Day to Day Itinerary

Days 1-4

Discover the Mother City

Your adventure begins today as you arrive in Cape Town and collect your rental car from the airport. A short drive will take you to the city centre and your home for the next four days - Welgelegen Guest House.

This beautiful and elegant guesthouse is ideally located to explore all the attractions that the Mother City has to offer.

Hike or take the cable car up Table Mountain or board the ferry to historic Robben Island for a history lesson. You can also go shopping at the V&A Waterfront or explore fashionable Kloof Street and vibrant Long Street on foot - they're lined with restaurants, bars and a range of eclectic boutiques.

Just a 10-minute drive from town will take you to the beautiful white-sand city beaches of Camps Bay and Clifton where you can soak up the sun before enjoying a cocktail at one of the nearby bars and restaurants.

Days 5-7

Search for the Big 5

Return to Cape Town International Airport today and catch your flight to Mpumalanga. From the airport you'll be transferred to Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve, bordering the world-famous Kruger National Park, and check in at Arathusa Safari Lodge for the following three nights.

Sabi Sands offers unparalleled, exclusive Big 5 game viewing: many guests spot each member of the Big 5 on their first day. The area in which you'll be staying is well known for its rich diversity of wildlife -  exceptional sightings of leopard and massive herds of buffalo are commonplace.

Enjoy fascinating game drives and informative nature walks with experienced guides and trackers who will help you learn more about this remarkable area.

Day 8

Spend the night in Johannesburg

Located within The Emperor's Palace Hotel and also conveniently close to the airport, this will be your home for the night. Enjoy shopping, dining and gaming at this glitzy casino resort or just have a quiet night in - there's plenty more in store.

Days 9-11

Explore the Chobe National Park

Continue your adventure this morning as you fly to Victoria Falls Airport and transfer to Chobe Game Lodge, your home for the following three nights. Situated in Botswana's Chobe National Park, the lodge is set in riverine woodlands and overlooks the beautiful Chobe River and Caprivi floodplains.

A birdwatchers paradise, Chobe is home to an abundance of wildlife including predators such as leopard, lion and wild dog, large herds of elephant and hippo plus puku, red lechwe and sable antelope. Late dry season game viewing - August to October - is exceptional.

Spend your days exploring this remarkable area on thrilling game drives in open-sided safari vehicles or go on a romantic sunset cruise down the river, game viewing along the way.

The camp is well known for its regular visitors: elephants can often be seen wandering around the front of the camp or drinking at the waterhole.
