Overview

Create lifetime family memories with this classic South African itinerary. Bringing together the right accommodation in the right places, the tour opens with apartment-style living at Romney Park Luxury Apartments where you have the convenience of a fully-kitted apartment the central suburb of Greenpoint. You are only a short distance from the waterfront and a short drive from Table Mountain and the beaches of Camps Bay. Three nights here gives you plenty of time to book tours for the rest of the peninsula and take in the Boulders Beach penguins and Cape Point. Then you are whisked off to the winelands to Hazendal Hotel, a family-friendly wine estate near Stellenbosch in the Cape Winelands.

Settle down for two nights with the Cape Winelands at your doorstep. Enjoy a wealth of family-friendly experiences and estates such as Babylonstoren and Boschendal Estate. Fly directly to the Kruger Park and one of its legendary private game reserves for a Big 5 safari. The Timbavati Reserve adjoins the Kruger but is privately managed, giving you the advantage of far fewer other visitors and safari activities not normally permitted in the Kruger, like bush walks and night game drives. Well known for its wildlife, this is one of the best places in Africa to see lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino and elephant plus a host of other familiar and not-so-familiar creatures.

Well-paced with all airport transfers and local flights included, this is a tour that covers all the bases. All accommodations are en suite, suitable for children of all ages, and your Timbabvati accommodation has a special family safari programme with age-appropriate activities if children are too young for game drives and walks.

Itinerary information

You swap an urban environment for a rural one today but the mountain scenery remains. Instead of Table Mountain, you now have the Stellenbosch Mountains as your backdrop while you check into Hazendal Hotel, set on the eponymous wine estate and your leafy retreat for the next two nights. There is plenty to do for all ages at Hazendal and in the surrounding Cape Winelands area.

A family stay in the Cape Winelands is all about relaxed days filled with good food, fresh air, and plenty of ways to keep everyone entertained. Parents can sip award-winning wines while the kids run free on sprawling lawns or meet friendly farm animals. Enjoy gentle vineyard walks or cycling through scenic trails. Afternoons could be spent picnicking under ancient oaks, tasting artisanal cheeses, or exploring nearby markets and chocolate shops.

Itinerary information

A transfer back to Cape Town Airport and a flight to the town of Hoedspruit takes you to within arm’s length of the Kruger National Park. But your destination is a private reserve that adjoins the Kruger, giving you all the wildlife of South Africa’s best safari destination but in an exclusive and unspoilt setting. You check into an air-conditioned two-bedroom chalet at Simbavati River Lodge and can look forward to morning and afternoon game drives with sharp-eyed guides on the lookout for the classic Big 5 animals – lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino and elephant – plus hippo, giraffe, zebra and all the other animals from our story books.

Younger children won’t be left behind in the fun: the lodge provides supervised activities that range from archery and animal tracking to pizza making. And because Timbavati is a private reserve, you can also look forward to opportunities to explore on foot with your guide as well as spot-lit night drives, a rare treat and the best way to see Africa’s elusive nocturnal creatures such as bush babies and porcupines.

Simbavati River Lodge information

  • Excellent river front location - one of the best in the Timbavati

  • Welcoming and relaxed atmosphere

  • Expansive deck and lounge to relax

  • Perfect for families, with 2-bedroom chalets

  • Fantastic value for money

Fully Inclusive (All Meals, Selected Beverages)
