Begin your trip to Africa with a tour of Cape Town, Table Mountain, the Cape Peninsula and the Cape Winelands. Leaving the Cape Town region you will have a completely different South African experience as you go on safari in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve, adjacent to Kreuger National Park. Before your tour ends you will spend the final days exploring the magnificent Victoria Falls from Zambia.

In Cape Town, your days will be spent exploring the culture and history of the city and its surroundings. You will also engage in a full day tour of the Cape Peninsula, which involves stunning views, long golden beaches, the jackass penguin colony, and the Cape of Good Hope – Africa’s most southwestern point. Your final day will be spent in the winelands, north of Cape Town, touring the many vineyards and wineries that are making South African wines some of the most popular in the world.
Following Cape Town, you will fly to Nelspruit, where you will be transferred to your lodge within the private Sabi Sands Game Reserve, which is adjacent to Kruger National Park. For the next several days, you will engage in daily game drives of the area, which is arguably one of the premier private reserves in the country.

As your time in South Africa ends, you will fly to Livingstone, Zambia. This is where you will be based out of to explore Victoria Falls – one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Here, there are many adrenaline sports from zip lines and bungee jumping, to white water rafting, surfing and kayaking.

Guests are able to get in close contact with Africa's most exciting wildlife species, and are presented with unparalleled photographic opportunities. Early morning game drive heads out as the sun rises and as the bush stirs to life. The ranger and tracker teams search for animals by tracking their spoor, and by listening for the tell-tale signs of activity. The middle of the day is free to relax at the hotel. Enjoy a guided bush walk with an experienced ranger to feel the pulse of the Africa under your feet and witness the bush a close quarters. The bush has its own language, and it is fascinating to watch those who possess the tools to encode it. No two bush walks are the same. Late afternoon game drive commences as the sun burns its way towards the horizon. The animals are now getting more active, many preparing for the great hunt after dark. After sundowners, the drive continues with the aid of powerful spotlights which reveal nocturnal species in another world. On average, approximately 6 hours of game drives per day.

Another Safari day starting with morning game drive, followed by free time and late afternoon game drive. Each day will differ in the animals that may be near or ask your tracker to search out animals which you may have not seen yet.

You may be lucky enough to witness lions heading off on a hunt or elephants silhouetted before the vibrant colors of the sunset.
