South Africa Tours & Holidays

The whole ‘country of contrasts’ thing has become a bit of a cliché

But what else do you call a place where (in a three-week period) you could happily slalom between penguins waddling on the Cape and lions stalking the bushveld, cinematic coastal switchbacks and burnt Kalahari sand, the oldest wine industry outside Europe and cutting-edge fusion cuisine? ‘Contrast’, doesn’t really do South Africa justice. The beauty of a South Africa tour (besides the peace of mind that comes with an expert local guide) is being able to fit so much Africa into so little time. From the Stellenbosch winelands to Kruger, Blyde River and beyond, this is a place where you can take your safari with a side of espresso.

Kruger to Vic Falls

Fiona · Traveled April 2023
Our first trip to Africa, saw lots of wild life, climbed a gorge, saw the most spectacular sunset over the Salt Pans and had the best rain shower every at Victoria Falls. Intrepid beat my expectations once again.

Premium Southern Africa

Claire · Traveled April 2023
What a trip. Trip of a lifetime!!! This trip truly exceeded my expectations. Apart from Chobe Lodge (a bit outdated) I have nothing negative to say. Our guide Admore was awesome, funny and so knowledgable. I wish I could do this trip all over again!
