There's nowhere better to spot 'The Big Five' than South Africa's most famous safari game reserve, the Kruger National Park, and the private safari reserves that hug its borders. On Mpumalanga Safaris lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino can all be found, and highly skilled and experienced rangers know just where to look. Bird life is prolific and for sheer variety of flora only the impenetrable Amazon rivals the species density to be found here.
