Hello all, | ||
hi tom is the problem with staying in a restcamp within the park that you find only twin rooms and that you are looking for a double room (which is understandable, especially as you will be on your honeymoon) ? you may want to look at the south african national park website, where you can find great information about the restcamps etc. skukuza for example has luxury bungalows with double beds http://www.sanparks.org/parks/kruger/camps/skukuza/tourism/accommodation.php. if you stay outside of the park, choose a lodge / hotel not far from a gate. hazyview is a good choice. if you stay outside of krüger, you just pay the entrance fee at the gate when you drive in in the morning (there is no limitation on how many visitors are allowed in to park per day). please look at https://www.lonelyplanet.com/thorntree/forums/africa/south-africa/kruger-recommendations for more info on the different accommodation options in and near krüger np. and do consider spending 2 or 3 nights in a private game reserve (not cheap, but a fantastic experience). its your honeymoon, so why not splurge a bit and do something that you will always remember. as for the second part of your itinerary: i would fly to port elizabeth (instead of george). both airports are about 160km away from tsitsikamma. the advantage if you ply to p.e., is that you will not drive the same way twice (if you fly to george, you drive via knysna to tsitsikamma, and later on back to knysna). where are you going after knysna ? to george and fly back home via joburg ? you are not planning to visit cape town ? | 1 | |
