We highly recommend South Africa as a safari destination. Not only is it home to Southern Africa's most diverse wilderness area - the Kruger National Park - but there are also a wealth of alternative safari destinations to choose from.
The most popular South Africa safari areas include the Kruger National Park and the private game reserves which form part of it, like the Sabi Sand and the Timbavati. The Eastern Cape also offers exceptional safaris at both the Addo Elephant National Park and Shamwari Private Game Reserve. The densely wooded Zululand can be experienced on safaris in Hluhluwe and Phinda. The malaria-free areas of northern South Africa, like Madikwe and Welgevonden, have also become increasingly popular safari destinations in recent years.
From private overland safaris that overnight at basic but comfortable national park camps to some of the most luxurious lodges in the world. There is a safari option available whatever your budget may be.
Our private overland safaris explore South Africa's myriad national parks in the expert company of an experienced African Sky guide. Accommodations are typically basic but comfortable, offering an affordable alternative for guests with budget constraints. Our most popular overland safaris explore the Kruger National Park, Addo and Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Game Reserve.
Our personal 4 Star safaris offer fantastic value for money in spectacular wilderness areas, like private concessions within the Kruger National Park and the lesser frequented Greater Kruger game reserves like Balule and Kapama. These safaris are slightly less inclusive - for example, drinks may often be excluded - but three meals daily and unforgettable safari activities are the norm.
The luxury 5 Star safaris offered by African Sky harmonize the needs between the desire for sumptuousness and the limits of a more moderate budget. These safari lodges are typically scattered across South Africa's private game reserves, like Timbavati, Phinda and Shamwari, as well Botswana's Chobe National Park and Namibia's Etosha National Park.
Our exclusive top-end safaris include the most palatial yet intimate safari lodges in the most remote, beguiling settings. Your full board accommodation will include all the bells and whistles, from mouth-watering gourmet meals to safari activities like traditional 4x4 game drives and mokoro safaris. Popular destinations include the Sabi Sand, Mala Mala, South Luangwa and the Okavango Delta.

Diversity of wilderness areas From the authentically wild two million hectares of the Greater Kruger National Park to Phinda Private Game Reserve's seven unique semi-coastal eco-systems and the red sands of the Kalahari Desert, South Africa's diversity of wilderness areas is incomparable. This means that you can return for a novel, unique safari experience again and again.
Best Value for Money Of all the Southern African countries that we offer safaris to, South Africa offers the best value for money. Although this is partially due to the weakness of the South African Rand and favorable exchange rates for foreign visitors, meals, accommodation and transport tend towards the more affordable end of the scale in terms of overall international travel.
Great infrastructure South Africa's well-developed infrastructure makes it much quicker and easier to reach far-flung safari destinations than in any other African country. Commercial flights are almost always an option, as are overland transfers. This fact invariably reduces the cost of your safari. This in no way makes a South African safari an over-commercialized experience devoid of true wilderness encounters.
