24 Photos from My Safari to Kruger National Park

"One highlight was the incredible Blyde River Canyon, which I found to be one of the largest canyons in the world, generally considered the largest “green” canyon because it is lush with flora, and is described as the second-largest canyon in Africa." - Matthew Kepnes

6 beautiful canyons you can hike around the world - SilverKris

"Celebrated as the largest green canyon on the planet, this landscape features a massive domed outcrop and the iconic Three Rondavels—rock formations resembling indigenous huts. Visitors can hike on trails of easy to moderate difficulty (hikes can be organised through Thaba Tsweni Lodge) or simply drive to scenic viewpoints and enjoy a picnic while taking in the vistas." - SilverKris

honestly one of the highlights of our trip! The views are absolutely breathtaking, from the cliffs to the deep green river. Nature at its best. What made it even better was our tour guide hilarious and full of energy! He kept us laughing the whole way while still dropping some cool facts about the area.

My second favourite stop on the Panaroma Route. The views around the time of golden hour for sunset are very spectacular. So peaceful and only a 5 min walk from the carpark. Down in the valley below is a lake. Apparently the Australian version of 'Im a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here' is filmed in the canyon below. Keep a look out for birds.

Unforgettable Experience! I recently took the Blyde River Canyon boat ride and was blown away by the breathtaking views and informative commentary! Our knowledgeable tour guide shared fascinating insights into the local history, wildlife, and landmarks. We spotted hippos adding an extra layer of excitement to the trip. The boat was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Staff were friendly, attentive, and ensured our safety. Tips for visitors: - Arrive early to secure prime seating - Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a camera

This place is as everyone stated. I saved an image for my profile pic I enjoyed it that much. It's a colorful, picturesque landscape that is also quite peaceful and relaxing. Toured it twice from above and then the river cruise. I did miss God's window due to intense fog. Make sure you check the weather conditions. Highly recommended.

It was stunning! Nice drive which we did as part of a tour and the famous spot with the entire overview is breath taking. In my view, better than Grand Canyon much greener and alive ;)

It is a very beautiful place and people must visit it. It's like mountains touching the sky. Will able to see all natural color in one place.
