Cape Town

Cape Town, with its dramatic Table Mountain backdrop and location at the Cape of Good Hope where the Atlantic and Indian oceans meet, is one of Africa’s most beautiful cities and a key stop on any South Africa tour. Ride a cable car up Table Mountain and visit Robben Island, where liberation hero Nelson Mandela was once imprisoned. Cape Town is also near wineries and marine wildlife sanctuaries.

Family South Africa�s Garden Route and Safari

A magical holiday with so many amazing experiences, starting at Table Mountain with beautiful views to ending at Ado Elephant Park watching the wildlife. The coastal landscape is spectacular and the interior native forests are magical. Our accommodation was very good throughout, forming part of the holiday and not just a place to stay - watching out for monkeys raiding our kitchen! Rayno -our guide looked my family very well, arranging additional activities and great places to dine in the evening, which were very special. Thank you.

I would have preferred a stay in Knysna rather than Plettenberg Bay.

The Zululand and Kruger part of the trip was excellent. Wonderful sights and great animal watching.
