Depart Maputo and travel to the southern entrance of Kruger National Park. Cross the border at Ressano Garcia to Komatipoort, South Africa, where immigration formalities are carried out.

Upon arrival at the Crocodile Bridge Gate, meet your guide and embark on a game drive. Kruger National Park is famous for its abundance of wildlife, including the Big Five (elephant, rhino, lion, buffalo, and leopard), as well as zebra, giraffe, hippopotamus, and several species of antelope and exotic birds.

Choose between a morning safari or a full-day safari. For the morning safari, depart early to see the animals at their most active. For the full-day safari, explore the park throughout the day, with several strategic stops at viewpoints, rivers, and waterholes, where the fauna congregates.

During the tour, the guide will provide information about animal behavior, local ecosystems, and the conservation of the park. The Kruger Park is home to an incredible diversity of flora and fauna, with landscapes ranging from open savannahs, forest areas, and watercourses.

Stop for lunch at a rest camp, such as Lower Sabie Rest Camp or Skukuza Rest Camp, where you can enjoy meals overlooking the savannah. During lunch, you may have the opportunity to spot elephants, crocodiles, or hippos that are often seen near rivers.

After a day full of adventure and wildlife sightings, return to Maputo in the late afternoon. Pass through the border again before arriving back in the city where you started, concluding an unforgettable day.
