    Best experience in Kruger

    Solly, our transfer driver, was very friendly and took great care of us. Our safari guide was professional, humorous, and made the experience so engaging and enjoyable. We only wish we could have stayed for a few more days!

    South African Safari, and lodging.

    Solly drove us to the park and our lodging. It was a long trip from Johannesburg, but with conversation and a couple really awesome stops. Our driver made the trip a wonderful experience. He stopped along the way at an area that was free to view rhinos ostrich, zebra, and other animals at a water hole near the gas station and gift shop. Lodging were beautiful as we pulled up to a very modern and beautiful location. It was not what I was expecting. The food was great and the tour was amazing. Our tour guide was MUZI. He was great as well. Never imagined seeing so many animals at the Safari. We even have to see baby hyena nursing with their mother and another hyena around. It was fun, searching for different animals. We even got to see a leopard. Going back out again tomorrow to see if we can find the lions. This is a must do while in Africa. Such an amazing experience worth the money.

    Response from the operator: What a wonderful experience to read about! Thank you for choosing us for your Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg. We’re delighted that Solly made the journey enjoyable and that your accommodation, meals and safari exceeded your expectations. Seeing a leopard and baby hyenas with Muzi sounds like a fantastic day in the bush! We’ll be sure to share your kind words with both Solly and Muzi. Hopefully the lions complete your adventure tomorrow! Thank you for recommending Africa Moja Tours & Safaris – we’re thrilled to be part of your African safari experience.

    Exceptional experience

    Exceptional experience from pick-up to drop-off. Isaac was my driver and he was very friendly, punctual and a good laugh on the long journey. The trip was relaxed; they obviously know what they are doing! There were 4 others on the tour so perfect size. The hotel was very pleasant and only 10 mins away from the Kruger Park gate. Take binoculars. Only change I would make is go for the 3 days if you can so you have more of a chance to see animals.

    Reliable and professional service

    have good customer service. Everyone we dealt with is very professional, kind, and helpful. The staff responds promptly to written concerns raised. I will refer Moja African Tour to my friends. We enjoyed the Kruger National Park and the Victoria Falls. All the drivers who brought us to the safari and the falls are very helpful. I would like to especially recognize Ben. I also want to recognize all the drivers who pick us up from and drop us off at the airport and hotels like Clever, Rudzani, Zolly, and Fortune. They are all amazing people,

    Response from the operator: We’re truly delighted you enjoyed your 6-Day Victoria Falls and Kruger Safari and experienced professional, friendly service throughout. Your recommendation means the world to us. A special thank you for recognizing Ben, Clever, Rudzani, Zolly, and Fortune — we’re proud to have such dedicated team members who make every journey smooth and memorable. We look forward to welcoming you back to Africa again soon

    World class experience

    A fantastic 2 days with transfer to the reserve, overnight accommodation and a wonderful tour. We had the good fortune to see all of the big 5, 4 on the first day and lions on the second. The drive out to the park with Solly was exceptional and Given tour of the big 5 inside the park was not short of amazing. Both these guys provided a once in a lifetime experience

    2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Pretoria.

    How much does 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg cost?

    +

    Prices start at $774 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Pretoria usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Pretoria is not rushed.

    Is 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 33 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Pretoria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg?

    +

    Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Pretoria can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Pretoria and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Pretoria within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Pretoria?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Pretoria experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soweto Cultural Walking Tour with Lunch, Guided Bicycle Tour of Soweto with Lunch, Johannesburg and Soweto tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Pretoria?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Pretoria?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg?

    +

    Included: Light Snack included on Day 1; Bottled water; Overnight accommodation with Bed and Breakfast; Driver/guide; and National Park fees or Coservation Fees. Not included: Alcoholic drinks (available to purchase). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 18 listed pickup locations in and around Pretoria. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg?

    +

    Is 2 Day Kruger Safari from Johannesburg wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Specialized infant seats are available; and Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
