This is the final installment about Kruger Park accommodations with our last night’s camp. So here’s what it’s like staying in Skukuza Rest Camp.
We enjoyed staying in varied camps, trading smaller intimate ones for bigger camps like Skukuza.
Skukuza Rest Camp, Night Five in Kruger Park
On our last night in Kruger Park, we stayed in the biggest camp yet, Skukuza. This camp is so big, it has car rental and conference facilities, two restaurants, and guided tours.
Its size did not make Skukuza any less lovely and our rondovel bungalow was charming. Our accommodation included self-catering and our own grill.
Advantages of staying in Skukuza Rest Camp
Not all of the camps offer tours, so when we could sign up for one, we did. Because Skukuza is a big camp with all the amenities, we were able to take a guided walk on the afternoon of our arrival, where we saw Rhinos!
Be Aware of What’s Inside the Camp
The camp was also home to a lot of monkeys trying to scavenge for food. But one thing we learned while in Kruger is never feed the animals. These are wild animals, and feeding them makes them dependent on humans, greedy, and dangerous.
Where is Skukuza Camp, Kruger Park
Skukuza is a couple of hours drive from the southern park entrances, which is why we stopped there for our last night in the park. After Skukuza, we had to get to Johannesburg Airport for the next stage of our holiday.
Skukuza is a good spot for lots of amenities, comfortable sleeping, and proximity to the south of the park. Kruger itself is magnificent. We both would have happily stayed longer in Kruger Park. We will miss talking with the guides and other tourists as well as checking the sightings board and planning our drives in search of beautiful wild animals.
