Search for the famous Big Five in the Kruger

Under the cover of darkness, the Kruger comes alive with a whole new host of wildlife. After an early dinner, leave camp as your knowledgable guide leads the way with an infrared spotlight. Look out for the telltale glow of eyes (and rustle) from the trees and scrub, where a shy serval or darting scrub hare may appear. Nighttime is when the big cats truly come into their own and turn the Kruger into their personal hunting ground. Watch enthralled as leopard and lion prowl, with hyena following closely in the hopes of enjoying leftovers. As you trundle back to camp for a hot drink, listen out for the call of the fiery-necked nightjar as it pierces the quiet.
