African JourneySafari Packages & Trips To South Africa

South Africa is recognized for different things: some people know about it that was the last country in the world that abolished the apartheid regime, others appreciate the excellent wines produced in this African country, some say there took place a football world championship, but much more people heard about this land as a great holiday destination for African trips and sightseeing vacations, especially in wildlife sanctuaries such as Kruger National Park and Sabi Sand Game Reserve. African safari packages are available in large number on the international travel scene and are more and more demanded by tourists of all ages. This happens because people saw many documentary movies about wildlife parks in Africa and the interesting and unique cultures of peoples who live there. Also, many tourists understood how fragile is the life on the planet and want to visit some of its last unspoiled areas.

Safari packages to South Africa are in harsh competition with trips offered by other countries like Namibia, Tanzania and Kenya, but also Uganda, Zambia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. Still, many people prefer to book vacation packages to this country, even if sometimes other countries offer more convenient deals! Why happens this? Foremost, due to wildlife richness in national parks and game reserves of this country. There are numerous areas where can be seen many species of animals, but the most renowned are Kruger National Park and Sabi Sand Game Reserve.

Kruger National Park, with 7,332 square miles (18,989 square kilometers), is the largest game reserve and safari destination in South Africa. Together with Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe and Limpopo National Park in Mozambique it makes up the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park. Kruger is renowned for the many bird species (517), but also for the many mammal species (147) including the most famous of all, called the "Big Five": lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard and rhino. There are available many sightseeing trips to South Africa encompassing in itinerary the Kruger National Park and some of the most popular are "Savanna Private Game Reserve Package in Kruger National Park", "Chitwa Chitwa Game Lodge Package in Kruger National Park", "The Classic Kruger National Park Tour", and "Wildlife Experience in Kruger National Park".

Sabi Sand Game Reserve is a privately owned safari park in South Africa and is comprised in fact of more smaller game reserves named Mala Mala, Singita, Exeter, Djuma, Londolozi, Lion Sands, Sabi Sabi, and Ulusaba. In the entire region live numerous wild animal species like cheetah, elephant, lion, buffalo, leopard, rhino, and others. Because there are no fences between these parks and Kruger, all animals roaming free, and therefore the game viewing is amazing! Some vacation deals and safari packages to South Africa include sojourn only in Sabi Sand, while others include trips to more game reserves. There are available safari deals featuring excursions in Sabi Sand like "Panorama Route and Big 5 Safari: Sabi Sand Wildlife Reserve" and "Wildlife Experience at Sabi Sabi Earth Lodge".
