Overview

Cape Town * Kruger (Timbavati Game Reserve) * Johannesburg * Victoria Falls

This 13 night Southern Africa Culture & Wildlife guided safari tour (Premier or Luxury) is ideal for those who are keen to get a well-rounded perspective on Southern Africa. Not just the scenic highlights and stunning game-viewing. But also an insight into its history, culture and how various groups within society live. Overall it is an immensely enjoyable safari tour.

You begin with 4 nights in Cape Town.  This is ideal for you to explore the sights and sounds of the city centre. Whilst in Cape Town, you enjoying a walking tour of the city, a visit to the Uthando townships projects and a scenic tour of the Cape Peninsula. There is also some free time when you can head up Table Mountain by cable car. Or explore the waterfront and the street markets of Greenmarket Square. We've also included a fantastic Foodie tour in the Winelands as well as a visit to the wine estates and towns of the Cape Winelands

Next you head to South Africa's foremost safari destination, the Kruger National Park. You spend 3 nights on safari in the renowned Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve. Then you head to Johannesburg, the commercial capital of South Africa for 2 nights. Many people have pre-conceived ideas about Johannesburg. So its good to see it for yourself and make your own mind up. Here again, you have a choice of tours. Most people opt for a full day tour of Soweto, the Apartheid Museum and the city highlights. (But you can also visit the Cradle of Humankind instead combining this either the Apartheid Museum OR Soweto).

Finally you fly up to Victoria Falls. Here you enjoy the majesty of the Falls as well as a sunset cruise and a traditional African dinner at The Boma, and an optional Township lunch. There's also time to enjoy various optional excursions.

We now offer it at two different price points. The main price is Premier and we show an Upgrade price as well.
