Catherine Hofmeyr – Essential Kruger, page 70 With two-million hectares to choose from, you need to be either retired with a trust fund or very picky in Kruger. There’s a quintessential route linking Skukuza, Satara and Lower Sabie that everyone should do – and then do again and again… Harriet Nimmo – Alternative Kruger, page 82 Who heads up the park’s 700-plus rangers? Who researches and helps threatened species to ensure their survival? And who’s on call to treat humans? Zoologist Harriet meets five dedicated Kruger personalities. Keri Harvey – Mozambique, page 88 Our neighbour is on the road to restoring its wildlife heritage. We went on a recce to Zinave National Park and privately owned Sábiè Game Park, both of which are setting the pace for wildlife conservation. They have an abundance of game and are still off the regular tourist route, so you’ll get a true wilderness experience with no cars in sight. Allison Foat – Durch Barging, page 96 For laid-back leisure at its best, exploring Holland’s waterways is a surprisingly affordable European holiday for wanderlusting South Africans and Allison rounds up a group of friends to go boating.
