This is a top rated resort and the three-bedroom unit we had was extremely clean, well furnished, and maintained. The view from the main bedroom onto the lake was stunning as the mist lay on the water early in the morning.

White water river rafting

Attraction

Quote:

This is great fun. You share a two-man cayak and row down the Sabi River near Hazyview. Keep your eyes open for the local residents including a couple of hippos and a crockodile or two. The river is at its wildest during the rainy seaon (spring months).

Kruger National Park

Attraction | "Visiting the Kruger National Park"

Quote:

The Kruger National Park is one of the biggest and oldest national parks in the world. Be sure to plan your travel ahead of time in order to see as much as possible in the time you have available.

Be sure to keep your windows closed and air conditioning up (summer can be VERY hot). Make sure you hae enough to eat and drink in the car as getting out of the car is only permitted within the boundary of the camps. There are restaurants in all the big camps where you can get something cool to drink and something mourish to eat.
