South Africa. A World in One Country.
Destinations / South Africa
South Africa offers an easy combination of wildlife, landscapes, food and culture, making it particularly rewarding for a first safari or a longer African journey. Explore Cape Town and the Winelands, head into the bush for exceptional game viewing in Kruger or Madikwe, or travel north to the wide-open landscapes of the Kalahari. Each region brings a different side of the country to the experience.
South Africa’s essential destinations
Cape Town
A beautiful city framed by mountain and sea, Cape Town combines striking landscapes with excellent food, wine, culture and easy access to the Cape Peninsula.
The Cape Winelands
Just beyond Cape Town, the Winelands combine beautiful mountain scenery with historic estates, exceptional wines and a relaxed food-and-wine culture.
Greater Kruger
One of Africa’s great wildlife destinations, Kruger offers diverse habitats, abundant game and the chance to see the Big Five across a vast protected wilderness.
The Kalahari
The vast Kalahari landscape offers something quite different, with red sands, open plains and remarkable desert-adapted wildlife. Tswalu provides an immersive way to experience this remote wilderness.
Madikwe
A malaria-free reserve near Johannesburg, Madikwe offers excellent Big Five viewing across varied bushveld, making it well-suited to shorter safari itineraries.
