What a great tour/tour group! Hotel pick up was on time and early. They pick you up in a safari vehicle with blankets for the crisp ride when the top is off. Much to our surprise, we were the only ones on the tour -- but even if there were others, it would have been a small group which is always nice. Our time at Kruger was wonderful and our guide absolutely fantastic and knowledgeable. She had packed lunch/drinks for us which was a nice touch. We also had time to go through all the gift shops, but the bulk of the time was driving through the park and seeing the amazing animals.
