“3-hour guided walking safari in Kruger's wilderness — track animals on foot with an armed ranger and expert tracker.
About This Experience
A walking safari is the most intimate and authentic way to experience the African bush. Led by an armed ranger and expert tracker, you'll walk quietly through Kruger's wilderness, reading tracks, identifying bird calls, and learning about the intricate ecology of the bush. You might track elephants to a watering hole, observe dung beetles at work, or identify the medicinal plants used by local communities for centuries. The sounds, smells, and textures of the bush become vivid in a way you'd never experience from a vehicle.
