Beautiful beaches, vibrant cities (including Cape Town, a city surrounded by sea and mountain), wildlife parks, deserts, colourful cultures and a human history dating back millions of years; South Africa has it all. The only problem you might have is choosing what to fit into your itinerary, but we have a few recommendations. There's the famous Garden Route on the southern coast, the towering Drakensberg Mountains, the Wild Coast of Kwa-Zulu Natal, the wildlife-rich Kruger National Park, and the home of the Hominid: the Cradle of Humankind just outside Johannesburg. Get involved in the planning of your own South Africa tour online. Mix and match lodges to create a safari that suits your style and budget.

With so much to do and see, planning a South Africa tour can be daunting, but our safari experts will help you create and refine your trip until you’re completely happy.
