American staying in Kruger. Let me say we had a blast and loved our stay and will post glowing reviews of Shishangeni Lodge, specifically Shonga.

Krugerpark.co ran by Siyabona Africa appeared to be a park website to us. We didnt realize they are a booking agent. They were certainly helpful so dont get me wrong. I just would have appreciated knowing they're a booking company and add a fee. For example 1 night at Skukuza lodge thru them was $100 usd more or so i was led to belive when asking reception directly what nightly rate is.

Just a warning because it isnt stated on their website.

Edit. I dont think its 100 usd more. Actually using hotel website, appears to be 1000 rand or 65 ish usd. It just seems to be how ppl are exploited for lack of better words. Example. Night drive at concession in hotel lobby, 850 rand per person. Going over to the Skukuza center and booking...350 rand per. This places gives the mafia a run for its money :)
