There are numerous excellent areas for safaris all<br />
around South <strong>Africa</strong> and researching thoroughly is<br />
highly re<strong>com</strong>mended. Not all 5 animals may make<br />
an appearance and that shouldn’t detract from the<br />
overall experience. However, there are some places<br />
where, with the aid of a good guide and a little bit of<br />
luck, you may be able to see all 5 of them.<br />
South <strong>Africa</strong><br />
Kruger National Park<br />
Kruger Park prides itself for all-year-round Big 5<br />
sightings. It has great infrastructure and facilities<br />
include wheelchair accessibility, WIFI spots and both<br />
walking as well as driving safaris. There are plenty<br />
of ac<strong>com</strong>modation options to suit all budgets and<br />
tastes as well as the choice of private reserves with<br />
far less crowds, making the experience even more<br />
unique.<br />
Most <strong>com</strong>panies organise 3-5 day tours, with<br />
optional extra activities. Some organise longer,<br />
7-day treks. It is not guaranteed that you will spot all<br />
5 in one day or even throughout the duration of the<br />
safari, but the breathtaking beauty of the wilderness<br />
and the numerous other animals roaming free will<br />
more than make up for it. Make sure to check the<br />
weather for the particular area you are visiting as<br />
weather can be quite unpredictable. It gets quite<br />
cold during dry season so pack appropriately!<br />
