Holidays in South Africa are a great way to get a taste of what Africa has to offer. Arrive at OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, take a short flight to a private game reserve or Kruger National Park and check into an African tented camp, self-catering facility or luxury lodge.

Explore the abundance of wildlife, including the “Big Five” (rhino, elephant, buffalo, lion and leopard), unique terrain and landscapes for a few days. Listen to lions roar at night, the hippo moans in the mornings and the lovely sounds of the birds singing, all whilst enjoying great cuisine and friendly hospitality.

After a few days of safari, guided, non-guided or self-drive, head back to OR Tambo for a flight to the scenic Cape Town. Once in Cape Town, the options are limitless, from historic architecture, modern and local cuisine, trendy bars and nightlife, climbing the famous Lion’s Head or indulging in the views from Table Mountain. Scenic drives along the coast past many Blue Flag beaches, stopping off at various museums, and viewing wildlife such as the African Penguin at Boulders Beach.

You can spend many days in Cape Town, action packed or relaxing, and once you have seen the sites, head to the majestic winelands. Day trips from Cape Town is a great option, or alternatively book into a modern, chic, or historic guest house, hotel, or lodge amongst the winelands. Savour delicious meals and of course tasting the many varieties of wines at each wine estate you encounter. There are hundreds of wine estates to choose from, from old rustic quaint wineries, to modern. The picturesque town of Stellenbosch is a must see, not to mention the famous Franschhoek. Smaller wine towns are also an option, a few inland and others coastal.
