South Africa

We highly recommend South Africa as a safari destination. Not only is it home to Southern Africa's most diverse wilderness area - the Kruger National Park - but there are also a wealth of alternative safari destinations to choose from. 


The most popular South Africa safari areas include the Kruger National Park and the private game reserves which form part of it, like the Sabi Sand, Kapama and the Timbavati. The Eastern Cape also offers exceptional safaris at both the Addo Elephant National Park and Shamwari Private Game Reserve. The densely wooded Zululand can be experienced on safaris in Hluhluwe and Phinda. The malaria-free areas of northern South Africa, like Madikwe and Kgalagadi, have also become increasingly popular safari destinations in recent years. 


Or visit Cape Town, a coming together of cultures, cuisines and landscapes, there is nowhere quite like Cape Town, a singularly beautiful city and crowned by the magnificent Table Mountain National Park. A perfect starting point for a unique tour of South Africa's famous winelands.
