Adventure awaits – your way

Whether you are planning a once-off, bucket list African safari or irresistibly returning to the bush, it’s important that you tailor the experience to your needs and desires.

Luckily, there are so many choices for guests visiting the Kruger National Park.

Self-driving – There are those who love to self-drive, and that independence offers a range of choices. Getting there and back on your steam means that you can take time to explore Mpumalanga’s spectacular Panorama Route and visit the scenic and interesting towns enroute to the Park. You also have the autonomy to head into Park for game drives at will, choosing the game watching routes and stops at Rest Camps and picnic sites that suit you best. This option works well for adventurous travellers, families with young children who need flexibility and those returning guests who know Kruger well.

Fly-in – This is an equally popular option that works well for those who have limited travel time and want to get the most out of their stay. Kruger visitors are well-served by a range of flights into Skukuza Airport, Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (KMIA) and Hoedspruit Airport. Once you have arrived, you have the choice of car hire for a self-driving safari or guided game drives.

Safari game drives – There are distinct advantages if you opt for a safari with guided game drives. Elevated seating in customised, open-air vehicles gives you excellent views of the bush. You will also have a professional safari guide at your service who has so much knowledge to share about the game, birds, ecosystems and vegetation that you will see. Our safari guides are familiar with many key species in the area and can be highly effective at spotting special sightings such as the Big 5, as well as the many other fascinating species of mammals, birds, reptiles and insects.

Couples or families? – While Kruger is a sensational destination for a romantic escape, it is equally excellent as a family holiday destination. You choose. If you want to celebrate a new connection or an anniversary, you can stay in a luxury suite, enjoy private dining under the stars and experience a romantic turn down including sparkling wine and rose petals – consider our Couples Spa and Safari Package. On the other hand, if getting into the bush with your family or besties to make cherished memories that last a lifetime, think about our Family rooms that have enough space for everyone.

The important thing is that you tailor this extraordinary African adventure just the way that you want.

Há 100 metros do portão para entrar no Kruger. NÃO fica dentro do parque porém está bem próximo. Da piscina você vê os animais dentro do parque. Hotel excelente.

We booked our honeymoon through TourCompass and stayed at Kruger Gate Hotel. It is an amazing hotel with the friendliest staff. The staff go out of their way to make your day and are always so kind to you. Our particular thanks go to Zenda who was brilliant.
The food is lovely too, lots of different options and new food every night. Even the usual menu was great too and a good price.
We did the private dining overlooking the viewing deck and were blown away by the service, food and cost.
The location itself is amazing, it is a long drive from any town but it is right on the doorstep of Kruger Park. We did 3 full day safaris with the hotel guide (Colin) and he was brilliant: so knowledgeable, funny, knew exactly where to go and found us some incredible animals.
The hotel was clean and the rooms were constantly tidied. The whole hotel was beautiful, decorated well and the animals roaming around were a great addition.
Was a brilliant trip and I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel.

Nourriture délicieuse, ambiance chaleureuse et personnel aux petits soins. L’emplacement est parfait pour partir en safari directement depuis la porte du Kruger Park.

Die Lage direkt am Kruger Park ist natürlich unfassbar einmalig. Infinity Pool mit Blick in den Bark. Die weitläufige Anlage ist sehr schön, und es kann einem schon mal ein Äffchen oder eine Antilope auf der eigenen Terrasse begegnen.

We loved our room, it was spacious and had everything in it that we needed. The property was clean and beautifully decorated. The staff went beyond their duty to prepare our halaal meals. I would highly recommend Kruger Gate.

The hotel is great and just 1 min from the gate. From the pool bar you can see elephants, hippos and impalas. They have an area for kid with games and mini golf

Esta foi a segunda vez que fiquei no Kruger Gate. Hotel lindíssimo, encantador, com uma vista para a reserva de tirar o ar, com direito a animais dos mais variados tipos se exibindo. Quartos espaçosos e confortáveis. Estrutura completa para família, casais e grupos de amigos. A equipe é maravilhosa, muito prestativa e sempre disposta a solucionar qualquer problema. A comida é ótima e muito variada, tanto nas refeições contratadas quanto nos restaurantes como o pool bar. Sou apaixonada por esse hotel! Destaco o atendimento do driver Siya, que foi um querido conosco.
