• Cape Town: No matter what time of year you choose to visit, you’re guaranteed to have an incredible trip. Traditionally, the best time to go on safari in Africa is over the non-summer months – March to October. The vegetation is not as dense and wildlife come to waterholes to drink during the dry winter months. But the best time to visit Cape Town is in the summer! So you could say that it’s an all-year trip that’s great for both wildlife and adventure lovers.
• Cape Town: Pretty darn good. The Cape, Safari & Falls trip has multiple game drives on offer (some of which are included)! These will be in the ‘Big 5’ mega Game Reserves of Kruger and Chobe (both are the size of a small country). On top of that, we’ll go on a walking safari close to the Victoria Falls. But it doesn’t end there.   A riverside boat cruise or two in the National Park will give us direct views to spot hippos, crocs and other wildlife coming down to drink. Will you get your wildlife fix? We definitely think so.
• Cape Town: The question should be – what transport don’t we use on this trip? Coaches in Cape Town, safari trucks in Kruger, minivans for airport transfers, open-top safari jeeps, flights to and from Johannesburg with the chance to enjoy boat and helicopter rides. 
• Cape Town: Only the most visited tourist attraction in the whole of Africa! That’s right. In Cape Town, we’ll stay at the legendary V&A Waterfront. You’ll have access to a myriad of shops, bars, food markets, attractions and restaurants (all within 500m of our hotel). In Kruger and Chobe, we’re doing something special. We won’t stay outside the park (where all the hotels are located). Instead, we’ll spend our nights in the park, LITERALLY glamping under the stars, around a fire. If you’re lucky, you might even hear the rush of the river with hippos calling, lions roaring and hyenas whooping all around us. Now that’s a true African wildlife experience.   In Victoria Falls, we’ll either stay on the Zambezi River in Zambia or within Victoria Falls town in Zimbabwe. Both are within view of the spray from the falls (plus the wildlife that roam freely through the towns).  
• Chobe National Park: As the name suggests, a Special Stay ain’t your ordinary accommodation – it’s much more than that. Think of it as an experience in its own right. On this trip, you’ll be able to camp under the stars (all while being surrounded by wildlife) at your Special Stay.
• Amboseli: Nope, you’re all good! All equipment (tents, sleeping bags, etc) will be provided for you.
• Amboseli: You don’t have to. Your road crew will set up camp, cook meals, and clean up afterwards – but you’re always welcome to help!
• Amboseli: You’ll have access to proper bathrooms with real toilets, hot showers and everything you need – just shared with the crew.

• Cape Town: Stroll around the scenic harbour and enjoy some Insta-worthy views, at South Africa’s most-visited attraction. 
• Cape Town: Cable the Table! Take a scenic ride to the top of one of the ‘New Seven Wonders of Nature’ for 360° views of Cape Town. 
• Cape Town: Bo-Kaap. The City Centre. V&A Waterfront. This tour takes in all the historical sites & attractions of the Mother City.  
• Kruger: Our Special Stay is located right inside one of Africa’s most famous Wildlife Reserves (that’s also within one of its most popular Main Camps – Lower Sabie!). The camp is perched on the banks of the incredible Sabie River with a shop, swimming pool and riverside restaurant, where you can to look out for wildlife coming down to drink. Our exclusive camp comprises of canvas dome tents with stretchers, mattresses, linen, towels and charging outlets. Plus, there’s a communal firepit to sit around late into the night, gazing at the stars and listening to the calls of nocturnal animals.
• Kruger National Park: We’ll head into Kruger National Park, one of the most famous wildlife parks in the whole of Africa, to witness wildlife in their natural habitat.
• Kruger National Park: Wanna know how K9 Dogs protect wildlife? Come meet one of our Rangers who’ll tell you all about the K9 Watchdog Project, their fight against poachers, and how your donations from the MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience helps them save Africa’s wildlife from extinction.
• Kruger National Park: Keep your eyes peeled and those binoculars close. We’re heading out to spot more magnificent wildlife (cross those fingers for rhino’s!) and stunning scenery with our last game drive as we say goodbye to Kruger.
• Victoria Falls: See the epic waterfall of your Insta dreams. Take a stroll along the edge and see this ‘the smoke that thunders’ in all its glory. 
   
• Chobe: Ready for a night you’ll never forget? Our Special Stay in Chobe is a serene camp that’s surrounded by nature. You’ll find dome tents with stretcher beds, linen and mattress pre-setup in our accommodation for the night. Plus, there’s a dining tent and fire to sit around late into the night under millions of stars. Note: Camping in Chobe is only available from April to October, the rest of the year will be at a lodge accommodation outside the park.
• Chobe: Coast along the banks of the Chobe River in search of thirsty wildlife coming down to drink. 
• Chobe: Be on the lookout for any wildlife we may have heard the night before! 

