Going to South Africa and visiting Kruger National Park was by far the most epic vacation I’ve ever experienced.<\/p>\n
Every day spent in Kruger Park was unique. We were able to watch African wild animals in their natural habitat – zebras rutting, lions mating, lionesses devouring prey, giraffes dancing, elephants playing, baboon family gatherings, and so much more.<\/p>\nKruger National Park is huge, about 220 miles (350km) from north to south. We entered the park through the Crocodile Bridge and the Malelane southern entrances. Since our lodging was outside the park, we were only able to cover the very southern portion of Kruger, though each day we would explore different roads and different animals.\n– Click on any picture to enlarge –

We stayed in an elevated single-room tent at Jackalberry Ridge in Marloth Safari Park, where animals such as giraffes, kudus, zebras and warthogs could roam free. The park borders the south side of Kruger, separated by the Crocodile River. The little warthog and the baby duiker liked to hang out in our yard!<\/p>\n
