Southern Africa's Most Popular Destinations
Spellbinding deserts and enchanted forests; endless plains and intimate lagoons; snow-capped mountains and sub-tropical beaches: southern Africa is an astonishing medley of contrasts and experiences. Explore the region's most popular attractions, choose your favourites and contact us for your tailor-made itinerary and quote.
Etosha
Etosha is one of Africa's great game parks. With 114 species of mammal and 340 species of bird you are sure to see a great variety of wildlife on your safari.Sossusvlei
A visit to the Namib-Naukluft Park usually means you are going to Sossusvlei by way of Sesriem. And with good cause as this is the start of the Great Sand Sea and the classic larger-than-life dunes that meet everyone's notion of a desert.Victoria Falls
A Natural Wonder of the World, Victoria Falls is an awe-inspiring spectacle of nature's power and beauty.Okavango Delta
Crammed with every conceivable species of bird and beast, the delta is an Eden of excess offering amazing game viewing and birding in a scenic and tranquil African wilderness. The quintessential delta experience: gliding in silence through the waterways on an African-style gondola carved from a single tree.Cape Town
Cape Town is one of the world's favourite holiday destinations. With pristine beaches, a buzzing café culture, great restaurants, a working harbour, unique nature reserves and suburban vineyards there is much to enjoy.Chobe
Chobe National Park has one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Africa. You can barely blow your nose without attracting the attention of several ear-twitching, tail-swishing, nostril-flaring, hoof-stomping herbivores.Damaraland
Damaraland features vast khaki plains, sheer rocky mountains and incredible desert-adapted wildlife. Track rhino and desert elephant, explore the rugged land or sit back and enjoy the dramatic scenery.Kruger
Kruger. Tucked away in the far north east of the country. It became South Africa's first national park in 1926. It was a slow start. In the first year only three cars turned up. Now it’s one of the largest game reserves in Africa. Romance, adventure, luxury you can pretty much have the type of trip you’re in the mood for.Garden Route
Packed with an assortment of attractions from family beaches, charming seaside towns, whale watching, nature reserves, forests, fynbos and the Karoo hinterland, the Garden Route is made for relaxing holidays.Mana Pools
Mana Pools National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site on the Zambezi River in northern Zimbabwe and one of the best game viewing destinations in Africa.South Luangwa
Synonymous with walking safaris and exceptional game viewing, the South Luangwa National Park is Zambia's best, and indeed one of Africa's best, game parks.Fish River Canyon
The major attraction in the southern-most reaches of Namibia is the Fish River Canyon. One of the largest in the world, the canyon proper is about 60km long, up to 8km wide, and 550m at its deepest.About Us
