Wildlife holidays in South Africa
Kruger National Park needs no introduction its home to the Big Five, and easily accessible for a classic safari holiday. But theres more to a wildlife holiday in South Africa than elephants, lions and buffalo. Around Cape Town, chattering penguins waddle along beaches, while whales and dolphins and great white sharks! cruise offshore. You can also visit private reserves and even take part in leopard conservation activities, alongside researchers and scientists.
