When To Visit

For the best game viewing, visit Kruger National Park and Sabi Sands Safari during the dry winter months of May to October. Even though it's winter, daytime temperatures still range from 15 to 25 degrees. The grass of the savanna is at its shortest these months making it easier to spot the wildlife.

When the summer season brings rain, Kruger and Sabi Sands flourish with higher temperatures, lavish greenery and thick grasses. Waterholes fill drawing animals from far and wide and you can spot summer birds and newborn animals.

Food & Drink

On a luxury getaway here, you'll find delicious dishes inspired by local produce. Fresh fruits and vegetables are coupled with first-class meats, all paired with remarkable views overlooking Kruger and Sabi Sands. Try a traditional outdoor boma at Serondella Lodge or Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge and share your safari stories around an open fire.

Relax with a glass of wine from the famous Cape vineyards and discover fine dining below the stars at night. During the day, spot animals from a viewing deck whilst enjoying afternoon tea.

Passport & Visas

You should carry identification with you at all times and keep a photocopy of your passport. For holidays less than 90 days, British citizens do not need a visa when visiting Kruger National Park and Sabi Sands. Visit GOV.UK for more advice on passports, visas and travel.
