Hi there, yes, as long as you take it easy I think you should be fine. There might be a few spots where you need to take it pretty slowly.

I mean to stay at Tlopi camp and just drive around a bit? Thanks!

The one monkey who came once a day was a little aggressive but he gave up quickly.

It’s my favourite San park. I’m glad you weren’t harassed by the vervet monkeys they can be quite a nuisance in the open kitchen. Now I want to go back…
Oh and the walking safaris are highly recommended. The rangers are shared with Welgevonden and highly knowledgable.

I’ll bet I read that but just forgot. I will go back and find it now!

It was quite an adventure. I’ve got the whole story on my blog. 😀

Oh yes, I hadn’t thought of that. I also went to Welgevonden once and it was amazing.

I didn’t see elephants near the lake (but friends did see a lot !). We did amazing walking game safaris (with armed rangers !).
The park is huge but with few roads given the size of the park so it’s not so easy to spot wildlife when driving your own vehicle. There are for sure lot of animals but they have tens of thousands of hectares to roam far away from the car tracks. You can see much more easily animals in the private part of the park (Welgevonden reserve) which is fantastic but more expensive as you have only rather upmarket lodges. Welgevonden is one of my favourite game reserve in South Africa.
