The Ultimate Safari & Cape Town Experience
An eight-day journey combining a Big Five safari in South Africa's premier game reserves with the scenic beauty and cultural richness of Cape Town.
Overview
This vast country is undoubtedly one of the most culturally and geographically diverse places on earth. Fondly known by locals as the 'Rainbow Nation', South Africa has 11 official languages and its multicultural inhabitants are influenced by a fascinating mix of cultures.
This 8-day itinerary explores the best of what South Africa offers - from magnificent hotels to one-of-a-kind game lodges in the best game viewing areas to pristine scenery and beaches in Cape Town. The perfect option for a first-timer's safari trip to Africa.
Your journey starts in Johannesburg before venturing to a bush lodge in one of South Africa's top game viewing areas, such as the Madikwe Game Reserve or Kruger National Park. Both are well known for Big Five sightings of lion, cheetah, elephant, rhino and buffalo.
On completion of your safari experience we leave the bush and travel to Cape Town. With its bustling harbour, world-class beaches, top-notch vineyards, and mountainous surroundings, Cape Town consistently captivates the hearts of all who visit.
