Upon arrival you will be met and transferred to your Kruger Park Safari Camp. Pretoriuskop captures the spirit of Africa's past, the first camp to open within the then Sabie Sands game reserve in 1929; Pretoriuskop was originally a stop over for the traders trekking inland from the coast to the newly discovered goldfields. Steeped in history, The Kruger Safari & Adventure Company have selected Pretoriuskop as its operational base within the Park. Situated in a prime "Big Five" game viewing area, the camp is conveniently situated for transfers from both Kruger-Mpumalanga Airport and Hazyview, gateway to Kruger Park. We have our own resident game ranger, who personally conducts many of the game activities and safaris, assists clients while in camp and is also on 24hr emergency duty.

Accommodation is in comfortably appointed cottages that have been decorated to capture the spirit of early days of the Park. All cottages have en-suite bathrooms (shower only), air-conditioning/heater, kitchenette facilities and a small fridge. Facilities in Pretoriuskop include a restaurant, convenience store with a curio/bookshop section, filling station, launderette and swimming pool. An interpretive center and self guided trail within the camp adds to the overall game experience.

In the afternoon you will depart on your first exciting open vehicle safari. You will be thrilled by close encounters with Africa's wildlife, from the prettiest antelope to those gentle giants of the bush elephant, as your experienced ranger imparts his knowledge of Africa's wildlife.

Accommodations for two nights inclusive of breakfast and dinner daily as well as all game viewing activities.
