The best of South Africa in ten days: Cape Town, the Winelands, then Kruger and the Sabi Sand, in five of the country’s finest lodges.
This is South Africa at its most complete and most comfortable. You begin in Cape Town at Ellerman House, move to Delaire Graff in the Winelands, and then fly to the bush for two nights at Jock Safari Lodge in Kruger and three at Londolozi in the Sabi Sand.
Every lodge is among the best in its area, a private guide and driver are with you in Cape Town, and the flights are arranged so the trip flows from the city to the bush.

Prices are per person, in US dollars, and depend on the number of travellers sharing the vehicle and guide. They are sample rates for planning and will be confirmed when you enquire, as lodge and permit prices change each year. The flights depend on the airline schedule and will be confirmed when you enquire. Sightings of any single species cannot be guaranteed.
Best time for this trip May to Mar
Pack light, neutral colours for game drives, a warm fleece for early mornings, a sun hat, good sunscreen and insect repellent. Binoculars are provided in the vehicle, but bring your own if you are a keen birder or photographer. Light aircraft have a soft-bag limit of 15 kg per person including hand luggage, so leave the hard suitcases at home.
