South Africa
South Africa covers more ground than any other single destination we offer — Cape Town's mountains and coastline at one end, Kruger National Park's Big Five safari country at the other, with the Winelands and Garden Route in between.
South Africa covers more ground than any other single destination we offer — Cape Town's mountains and coastline at one end, Kruger National Park's Big Five safari country at the other, with the Winelands and Garden Route in between.
It's a strong fit for travelers who want a safari alongside a proper city and food scene, or for a honeymoon that mixes wildlife with wine.
Cape Town and Kruger are roughly a 2-hour flight apart — most itineraries fly rather than drive between them.
November–March is Cape Town's warm, dry summer; May–September is malaria-free winter in Kruger with excellent game viewing.
A self-drive is possible in Kruger, but a guided lodge stay generally means better sightings.
The Garden Route makes a scenic multi-day drive if time allows between Cape Town and the eastern parks.
Table Mountain
Cape Town's flat-topped landmark, reachable by cable car or a half-day hike.
Kruger National Park
One of Africa's great Big Five safari destinations, with excellent lodge infrastructure.
Cape Winelands
Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, an easy day trip from Cape Town.
Boulders Beach
A colony of African penguins on a beach just outside Cape Town.
