Amazing! Amazing! Amazing!
Amazing!!!! you will not regret doing this tour. Staff were great. We saw so many animals. Camping in the park was fun.

Great experience
A must do if you come to South Africa. The park is very extensive and you can see many different animal species. The camp tent is comfortable and it gives a more authentic experience. The park guide was friendly and had the patience to show us the animals. Something worth improving is the transportation from Johannesburg to Kruger, it was a long ride and the seats didn't recline.
Response from the operator: Hi Fabian, Thank you for your kind review. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed the authenticity of the bush and overall experience of the camp, and of course, the incredible wildlife sightings during your drives. And thank you greatly for your feedback regarding the shuttle transfer - we will continue working to improve the journey included to get here. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable safari. Thank you for choosing to explore Kruger with us!

Kruger Safari
Excellent tour of Kruger National Park! Well worth for those that can only spare two days. Our guide and driver were excellent! Be prepared for long days to see flora and fauna of the famous Kruger National Park. There were lots of animal encounters during our visit. Both the evening/night safari and the full day safari were excellent. At the camp we were treated exceptionally well by the hosts.
Response from the operator: Good Day Zoltan, Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear that you received exceptional service as our hosted guests. We're extremely pleased to know that you enjoyed both your safaris as well as the wildlife encounters along the way. We appreciate your feedback on the overall experience, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure some time in the Future. Thank you for choosing us.

Truly magical. This tour...
Truly magical. This tour had the best guide that I’ve worked with in all of Africa. He was incredibly knowledgeable. He was extremely patient. There were portions where we felt like there’s not a chance to see a leopard or cheetah and he continued to patiently wait and work with the other guide guides to help us find them. This tour made my whole trip! The guide alone was worth the money.
Response from the operator: Hi Purav, Thank you again for this wonderful review - we truly appreciate your feedback and to know that it was the highlight of your entire African trip. We appreciate your kind words towards Muzi, your guide - He was delighted to hear your thoughts about our service and your guided Safari. We hope this becomes one of your many treasured memories about Africa and we would be delighted to welcome you back again anytime in the future. Thank you for choosing us to help you explore Kruger.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Johannesburg.
How much does Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg cost?
+
Prices start at $380 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 Two day Kruger National Park 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 Johannesburg is not rushed.
Is Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 43 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Johannesburg, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg?
+
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 Two day Kruger National Park 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 Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg?
+
Around 15 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Two day Kruger National Park 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 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, Ultimate Johannesburg Soweto Experience with Apartheid Museum, Full Day Ultimate Pilanesberg National Park Safari from Johannesburg or Pretoria. 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.
What is included in Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg?
+
Included: Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: Tips, lunch and Items of person interests. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg?
+

What languages is Two day Kruger National Park 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 Two day Kruger National Park Safari from Johannesburg?
+