Join a locally guided township tour for insight into community life in Cape Town and the enduring effects of apartheid. The experience includes a lunch connected with the Amy Foundation.

Hearing local perspectives adds depth to the city’s better-known landmarks and scenery. It is an opportunity to learn about the people and histories behind contemporary Cape Town rather than viewing its neighbourhoods only from a distance. This optional experience costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Set out on a sunrise game drive in Kruger National Park, searching for wildlife in the cool early hours. Keep watch for predators that may still be active and for animals moving towards water.

Morning light and fresh tracks can make this a particularly engaging time to observe the bush, although no species can be guaranteed. The tour offers more than one opportunity to choose an early Kruger safari. Each optional drive costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Raft the Zambezi River near Victoria Falls for an active encounter with its powerful currents and rapids. Working with your rafting crew, experience the river from within the gorge rather than from its viewpoints.

The Zambezi’s conditions vary with seasonal water levels, which can affect rafting routes and availability. Steep gorge walls and fast-moving water give the outing its dramatic setting. This optional activity costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Cruise the Zambezi at sunset near Victoria Falls, with drinks included in the optional outing. Watch the river’s surface change colour as daylight fades over the banks.

The broad, calmer stretches above the falls provide a contrasting view of the Zambezi’s landscape. Keep an eye on the shoreline and water for wildlife, while allowing the evening light on the river to set the pace. This optional cruise costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Explore Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront with your group over a hosted walkabout dinner. This working harbour brings together historic docks, lively public spaces and views towards Table Mountain.

Meet your Trip Manager and fellow travellers while getting your bearings in one of the city’s best-known gathering places. The harbour setting and mountain backdrop make this a distinctive introduction to Cape Town.

Ride the cable car up Table Mountain for sweeping views across Cape Town, Table Bay and the Atlantic coastline. At the summit, take in the city’s remarkable position between sea and mountain.

The flat-topped massif forms part of Table Mountain National Park and is one of the Cape’s defining natural landmarks. Its changing light and, at times, a veil of cloud over the summit give every visit a different character.

Tour Cape Town’s key sights, including the city centre, the colourful streets of Bo-Kaap and the V&A Waterfront. See how the Mother City’s neighbourhoods sit beneath Table Mountain and beside its busy harbour.

This city orientation introduces the layers of Cape Town’s history, from its colonial-era centre to communities shaped by apartheid and its aftermath. Bo-Kaap’s brightly painted houses offer a vivid setting for learning about the area’s Cape Malay heritage.

Search for wildlife on a sunset game drive through Kruger National Park. Keep binoculars ready for elephants, antelope and other animals moving through the bush as daylight softens.

Kruger’s savanna, river corridors and woodland support an extraordinary range of species, including the Big Five. A drive towards Lower Sabie offers the chance to watch the landscape change in the evening light, though wildlife sightings are always unpredictable.

Stay inside Kruger National Park at the tour’s canvas-tent camp in Lower Sabie. Gather around the communal fire and listen for the sounds of the bush beneath a broad night sky.

The camp sits near the Sabie River, an important source of water for local wildlife. With beds and linen provided, this special stay combines practical comforts with the rare atmosphere of sleeping in one of Africa’s great wildlife reserves.

Meet a Kruger ranger to learn how the K9 Watchdog Project uses trained dogs in efforts to protect wildlife from poaching. Hear about the work behind conservation in a park known for its rhinos and other threatened species.

This MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® experience adds a human dimension to a Kruger visit. It offers a closer look at the people and dogs helping safeguard wildlife beyond what can be seen on a game drive.

Take another wildlife drive through Kruger National Park, scanning the bush for animals that may have remained hidden on earlier outings. Look across open grassland and among the trees for everything from antelope to predators.

Wild animals set their own pace, so a different route or time of day can reveal a different side of the park. Every sighting is shaped by chance, making careful observation part of the experience.

Walk along viewpoints at Victoria Falls to see the Zambezi River plunge into the gorge below. Feel the spray and hear the roar that gives the falls their local name, Mosi-oa-Tunya, meaning “the smoke that thunders”.

The falls stretch across the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia, with their appearance changing markedly with the river’s seasonal flow. Rising mist and thundering water make the scale of this natural landmark tangible.

Explore Chobe National Park on an included sunset game drive, watching for wildlife near the river as the light fades. The riverbank draws animals to drink and offers rewarding opportunities to observe the park’s celebrated elephants.

Chobe is especially known for its large elephant population, while other species move between woodland and water. Watching the riverside bush at dusk offers a different perspective from the park’s morning drive; sightings depend on wildlife movements.

