Kruger National Park showing a herd of elephants.

Over the lock-down periods, we have had a lot of interest in our Kruger Safaris from people living in Eswatini (Eswatini) who have never been to Kruger before. As soon as the borders open up again to leisure travel we are going to be offering special rates to Eswatini (Eswatini) residents who would like to go and experience a 2 – 5 day Kruger safari.

Guests will be able to choose from a low-cost camping safari or a mid-range bungalow safari. All trips will be run in our open safari vehicles with our qualified and experienced wildlife safari guides, offering a true, authentic safari experience. Kruger is the best place in the whole of Africa to spot the famous Big 5 (lion, elephant, leopard, rhino and buffalo) but there is also so much more to see.

All the camps are safe and comfortable with shops, restaurants, swimming pools and excellent ablution facilities. 

We offer private safaris for closed family units which means you can have the safari vehicles and your accommodation all to yourself, offering extra Covid safety and true exclusivity.

If you would like to explore Kruger please send us an email tours@alloutafrica.com and we’ll get in touch to design the ultimate tailor-made Kruger experience for you and your group.

Plastic pollution.  

• • Refillable water bottles – avoid buying small plastic bottles and keep a refillable bottle on your desk and in your car
  • The need of a favourite latte or cappuccino is strong after lockdown.  Use an affordable refillable cup – some places offer a discount so it’s a double win. 

Reduce your carbon footprint 

• • Travel with someone in your family, friend or Covid19 bubble to reduce the number of vehicles emitting fumes
  • Plant an indigenous tree.  If you aren’t sure where or how contact local forestry, garden centres and environmental NGOs 
  • Use local transport rather than self-driving.  Perhaps set this as a future goal if you aren’t comfortable right now.

Buy local through supporting markets and local artisans rather than big chain stores.

• • Stop at local markets and farms 
  • Support your local independent businesses when buying birthday, wedding and baby gifts, as well as treats and special items 

Reduce waste food.  

• • As a tourist you tend to buy what you need so instead of the big weekly shop only buy what you need, and avoid the bulk buy offers on fresh items.  
  • Many councils / town boards collect food waste.  If not find a local farmer or smallholding where food waste is a delicious meal for hungry pigs!

Please do your bit to reduce your environmental impact at home as you would when you come to visit us in the beautiful Eswatini.
