Re: Chat in camp under the Jackalberry tree

How are bunny chow loaves different from other bread ? Difficult to describe, but they are baked in specially shaped tins, smaller than say a quarter loaf of traditional bread. Will try and find a pic of one. Not all shops do them but usually the Food Lovers Markets in Durban have them although we ...

Re: Drives from outside the Gate Info

Welcome back Yahyak!

I would think they are, the vehicles would need to pick you up from the Kruger gate if so, especially for the early morning walk.
If you wanted an afternoon walk you could book directly from the camp and also join the walk from there as well.

Further Info Guided walks

Re: Sunset drive or Nigth drive

Then Croc Bridge will be your closest gate and they definitely do external drives from the gate.
So you can just book at Croc bridge reception while there or book beforehand if you prefer.
