South Africa - 2017 - Kruger National Park, Marloth park
This is a video compilation from my 2017 Trip to South Africa. Shot in the Kruger National Park and Marloth Park. Thanks in part to Kruger Pride Safaris and Chasin Africa safaris, as well as the Zinkwazibush lodge and Kruger inn backpackers in Marloth park.
I don't own the songs to this video but hope they let me provide them to help share the music of South Africa and beyond.
Marloth Park & Kruger National Park
We visited Marloth Park & Kruger National Park in September 2019. We spent 4 nights in House Shani, that we booked through LekkeSlaap. Although it's still very dry we saw a lot of wildlife. We even had a close encounter with 2 Rhinos. Enjoy our video.

African Wildlife Safari at Kruger National Park, South Africa
If you gave me a list of only 10 more bucket-list travel experiences I could potentially have for the rest of my life, experiencing an African wildlife safari would be right near the top. After making the long bus journey from Johannesburg to Kruger National Park, I couldn't believe this - once in a lifetime - experience was finally about to happen. Waking up at the crack of dawn, we boarded our Land Rover and drove off in the dark to the gates of Kruger National Park. It wasn't long before we witnessed sunrise and our first animal encounter spotting prancing impalas.

The highlights of our first day of safari included spotting a pride of Lions including getting up close views of lioness affectionately licking her cubs and an Alpha male resting in the foreground. Lunchtime, was equally as eventful as I was bombed (shitted on) by two birds eager to grab scraps of our meal.
As the day progressed we spotted giraffes on a frequent basis. Two male giraffes fought swinging their heads violently at one another often landing direct blows to knees. Out of all the violent animal encounters I could have potentially witnessed, gazing at fighting giraffes was not something I would have ever anticipated.
The day ended with an epic sunset featuring a generous portion of crackers, cookies, cheese and wine. On the way back, when the sun had gone down, we used a flashlight to try and spot more animals. Our guide Lloyd, has an acutely trained eye and without his assistance we may have only spotted impalas ourselves ;)
African Wildlife Safari at Kruger National Park, South Africa Travel Video Transcript:
Okay, so today is the big day. Yesterday afternoon we reached the outskirts of Kruger National Park and today we're actually going in to spot some of the wildlife. So we're going in for a sunrise drive. It is really earlier. It is about 5:15 am right now. We're going to head into the park and - yeah - it is safari time!
Okay, so we finally reached the park and I'm going to give you a little tour of our cool truck for the day. Come on over. Come on in.
Make that big climb up there. Yeah, I'm in.
One thing that totally surprised me was just how close we got to the lions. I think it was only about 10 meters away from the road.
So they were really docile and the lioness was just sleeping and cleaning its cubs and in the back there was the big alpha male just stretching and yawning. It was surreal.
So that's been an amazing safari so far. It is only 10 in the morning and we've already seen more wildlife than I ever imagined. We saw lions, elephants, wildebeest. Oh, gosh more than I can even remember. Yeah, it was amazing and we were able to get up close and have a good look at them. So it has been so much fun.
So tell us what happened to you at lunchtime today? So the most ridiculous thing happened to me during lunch. A bird shit right here. It ricochet of off my shoulder all the way down to here. And while I was still recovering from the shock from that another bird shitted on this side. So I got hit on both shoulders but apparently if a bird shits on you it is good luck. So I have a double dose of good luck. Maybe that means I'm going to see cheetahs this afternoon. Woo hoo!
Right now we're visiting a private game reserve to see even more cool wildlife. And what caught us for a total surprise is that we saw so many giraffes. Apparently this is the most giraffes have ever been spotted out here.
So we saw them walk right in front of our vehicle and we even saw a couple of them fighting. They were swinging their heads at each other. It was completely bonkers.
Yeah, so overall it has been an amazing day. We saw more animals than we ever expected. And what a beautiful way to wrap up the day. Now we're just going to watch the sunset, drink some wine and enjoy some cheese. And do it all over again tomorrow.
This is part of our Travel in South Africa series. We're making a series of videos showcasing South African culture, South African arts, South African foods, South African religion, South African cuisine and South African people.

KRUGER GUIDE -
SAFARI GUIDE IN SA -
When I was planning my trip to South Africa and the safari component to our honeymoon, one thing that I've said before is that it was actually pretty challenging because there just isn't a lot of information out there about what it's actually like to be on a safari in Kruger National Park. Sure there were blog posts about it but when it came to YouTube videos providing a walkthrough of the park, camp life, and self-drive, there just wasn't much out there. Sure this video may not cover every single aspect of Kruger but for someone that stayed there for 3 nights and 4 days, it gives you a look into what our experience was like and the two of the larger camps we experienced - Skukuza and Lower Sabie.

Safari in the Kruger National Park (South Africa)
(EN) Kruger National Park is one of the largest game reserves in Africa. It covers an area of 19,485 square kilometres (7,523 sq mi) in the provinces of Limpopo and Mpumalanga in northeastern South Africa, and extends 360 kilometres (220 mi) from north to south and 65 kilometres (40 mi) from east to west. Areas of the park were first protected by the government of the South African Republic in 1898, and it became South Africa's first national park in 1926.
To the west and south of the Kruger National Park are the two South African provinces of Limpopo and Mpumalanga. In the north is Zimbabwe, and to the east is Mozambique. It is now part of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park, a peace park that links Kruger National Park with the Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe, and with the Limpopo National Park in Mozambique.
The park is part of the Kruger to Canyons Biosphere, an area designated by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as an International Man and Biosphere Reserve (the Biosphere).
The park has 9 main gates that allow entrance to the different camps.

South Africa - Marloth Park (Needles lodge)
South of Kruger NP, across the Crocodile river, lies the populair Marloth Park. We visited one of the best lodges on this property, The Needles. Here we celebrated the 86th birthday of my mother Ans. The lodge is great, especially the zebra's looking at at breakfast just a few meters away. In the evening the bushbabies, who are used to people, play around the lodge. A very special place, where we absolutely come back!
South Africa’s Kruger National Park Faces Challenges on Poachers
Over 600 rhinos in South Africa have now been slaughtered by poachers in the country's wildlife parks since the beginning of the year. Game rangers and other experts say they are working round the clock to crack down on poachers. But the formidable rhino remains vulnerable to the greed and violence of cold-blooded wildlife criminals. CCTV's Rene Del Carme brings you that story, but please be advised some of the following pictures are of a graphic nature.
Largest Lion Pride Ever Blocking Road In Kruger Park
The Sweni Mega Pride of lions on the road are all juveniles. I have counted seventeen. There were at least 8 adults of the road in the bush. The Pride entertained us for about an hour and all the lions disappeared in the bush. Filmed at the intersection of the H1-3 and the S126 close to Satara and Sweni Water Hole in Kruger National Park on 25 November 2016.

SOUTH AFRICA lioness puts her cubs in safety, Kruger national park
We saw 4 lions (one still very young) and 1 lioness (with cubs) just north of Lower Sabie. The young male was reluctant to join the others (where I wrote lioness was reluctant please read the young male was reluctant). The lioness put her cubs (seven!) in safety. Very touching when the mother, with a cub in her mouth, turned to one of the cubs saying: I come back and get you too.
