger. The roads are excellent, even the gravel, and the facilities of the park are fantastic. If you take your time and enjoy the park at a leisurely pace you will be amazed at the amount of wildlife you will see.

The speed limit on the tarred roads within the park is 50 km/h with a limit of 40km/h on gravel roads and 20km/h while driving within the restcamps. An average speed of 30km/h on tourist roads is recommended for maximum safety and enjoyment. Wildlife in this park is prolific and can be found easily from the safety of the tared roads.

The total driving experience within Kruger is excellent. Both tarred and gravelroads are in excellent condition, with fantastic maps available that will point you to all the attraction, including waterholes that are placedat strategic locations. These waterhles are pumped by windmills to compensate for the diminished rivers feeding the park, due to irrigation upstream.

It is not very often that you get to see both the front and rear ends of an animal at the same time! Although there were the odd small herd of Wildebeest within the Kruger National Park, I was a little dissapointed thatwe did not see this odd looking animal in huge numbers. Maybe next time?

The best time for travelling the Kruger Park are the dry winter months from the end of May to the beginning of October. The vegetation is low then and enables you to view lots of game, mostly at the waterholes. These waterholes are fed by windmills that pump a continuous supply of water.

The striking pattern of stripes in savannah zebras is different in each animal. Therefore the members of a family can recognise each other by their stripes. Although the stripes are extremely visible at close range, they make a good camouflage from far away and provide protection against predators. Lions in particular like to prey on zebras.