Spend a night at a private bush camp in Chobe, with guides, cooks, pre-set dome tents and a communal fire. Listen for nocturnal calls while dining and settling in beneath the stars.

This special stay puts the sounds of the African bush at the heart of the experience. Camping is available from April to October; from October to March, travellers stay at a lodge instead, with Chobe sunset and sunrise game drives still included.

Head into Chobe National Park on a morning game drive as the bush comes to life. Watch for elephants and other animals moving through the landscape in the cooler early hours.

The park’s mix of river frontage and woodland provides habitat for a wide variety of wildlife. Early light across the African bush brings clear views of the terrain and another chance to spot species whose movements cannot be scheduled.

Cook alongside fellow travellers in a MasterChef-style Cape Town class combining food, drinks and music. Take part in preparing a meal rather than simply sitting down to one.

The shared kitchen setting makes local flavours and conversation part of the evening’s entertainment. It is a sociable way to experience Cape Town’s food culture and connect over what you create together. This optional class costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Follow the Cape Peninsula’s dramatic coastline, including the cliffs of Chapman’s Peak, on an excursion towards Cape Point. Visit Boulders Beach to observe its colony of African penguins.

The route brings together Atlantic views, rugged headlands and one of the region’s most distinctive wildlife encounters. Cape Point lies near the peninsula’s southern tip, while penguins among Boulders Beach’s granite coves show another side of the Cape. This optional excursion costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Kayak near Boulders Beach for a water-level perspective on the Cape Peninsula’s sheltered coastline and its African penguin colony. Paddling offers a more active way to explore the area than viewing it from shore.

The beach’s rounded granite boulders shelter coves used by this rare mainland penguin colony. Wildlife remains wild, so penguin encounters depend on where the birds choose to be. This optional activity costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Taste South African wines during an optional Cape excursion, with scenic views adding to the occasion. Compare pours and get a sense of the flavours produced in the region around Cape Town.

The Cape has a winemaking tradition dating back to the 17th century, shaped by varied soils and maritime influences. Wine and landscape together offer a relaxed introduction to an important part of local food culture. This optional tasting costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Return to the safari vehicles for an additional sunset game drive in Kruger National Park. Scan the landscape for elephants, rhinos and other wildlife as temperatures ease and the light changes.

Kruger’s animals move freely through a vast protected area, so another outing means another chance to notice behaviour or species missed on the included drives. The bush in late-afternoon light is a reward in its own right. This optional drive costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Gather for a traditional South African braai at the Kruger safari camp, with barbecued food, local sides and desserts. Share a meal in the open-air setting of the camp.

A braai is more than a cooking method in South Africa: it is a familiar way to bring people together around a fire. Conversation beneath the night sky gives this dinner its distinctive safari-camp atmosphere. This optional experience costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Choose an adventure activity at Victoria Falls Bridge, with options to jump, zipline or swing above the Zambezi gorge. The bridge spans the river between Zimbabwe and Zambia, placing the landscape at the centre of the experience.

Opened in 1905, this railway bridge has become a setting for high-adrenaline activities beside the falls. The deep gorge and rushing river below make each choice distinctly different from sightseeing on foot. Activities cost extra and can be booked on tour.

Join a locally guided village tour in the Victoria Falls area to meet residents and learn about everyday life beyond the waterfall viewpoints. Listen to local perspectives on the community and its surroundings.

The visit offers a cultural counterpoint to the region’s wildlife and adventure activities. Conversation with a local guide helps make the experience more personal and grounded in place. This optional tour costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Track signs of wildlife on foot with a guide in Zambezi National Park. Look beyond the larger animals to notice plants, tracks and smaller creatures that are easy to miss from a vehicle.

Walking brings attention to the details of the bush and to how its species share the same habitat. Learning to read the landscape makes this a different kind of safari from a game drive. This optional guided walk costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Fly above Victoria Falls by helicopter for an aerial view of the waterfall, rising spray and the Zambezi gorge. See the river’s course and the breadth of the falls from a perspective unavailable on the walking paths.

Seasonal river levels change the pattern of water over the precipice, but the flight reveals the scale of the falls and their surrounding landscape in any season. This optional experience costs extra and can be booked on tour.

Cruise the Chobe River at sunset, watching for hippos in the water, crocodiles on the banks and other animals coming down to drink. The boat offers a low, river-level vantage point on the park’s wildlife.

Chobe’s riverfront is especially important to animals seeking water, including its well-known elephants. Wildlife against the evening river light makes this a distinct alternative to a game drive. This optional cruise costs extra and can be booked on tour.
