There’s something about summer in the Kruger that feels like a fresh beginning.
The scent of rain on warm earth, the rhythm of wildlife returning to life, and the quiet hum of possibility that fills the air.
This season, we invite you to experience it for yourself with our Hello Summer offer – an opportunity to walk in the footsteps of history, rest above the flowing Sabie River, and rediscover the wonder of Africa from a place like no other.
Perched on the historic Selati Bridge, Kruger Shalati: The Train on the Bridge was recently honoured with two MICHELIN Keys – a first for Africa – and named by Lonely Planet as a “Unique Stay” for 2026. These accolades celebrate what our guests already know: that this is not simply a place to stay, but a story to be lived.
