Just as the sun was starting to set.. 🌅

1. We arrived at our beautiful 🦁 kruger lodge

Here's where we'll be calling home for 4 nights!

Complete with resident crocodiles. 🐊 (Just kidding, it's not real. 😆 Looks legit though right!)

We checked in to our cozy rooms & watched the sun set. There are Garden Rooms & Dam Rooms.

If you book early you might even be able to get a ✨ Premium Dam Room like above!

(Subject to Availability. First come first serve basis. Usually only 4 rooms per trip.)

2. We headed to the dining area for our dinner 🥘

We looked for the tables with our room numbers, which would be our dedicated dining table for the duration of our stay.

One question people always ask us is what is the food like? We had a variety of different dishes served Buffet Style for Dinner every night.

Lunch is from an A La Carte Menu.

The food was kind of like a mix of western & asian. Spiced meats. Western favourites like cream pasta, potato wedges..

After a good (short) night's sleep..

3. we reported at 5am for our 1st 🦁 safari game drive in kruger!! ✨

🥶 It can be pretty chilly in the morning and get pretty hot in the afternoon. 🥵 For our upcoming Oct 2025 trips, the temperature range is min 17 - max 31 degrees celsius.

So basically, dress for Singapore weather, but have a jacket for the cooler mornings and evenings. A light jacket is also useful to protect your skin from the sun. ☀️

Anyways there are also thick blankets on the jeep. 🤗 And since we're on safari, dressing in neutral colours is recommended! 🦒

After a short 15-20mins drive we arrived at the Kruger Park Gate where we stopped so our Safari guide could sign us in to enter the Kruger Park. 🦁

Here you can go for a last quick toilet trip. There might also be a coffee cart going around if you would like a cup of hot coffee or hot chocolate! 😋

4. We spent effective 3 days in 🦁 kruger

Over 3 days we will do:

2 Full Days Safari: usually ~ 5am to ~ 4pm
1 Sunrise Safari: ~ 5am to ~ 10am
1 Sunset Safari: ~ 3.45pm to ~ 8pm

As we entered Kruger National Park, I put a long range telephoto lens onto my DSLR, expecting it would be more likely to encounter some Wildlife at a distance. 📸

Minutes upon entering the park, we encounter a lone large Male Elephant 🐘 just grazing on the side of the road.

I was momentarily confused on how near the Elephant was and immediately grabbed my phone first to take some shots. 😂

We managed to see every one of the Big 5! 🦁 Although I didn't manage to get good shots of all of them! 📸

Nothing is guaranteed on a Safari. I guess that is the thrill of the Safari Experience! And also why I can't seem to get enough of going on Safari! 🤣

The only thing you can really do to see more things is to stay longer and go on more Game Drives. 🙈

5. Wildlife hides 👀

Wildlife Hides are camouflaged viewing spots, usually near waterholes, that we may visit to see if we are able to spot any interesting wildlife/birds.

We did see quite a few interesting small birds here!

6. Rest camps in kruger

Kruger has several rest camps within the park where we will stop for Breakfast and Lunch.

Here you can also go to the toilet, get supplies, souvenirs and gifts. 🎁

One of the largest and most popular ones is Skukuza Rest Camp. It's practically a supermarket!

Here you can pick up snacks, drinks, and it also has a wide selection of souvenirs and gifts! ✨

Every evening, Packed Breakfasts are provided by our Safari Lodge for the next day.

It usually consists of sandwiches, a muffin and some fruits and nuts.

For Lunch we will usually we have it at one of the Rest Camp's restaurants.

7. Enjoy a sundowner & sunset safari experience 🌅

Enjoying a Sundowner in the African bush is a classic African Safari Tradition. 🥃

One of the most classic South African Sundowner Drinks is Amarula: a Cream Liqueur drink made from the Marula fruit.

It kind of tastes like Baileys!

The Marula Tree is also known as the Elephant Tree 🐘 as Elephants loveee the Marula Fruit and actively search for it when it's in season.

🌅 Sunset Safaris can be even more challenging in terms of spotting Wildlife with the falling light. It's good to manage expectations and honestly expect nothing! 🙈🙈

A couple of things we were really lucky to come across: coming face to face with Elephants crossing, and an entire herd moving by the water in the night! 🐘

We also saw some Hippos real close! 🦛

Despite these actually amazing sightings, we did also spend quite some time driving without seeing anything at all! 🙈 So managing one's expectations is super important.

Seeing anything is really already a bonus!!

🐘 A family of Elephants crossing the road!

An entire HERD of Elephants moving in the night!!

8. alfresco boma dinner experience 🔥

On certain days, our Safari Lodge also has a nice outdoor dining area for a Boma / BBQ Dinner, yet another traditional South African experience!

Dependent on Safari Lodge Schedule & weather permitting.

🔥 A nice campfire is set, along with a BBQ Buffet.

As South Africa is one of the world's Top Wine Producers, the wines offered at the Lodge are actually quite affordable too! 🍷
