Tour Outline

You begin with 4 nights in Cape Town.  This is ideal for you to explore the sights and sounds of the city centre. Whilst here, you enjoying a walking tour of the city including a trip up the cable car to Table Mountain, a visit to the Uthando townships projects and a scenic tour of the Cape Peninsula. Plus there's some free time when you can explore the waterfront and the street markets of Greenmarket Square.

Next you head to South Africa's foremost safari destination, the Kruger National Park. You spend 3 nights on safari in the renowned Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve. Then you head to Johannesburg, the commercial capital of South Africa for 2 nights. Many people have pre-conceived ideas about Johannesburg. So it's good to see it for yourself and make your own mind up. Here again, you have a choice of tours. Most people opt for a full day tour of Soweto, the Apartheid Museum and the city highlights.

Then you fly up to Victoria Falls. Here you enjoy the majesty of the Falls as well as a sunset cruise and a traditional African dinner at The Boma, and an optional Township lunch. Plus there's also time to enjoy various optional excursions.
