A luxury lodge in a private reserve on the edge of the Kruger Park. Find your soul in the heart of the wilderness - this place will change your life (if you'll let it).

I hired a car at J'burg airport and headed up to Kruger for a week self-driving around. A 2WD road car is fine even on the gravel tracks. Booking accommodation before going is recommended on the SAN web site.

I stayed at three different 'camps' from the south to the north to view a range of habitats. Self-driving gives you much more freedom to take photos (I recommend turning off the engine, taking a beanbag and 300mm+ lens to get sharp shots). The 'camp sites' offer guided bush walks which I highly recommend.

Four-hour drive from Johannesberg airport to the nearest entry gate.

Awesome bush experience in South Africa's famous national park - and affordable too. The treehouses are lined up along the banks of the beautiful Klaserie River. Nothing compares to waking to the chorus of weaver birds and hippos. The trip included game walks and game drives in the park where we were lucky enough to spot a leopard attempt to chase down an impala.

The camp is in the Balule section of the Kruger National Park. I booked through Terry Murphy at African Budget Safaris in Hout Bay, Cape Town.
