From the Cape to KwaZulu-Natal and inland there are national parks and private game reserves of incredible natural splendor, teeming with not only the must-see 'Big Five' - elephant, lion, rhino, buffalo and leopard - but thousands of enthralling smaller species and one of the greatest diversities of bird species in the world.
The Kruger National
Park, one of the world's greatest game sanctuaries with a hugely
diverse eco-system within its two million hectares, is vastly
different from the desert beauty, red earth of the Northern Province
reserves, where bushmen trackers seek out solitary black-maned
lions. When is the best time to visit: Both the winter and summer months have their benefits: in winter (May to August) the foliage is less dense and the game more visible as they seek out water-holes, but during the summer months the animals have their young, the vegetation is appealingly lush and the late afternoon African storms are spectacular.
