Broader region

The South African National Parks group manages twenty world-class wildlife parks, across eight provinces, or a total of over a whopping 3,700,000 hectares of South African land. SANParks is one of the foremost conservation and scientific research bodies in the world and serves the important function of conserving sectors of natural and cultural heritage, as well as aiming to couple conservation with social and economic development in rural areas.

The range of ecological variety that falls under the care of SANParks is unparalleled: from savanna and arid semi-desert to coastal areas and parks with forests and grassland habitats; a vast array of fauna and flora may often be found in the same multi-habitat park. We make  SANParks reservations for some of the most popular parks that fall under their banner, including the Kruger National Park which is the sprawling home of the Big Five in the North East, as well as the Tsitsikamma National Park – the forested-coastal park in the heart of the Garden Route.

Some of the other famous parks include spots as diverse in scenery and wildlife as the Augrabies National Park, which hosts the thundering waters of the Augrabies Waterfall; the Golden Gate Highlands National Park at the foot of the Maluti Mountain range and the contrasting vegetation of the Addo Elephant National Park - home to more than 450 elephants as well as the Great White Shark  and the Southern Right Whale. Various SANParks accommodation spots cater to all kinds of holidaymakers. Those travelling with the whole family can look forward to a wide selection of fun outdoor activities.  Adventure-seekers can spot wildlife on game drives, or guided game walks, or go hiking in some of the most exciting trails in South Africa.  Those seeking a restful break in the wilderness can take in the astounding beauty of some of the most photographed panoramas in the world.

Accommodation within the parks ranges from tranquilly-set tented camps to quaint family cottages and spacious bungalows. Whether it’s the charming Cape Dutch style cottages of the Karoo National Park, or the idyllic forest cabins tucked away in the bucolic woodlands of the Wilderness National Park, we will be able to book you the ideal SANParks venue for your perfect getaway.

Safari.com was helpful start to finish
Safari.com was helpful start to finish. The sign up process was clear, the support was great as we tailored our experience. Directions were perfect to get there. Everything in the safari was as we thought it would be and even better. It literally was the trip of a lifetime and exceeded our expectations.

Heleen 's service was superb
Heleen 's service was superb: prompt, friendly and efficient. She altered my reservation promptly and efficiently. She warned me that SAN Parks might not be able to accommodate my wishes, but all is well.

A superb experience
Dear Jayson, You are a star. The very professional pieces of advice and the optimal design of the schedule that turned our holidays into an extraordinary experience. Thank you so much! Leopard Hills are indeed the boutique luxury camp that you recommended. People there are incredible friendly and knowledgable. The guide was excellent. And the cook, she was a friendly star too. The flight connections went well, despite that rather long drive, and the very early morning start. Wake up calls at 4 AM should be forbidden :) Mauritius was great, Club Med The Plantation Albion was the perfect choice. (The other Club Med @ Cannonier we visited only and were glad we didn’t chose that one…) Thank you again for the superb organisation.

So far, great service
This review is for the booking only as we have not taken our trip yet. Safari expert Sara Van Coille has been great to work with. We booked later than we planned and she was able to come up with an itinerary that was perfect for our group. Sara has responded to all our questions and was very quick to get back to me. From our experience so far, we would definitely recommend Safari.com
