Sound familiar?

You've been saying “we should do Kruger” for two years.

🚗

No 4x4

You want to go but you don't own the right vehicle. A Jimny rental is expensive and complicated to set up for camping.

🏕

No trailer

Self-catering in Kruger sounds great until you price up a camping trailer and caravan rental. It adds up fast.

👥

No crew

Your people want to come but five friends with five different schedules have never once landed on a shared date.

🗺

No plan

The logistics of booking gates, campsites, activity slots, and permits for a first Kruger trip are genuinely confusing.

We built the thing that removes every excuse.

Vehicle sorted. Trailer delivered and set up. Campsites, gates, and activity slots pre-booked. Your only job is to show up with a backpack.

How it works

Self-drive Kruger without owning anything.

01

Pay a R2,500 deposit to lock your date

The Escape is 7-9 days. The Ultimate is 10-14. Pay the rest monthly, interest-free.

02

Kitted Africa loads your vehicle

A Suzuki Jimny 4x4 or Camping Van, fully loaded with sleeping gear, a fridge, a coffee kit, and all the cables.

03

Bru Bru sets up your trailer at camp

Your off-road caravan is delivered and set up at your Kruger campsite before you arrive. Shower, kitchen, and a real bed, ready.

04

Collect your vehicle and drive

No planning left. All campsites and activity slots are pre-booked. You follow the guide, your crew follows you.

What they said when they got back.

★★★★★

The Jimny was incredible. We found a pride of lions on day two just driving around. Nobody told us where to go.

Solo traveller. By night one I had a crew. These are now my people. Booked the Ultimate for next year.

★★★★★

Bru Bru had the trailer set up when we arrived. Kettle was already out. That kind of detail is what separates a good trip from a great one.
