Join us on a unforgettable 7 day adventure combining wilderness horse riding with an open vehicle Safari in the breathtaking Kruger National Park. The mountainous edges of South Africa's highlands are the most romantic places in the country - and now you have the chance to see this country of dreams.

Gallop with the Kaapsehoop wild horses that have roamed the mountains for the last hundred years in this historic gold mining territory. Then visit Kruger Park to search for the famous Big Five (Leopard, Lion, Elephant, Rhino, Buffalo).

Vula means “open” in the Zulu language and this describes the breathtaking openness of the Vulatours Kruger National Park experiences .

Vulatours offers an exciting combination of experiences - including tailormade Kruger National Park safaris in an Open Game Vehicle, and horse riding to see the wild Kaapsehoop horses, with panoramic views over the Barberton Valley.
