Itinerary overview
Day 1
Arrival in Cape Town
Welcome to South Africa. Upon arrival in Cape Town, you’ll transfer to your hotel, located in the lively Green Point suburb. This will be your base for the next three nights. The afternoon is free to relax by the pool or take a stroll along the V&A Waterfront famous for its shops and restaurants. Alternatively get to know your surroundings on an optional city walking tour or dramatic sunset cruise on a vintage sailboat. Overnight at Garden Court Victoria Junction.
Day 2
Cape Town
Set dramatically beneath iconic Table Mountain, Cape Town effortlessly blends modern city life with spectacular scenery and outdoor living. Here you'll experience a vibrant fusion of Dutch, French, English, Xhosa, Malay and Afrikaner cultures, and be greeted as a friend rather than a travaller. Let your exploration be steered by your own personal interests, from extraordinary art galleries to eye-opening museums, from coffee shops to local microbreweries. Choose from a wealth of local optional experiences, like the My Cape Town City Tour or don retro leather jackets, goggles, bandanas and helmets to whizz along the Cape Peninsula in a 1950's sidecar. For the ultimate overview of the city, take to the skies on the Three Bays Helicopter tour. Overnight at Garden Court Victoria Junction.
Day 3
Cape Town
Today, continue to soak up the lively local scene. Either in the city itself or take a short bus or taxi ride along the sensational coastline where you'll find some of the best beaches in the world. Try Camps' Bay for people watching, Clifton's tiny 1st to 4th numbered beaches or Muizenberg for a surfing vibe. The optional My Cape Peninsula tour offers an unrivalled coastal overview, including Cape Point and Chapman's Peak Drive. Or dig deeper into the regions culture and history on the optional Walk to Freedom tour, exploring the local township communities and visiting Nelson Mandela's former prison cell on Robben Island. The historic Company Gardens or Kristenbosch Botanical gardens are also a highlight for many guests. Overnight at Garden Court Victoria Junction.
Day 4
Cape Town & Winelands
After breakfast, transfer to the beautiful winelands of the Western Cape. Around an hour outside Cape Town, you'll spend the next two nights at the heart of South Africa's viniculture. You can explore the hundreds of cellar doors for wine tasting on your own, and we've included a hop-on hop-off Franschhoek Wine Tram experience to travel between the vineyards, wine tasting along the way. Simply relax and drink in the breathtaking scenery of the Franschhoek Valley. Overnight at Le Franschhloek Hotel & Spa.
Day 5
Winelands
The day is your own to further explore the scenic valleys of the Cape Winelands. Perhaps join a guided cycling tour of the local vineyards, or explore further afield with some of Stellenbosch's foodie delights. A feast for the eyes and the tastebuds. Dine in your hotel or one of the region's many exemplary restaurants. Overnight at Le Franschhloek Hotel & Spa.
Day 6
Cape Town & Makalali Game Reserve
Transfer to the airport for your flight to Hoedspruit. On arrival, a transfer will take you to your lodge in the Greater Makalali Reserve, your home for the next three nights. There's enough time for an afternoon game drive should you wish to explore the 26,000 hectares of private reserve. You're in the hands of expert rangers who not only help you spot some extraordinary wildlife but offer interpretations of the ecosystems too. Yes there's the Bug Five but also smaller fascinating creatures and abundant birdlife. Overnight at aha Makalali Main Lodge.
Day 7
Makalali Game Reserve
Spend the day in the great outdoors savouring every sighting and call of the wild. From an open-top safari vehicle you can absorb 360 views of the vast savannah. Your dedicated ranger is an expert tracker whose animal-spotting talents often lead to sightings of the Big Five as well as cheetah, spotted hyena and black rhino too. Back at the lodge, why not cap the day off relax around the pool and sip a cocktail alfresco under the fading African sky. Overnight at aha Makalali Main Lodge.
Day 8
Makalali Game Reserve
Rise early, enjoying steaming hot drinks and biscuits, before heading out on the morning game drive in the bushveld. Return to the lodge for breakfast, with time to relax at leisure. Head out once again mid-afternoon to spot more game with your expert rangers. Overnight at aha Makalali Main Lodge.
Day 9
Makalali Game Reserve & Johannesburg
Transfer back to Hoedspruit for your flight to Johannesburg. You can connect to flights home from here tonight if you wish, but if you are looking to extend your holiday to Mauritius then an overnight in Jozi (as the locals call it) is necessary. Your hotel is only a 5-minute transfer from the airport with all the bells and whistles to help you rejuvenate. Stretch your legs doing laps in the swimming pool or head into the city for a cultural injection on the My Jo'burg - Newtown, Maboneng and Apartheid Museum tour. Or step back further in time to the very beginning of our species on the My Jo'burg Cradle of Humankind tour where you can inspect fossils over two-million-years old. Overnight at Peermint D'oreale Grande.
