From the Pafuri region in the North to the Sabi Sand Reserve in the South and everything in between, one is guaranteed a birding experience second to none.Kruger Mammal List
The +147 mammal species available in the Kruger is the main drawcard for most.

When To Visit The Kruger
An all year round safari destination. The dry winters months May through October are best for game viewing while offering daytime temperatures that are comfortable and pleasant. November through April, when the rains arrive they transform the Kruger into a lush green paradise, best for birding as well as that famous "beach and bush safari" itinerary.
