The Kruger National Park is known as much for its prolific wildlife population as its tourist-crowded roads. Shumbalala Lodge in the neighbouring Thornybush Game Reserve has all the pros that come with Kruger – but none of the cons. Thornybush offers a more private safari experience with the added benefit of guests being able to off-road and embark on night drives in pursuit of wildlife.
All of Kruger's wildlife, none of the crowds
