Ancient Egypt tours and vacations allow you to experience the beauty and splendor of the land of the Pharaohs. They include tours to the Great Pyramids, Sphinx as well as romantic cruise along the lovely River Nile, along with exploration of the cities of Cairo and Alexandria.

The largest main camp is Skukuza in the South. It offers a combination of bungalows and tents, has a restaurant overlooking the river (which is a non-negligible advantage), and its own shop for curios and groceries.

The Burchell's zebra are found in the park. Warthogs are abundant. Look out for the flightless dung beetle on the road in the Addo Elephant National Park. The beetles are only seen when it is not too hot and play an important role in recycling elepant dung.
