What travelers are saying

"We booked a National Geographic expedition Holland and Belgium by River. The promotional literature promised a 14-day deposit refund window. The “invoice” was marked “non-refundable” deposit. We completed the National Geographic Traveler Information. About 8 days later we received the “Travel Agreement” to be signed. We both approved and signed the National Geographic documents. A Cruise Line Travel agreement was enclosed but had no signature line. This document contained language which was unacceptable. We submitted the signed NatGeo documents. The following day we canceled the trip due to the unacceptable Cruise Line language. Cancellation was made 12 days after booking and no deposit was returned. We were told on the phone that the refund deadline was triggered by the 14 day window OR signatures on the Travel Agreement which ever came first. This was NEW information. To date, we have received NO refund of our $1000. We cancelled our trip within the advertised 14 day window."

Kruger National Park, South Africa Tour Selection Trips

  • You can choose Kruger National Park safaris that range up to six days, which provide ample time to explore the park and some of its surroundings.
  • Guided tours to Kruger National Park also frequently include other points in South Africa as well as in neighboring countries, such as Zimbabwe’s Victoria Falls or Botswana’s Okavango Delta.
  • Your preferred level of accommodation – whether basic camping, a variety of cottages, or luxurious lodges – may determine which safari operator you’d feel most comfortable with.
  • Some tour operators offer several different levels of accommodation, pricing the tours accordingly.
  • When planning your trip, keep in mind that Kruger’s summer months (October to April) are hot and often rainy, which makes viewing animals more difficult (though prices may drop).
  • Wildlife viewing is often better during the South African winters (May-September), which tend to be warm and mild during daytime, and generally dry.
