Safari Rangers operate a unique 'Big Cat Safari'
in South Africa, designed to ensure you spend a few days searching, tracking, observing and learning all about
the Lions of Kruger Park and the famous Leopards of Sabi Sands.
Our Big Cat Safari is for anyone who has an extra interest in South Africa's big cats.
Based on our Combo Safari
option the daily 'on road' game drives in the Kruger Park, focus on viewing Lions with the daily 'off road' 4 x 4game viewing drives and walking safaris in the Sabi Sands, focus on tracking and viewing Leopards; all in all an unbeatable safari.
Going on safari and witnessing a 'Lion Kill' is just incredible. With our Safari Rangers insight and knowledge of Lion territories in the park and being at the right place at the right time, you might just be lucky enough to view some Lion action normally seen on the Discovery Channel.
The ultimate in Leopard viewing is to see a 'Leopard Kill' where one see's a Leopard pounce on it's pray, kill it, carry it up a tree and commence eating. Leopards have the second highest kill rate (70%) amongst predators, so with concentrated Leopard viewing and with a bit a luck, it may be possible to see a Leopard Kill.
It's due to
South Africa's winter season from April to August, referred to as the dry season, that provides the ideal conditions for us to provide Big Cat Safaris.
It virtually doesn't rain in the dry season, so the park is transformed into a brown and almost barren landscape. The smaller waterhole's and rivers dry up between June and August which causes the general wildlife to concentrate around the parks bigger waterhole's and rivers. The Lions know this and stakeout these areas for easier hunting.
During the dry season the grass is low, the bushes and trees lose their leaves and as a result one can have an unobstructed view through the bush making it easier to track and view Leopards, especially at night.
Our Big Cat Safari is all about providing you with the opportunity to spend 4 or 5 days with the Lions of Kruger Park and the Leopards of Sabi Sands; a once in a lifetime experience.
