The Kruger National Park spans across two provinces in South Africa, Mpumalanga and Limpopo Province, and you can reach Kruger within eight hours of driving from Johannesburg. Kruger is larger than some small countries in Europe; it is larger than the Serengeti National Park and is just less than two million hectares of conservation area. Kruger National Park is one of South Africa’s most sought after safari and tourist destinations and is one of the world’s most diverse and abundant nature and game reserves. Kruger was established in 1898 by Paul Kruger to protect the wildlife in the area from being hunted to extinction. It was this foresight that ensured the existence of many of the species that exist only in Kruger National Park.
