Cape Town
Welcome to Africa’s most beautiful city! Surrounded by majestic mountains and twinkling blue sea, Cape Town is crammed with enough gorgeous natural attractions and fascinating cultural sights to keep you occupied for weeks. Take your time to discover this wonderful city, from the colourful blooms of Kirstenbosch Botanical gardens, to the infamous prison on Robben Island, all set against the dramatic backdrop of Table Mountain, which you can ascend as part of your Table Mountain and City tour.
4* The Commodore Hotel
Table Mountain & City tour & a Robben Island tour
Stellenbosch
Drive to elegant Stellenbosch and take a look around the town, admiring the pretty historical buildings and sun-dappled streets, and perhaps call in at the Botanical Gardens. The town is impossibly pretty, but what you’re really here for is the wine. Head out into the surrounding mountains and visit a selection of vineyards to learn about wine production and sample the sauvignons and cabernets, then stop for a tasty gourmet lunch at one of the winery restaurants.
4* The Spier Hotel
Kruger National Park
Catch your flight to Kruger National Park, location for your safari adventure. Head into the bush on a guided game drive and see what you can find in one of the most diverse, wildlife-rich areas in Africa. Home to all the Big Five – lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino and elephant – as well as wild dog and over 300 species of birds, Kruger National Park has an incredible array of game, just waiting to be discovered.
