How much can you see in only two days in the Kruger National Park? Well, as this gallery taken over less than 48 hours around Skukuza Rest Camp during March 2017 proves, a whole lot actually!

Brilliant photos! We find that longer safaris (3-4 days and more) tend to be less rushed though!

Fantastic photos. I am so jealous, Kruger is my favourite place on earth. I could live permanently in one of the thatched huts in Letaba or Shingwedzi camps and go on game drives all day.

I’m with you there, Kim! I believe Shingwedzi is as close as you’ll get to heaven on earth!
Just to make you a little more jealous – we are heading to Satara for the long weekend 😉

Have a great time. I have seen lots of lion and wild dog around Satara.

It’s almost a year since we were last at Satara, at the height of the drought – predators abounded and were having a royal time with so many easy pickings at the waterholes.

They’re fascinating, mostly nocturnal, birds and we’re planning on doing a post on the two South African species of thick-knees sometime in the near future.
