"Kruger National Park" South Africa Travelogue by windsorgirl


South Africa Travel Guide: 14,803 reviews and 27,508 photos

Here are some additional photos for those bird lovers out there. These were all taken at Kruger during the wet season. Apparantly, that is when you will see an abundance of birds.....and we did!

Otherwise known as Zazu from the Lion King.

We came across three cheetahs at the side of the road, they appeared to be stalking a herd of antelope on the other side of the road. Unfortunately, it appeared that we interrupted them and although we waited patiently, we did not get to witness "a kill".

I loved all the multicoloured birds that we saw, including this lilac breasted roller. Our guides were very good at identifying them for us.

    Bwana_Brown directed me to this page and he was right: excellent information. I'm planning on going here later this year and may be alone...I'm really happy you included the name of the tour company. This will definitely help! Thanks!
