Magic of South Africa 11 nights

Our private 11 night tour is at a relaxed pace giving you time to savour each area. You begin in Cape Town, meander along the Garden Route to the Eastern Cape game reserves. Fly to Kruger, enjoy the Blyde River Canyon region and end with a Big Five safari for 3 nights.

Overview

Cape Town * Little Karoo * Garden Route * Panorama Escarpment * Greater Kruger Park - Timbavati Game ReserveΒ 

This guided safari journey reveals South Africa’s most captivating contrasts: Β from cosmopolitan Cape Town to the forest, lakes and coast of the Garden Route, finishing with a classic Big Five safari in a Kruger private reserve.

Your adventure begins with four nights in Cape Town, exploring Table Mountain, the Cape Peninsula and the Winelands before travelling privately along the Garden Route, with a night in the Little Karoo followed by two nights at the fynbos-covered coastline. We include three days of touring here. From George, you fly to the Kruger region for a memorable three-night safari in a private reserve, Timbavati Game Reserve, part of the greater Kruger Park; a fitting finale to an experience rich in scenery, wildlife and culture.

Tailor This Safari

As a privately guided journey, this itinerary can be customised in many ways: upgrade selected accommodation. Personally I would recommend another night in the Garden Route, especially in the Summer months. Or another night on safari, if you have time. Contact us for a tailormade quote.

Good to Know
  • We have deliberately presented the itinerary at two distinct comfort levels: the base price features premier accommodation with scheduled touring in Cape Town and private guiding beyond the city; ensuring specialist regional knowledge throughout. This probably shows our starting point for guided tours in South Africa.
  • The second upgrade option offering elevated lodges and private touring throughout. As with all Cedarberg Africa sample journeys, this is an inspirational starting point that can
  • Our price below is based on 2 people. More favourable pricing for four or more guests is available on request.
  • Note: You do not have the same guide throughout your stay, with one guide in the Cape and another guide along the Garden Route.
