About On-Line Safari Tours
At On-Line Safari Tours, we create unforgettable safari adventures for small groups looking to explore the real Africa. From the famous Kruger National Park to the hidden gems of the Klaserie reserve, we take you off the beaten path and into the heart of the wild. With no fences between you and the animals, every day brings something new and exciting. Our private access means you’ll enjoy a more personal, peaceful safari — no crowds, just you and the wilderness. It’s the perfect way to experience Africa’s raw, natural beauty up close.
