Cape Town * Sabi Sands (Kruger) * Bengerra Island Mozambique
This luxurious, relaxing 11-night romantic escape blends the best of Southern Africa: the coastal glamour of Cape Town, an exclusive safari in the Sabi Sands (Kruger). And ending with four dreamy nights on a pristine island in the Bazaruto Archipelago, off Mozambique, with its white sandy beaches and an azure blue sea.
Begin with four nights at the iconic Twelve Apostles Hotel & Spa, perfectly placed for exploring the city’s culture, coastline, and winelands. Then fly to the legendary Sabi Sands for three nights at Leopard Hills Game Lodge, where exceptional wildlife encounters unfold on every game drive. Conclude with Benguerra Island, arriving via helicopter transfer from Vilanculos. At Azura Marlin Lodge, days drift by in a haze of warm ocean breezes, white sands, and exceptional snorkelling and marine life.

Consider an overnight prior to Mozambique?
Because flights from Kruger Airport to Vilanculos depart in the morning, you may have to miss, or try to shorten, your final game drive. We recommend extending to a 12-night trip. With the extra night, enjoy a full morning game drive, followed by a scenic tour of the Blyde River Canyon and the Gorge Lift Experience, before staying overnight in a comfortable country house hotel near the airport. A relaxed morning then sets the perfect tone for your island journey.

Pared Back/Premier Option
For a more streamlined variation, we also price an option using the V&A Hotel in the Waterfront and Idube Game Lodge in the Sabi Sands, while keeping the wonderfully intimate Azura Marlin Lodge. We can also discuss other options like Anantara Bazaruuto Lodge.
Tailor-make this Safari & Beach itinerary
As with most of our sample journeys, this romantic escape can be adapted entirely to your style; from selecting a different game lodge, or choosing a suite upgrade on Benguerra, to shaping your days in Cape Town around your interests. We’ve included two day of classic touring in Cape Town, but these can easily be replaced with active adventures (hiking or mountain biking), foodie tours, contemporary arts tours, or fascinating historical walk. If you prefer complete independence, car rental is also an option. Ask us for our Cape Town LookBook with the various options available.
Your trip. Your pace. Your way.
