- Camera (charger, batteries, memory cards), Binoculars (with bag for dust protection), Lightweight Flashlight / Torch (LED is best), Mosquito and Insect Repellent, Sunscreen (we recommend SPF 30+ as the African sun burns) and Day backpack (to carry snacks, water, books etc.

Life Changing!!!!
Truly a life changing experience! Far exceeded my expectations and I can’t wait to do this again! We were picked up on time every day. Our driver (s) were very knowledgeable and explained so much. I really learned a lot aside from seeing the beautiful wildlife and scenery. I would rate the safari experience a 10 out of 10!!!

A M A Z I N G !!!
Absolutely amazing organization and support. One of the participants could make it due to a illness, and Danielle reorganized everything effortless. I strongly suggest Shinzelle Safaris.

Experience of a Lifetime
Greatly exceeded expectations on all levels! Simply incredible! There is nothing more impressive than an elephant in the wild! 10/10 for our safari guide! 10/10 for Gecko Lodge staff as well! Do it...you won't regret it!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to rate our experience, we are so happy that you had such a great time! looking forward to staying in touch 😁

Best experience ever!!
Honestly can not recommend Shinzelle enough! We’ve had the most memorable experience and are now sat at Johannesburg airport waiting to go home and are truly sad to be leaving. From the moment we were picked up from the airport everything was seamless. We were even given a complimentary upgrade to the honeymoon suite which was awesome. The food was honestly incredible- huge thanks to the fantastic chef who prepared everything and to Amy for making everything run to plan and even arranging for us to go to an elephant sanctuary- a definite highlight! But by far the best part of our trip was their FANTASTIC guide Jayden. He is like a walking encyclopaedia and answered every one our questions with ease. Every day he went out of his way to make our experience special and found us every animal- even the notoriously hard to find wild dog. We honestly cannot thank Jay enough for making this trip so incredible. Jay- if you get to read this, if you’re ever in London look us up. We’ll happily return the favour and give you a tour of our concrete jungle 😉! If your hesitating about booking with Shinzelle- please do it, will be the best decision you ever make!
Response from the operator: Wow! thank you so much for this lovely review! it warms my heart to hear that you left with this impression and you were a real joy to host! we will most certainly keep in touch and have passed Jay this message so he will definatly be in touch if he is ever in London :) Thanks again so much, Regards Danielle

Honeymoon in Kruger National Park
One of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. My wife and I took the 4 Day tour in July 2019. Everything was unbelievable. Jay is the best safari guide anyone could ever ask for. We had him to ourselves for most of our trip and we had so much fun. Great personality, incredible knowledge of the park and the animals in it. He made it his mission to find everything that we wanted to see. The accommodations were beautiful. We stayed in the honeymoon suite at The Windmill Country Retreat. Everything was first class. The hospitality, service and food were all top notch. We had candle lit dinners waiting for us each night when we came back from our safari. We will DEFINITELY be coming back in the future. Anyone considering doing a safari in Kruger should do it with Shinzelle.
Response from the operator: Wow! thank you so much for this lovely review, it means the world to us that this very special trip for you went so well! we wish you a lifetime of happiness together and will look forward to hosting you both again in the future :D

Why this scores 63
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
4-Day Kruger National Park Safari including Breakfast and Dinner: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Johannesburg.
How much does 4-Day Kruger National Park Safari including Breakfast and Dinner cost?
+
Prices start at $1343 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Johannesburg usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 4-Day Kruger National Park Safari including Breakfast and Dinner take?
+
Plan for about 96 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 Johannesburg is not rushed.
Is 4-Day Kruger National Park Safari including Breakfast and Dinner worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Johannesburg, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 4-Day Kruger National Park Safari including Breakfast and Dinner?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 4-Day Kruger National Park Safari including Breakfast and Dinner suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 96-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 4-Day Kruger National Park Safari including Breakfast and Dinner?
+
Around 4 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 Johannesburg 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 Johannesburg and add a light layer if any part of the 96-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 4-Day Kruger National Park Safari including Breakfast and Dinner 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 Johannesburg 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 Johannesburg?
+
On Outty we rank every Johannesburg experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Soweto and Johannesburg Exclusive Full Day Guided Tour, Full Day Ultimate Pilanesberg National Park Safari from Johannesburg or Pretoria, Half-Day Tour of 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 Johannesburg?
+
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 Johannesburg?
+
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.
