Good morning!
It looks like “The Kylie Show” this week! Her current sightings:
“We had an another awesome drive this morning (Thu). Started off slow with us seeing some impala and bushbuck, and then all of a sudden within 100m of each other we saw 3 wild dogs running down the road, 3 lionesses and 1 big male lion just sunning themselves on a big rock! It was amazing to have two great predators so close together!
We also saw some hippo out of the water, nyala bull, crocodile, baboons, huge buffalo bulls, 5 kudu bulls together, and a duiker.

It is always nice to get such great feedback!
Dear Robert,
We would just like to let you know that we had a fantastic time on our Kruger Safari, the whole experience was well organised and very professional from start to finish.
We would like to express our sincere thanks to all your team we met at the Outlook Lodge and in the Sukuza Camp. With special thanks to Francois, Jonathan and Kylie, but especially Mike, our guide who gave us the most memorable holiday we could have experienced in Kruger. His knowledge was outstanding and he showed true commitment and passion for his job.

Wow! It seems to be “The week of the Kill!”
Kylie’s guests have been spoiled for life with a brilliant first hour or so’s game viewing, on their very first day of safari, still en-route to camp!

Hielke’s safari is continuing in a good vein of form with brilliant sightings!
He says: “Found a new hyena den and they were all lying outside, then found a rhino and some elephant. Then the most amazing thing, saw some lionesses hunt and catch an impala an full view. What a great sighting!”
Although most of us feel sorry for the poor impala, it is a dream for anyone to see an actual kill! Especially when we think of the cute little lion cubs who may starve to death if their mother doesn’t catch anything!

Our safaris are hectic at the moment & Hielke is already back in the Park!
His trip started off well with sightings including loads of elephant & giraffe. They also found some really big kudus and several zebra. Their day was made with a wild dog sighting! (Not the best picture ever, but evidence none the less!)
A rare wild dog sighting!
