South Africa Safaris

Africa’s Europe.

The African Country that has it all.

Some of the finest game viewing on the continent, unspoiled beaches, traditional fishing villages, fine wines in mountain vineyards, world class restaurants, 18 hole championship golf courses and the sophisticated infrastructure making it easy to blend these diverse experiences: South Africa has it all.

For genuine exclusivity and truly sensational game viewing it is difficult to surpass the private reserves in Kruger National Park. The privacy of a Kruger private game reserve contrasts with the bustle of cosmopolitan Cape Town. Here you can taste some of the finest wines in the nearby vineyards, go whale watching and look out over the iconic Table Mountain.

And this wide land just keeps dishing up diversity and contrasts.

CAPE TOWN

SOUTH AFRICA

Nestled between the iconic Table Mountain and the shimmering Atlantic Ocean, is the vibrant and multicultural city of Cape Town, at the southern tip of Africa. Renowned for its exquisite natural beauty and rich history, with the majestic Table Mountain at it’s center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature. Visitors can hike to the summit for panoramic views of the city, take a cable car ride, or simply admire the mountain’s iconic silhouette.

Beyond Table Mountain, Cape Town boasts a wealth of attractions, including the vibrant V&A Waterfront, with its bustling markets, shops, and restaurants, as well as historic landmarks such as Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 years.

With its stunning beaches, world-class wineries, and bustling nightlife, Cape Town offers something for everyone, whether you’re seeking outdoor adventure, cultural immersion, or simply relaxation amidst breathtaking scenery.

CAPE WINELANDS

SOUTH AFRICA

Nestled amidst rolling hills and picturesque valleys, with a mountainous backdrop, is a premier wine-producing region renowned for its world-class wines, incredible landscapes, and rich cultural heritage. Located just a short drive from Cape Town, the Cape Winelands encompasses several historic towns, each offering its own unique charm and character.

Stellenbosch, the second oldest town in South Africa, is known for its Cape Dutch architecture, tree-lined streets, and prestigious wine estates.

Franschhoek, often referred to as the “food and wine capital” of South Africa, boasts a rich culinary heritage influenced by its French Huguenot settlers.

Paarl, with its imposing granite mountain backdrop, is famous for its award-winning Shiraz wines and scenic wine tours.

The Cape Winelands offers a truly immersive experience for wine enthusiasts and travelers seeking to indulge their senses amidst the beauty of the South African countryside.

KRUGER

SOUTH AFRICA

One of Africa’s largest and most iconic safari destinations, spanning over 19,000 square kilometers of wilderness, is the Kruger National Park.
