Kruger National Park is expecting a high volume of visitors to enter the park during this coming Heritage Day till the weekend from Thursday 24 to Sunday, 27 September 2020. Day visitors to the Park are advised to book their visit in advance in order to secure their entry and reminded that gate daily quotas will strictly be enforced during this period.

Day visitors are urged to either arrive at the gate very early in the morning as the service is on first come first served basis or to pre-book their entrance via central reservations (012 428 9111).

The procedure is that once the daily quota has been reached, only people with bookings are allowed in. There is a possibility to allow more people if there are people who are moving out of the park however individuals cannot rely on that process as they might queue for long hours or end up not having succeeded in entering the park.

Day visitors who pre-book their visit are expected to pay a non-refundable deposit of R46 per adult and R23 per child; which is meant to secure their space because they would have been counted in the number that made the daily quota. Day visitors with advanced bookings are also expected to arrive at the booked gate by no later than 13:00 on the date of the booking because after 13:00 the booking lapses.

Visitors are also reminded of the rules and regulations of the park, with particular emphasis on littering, speeding, getting out of cars and loud noises. Furthermore, visitors are also cautioned of the COVID-19 rules and regulations even though we are operating under Level 1 guidelines.
