Kruger National Park: Re-opening of restaurants/take-aways delayed!

South African National Parks (SANParks) announced in October 2013 that some restaurants and take-aways in some of Kruger National Park's rest camps will get new operators. The re-opening of the new restaurants was planned to take place between March and May 2014. Due to a larger extent of refurbishment to what was expected, the initial re-opening schedule is currently not on-time and has therefore been revised.
