  1. Get a chance to see the Big Five game

Isn’t it a wonderful opportunity to see the famous big five game (lion, buffalo, leopard, elephant, and rhino) at one of the prominent safaris in South Africa? A visit to the Kruger National Park will fulfil this desire as you get to see them in the morning or in the evening when they are most active. This is why a few days at the park will do you a lot of good.
