CAPE TOWN A few days in Cape Town is one of the best ways to begin your time in this spectacular country with plenty to keep you entertained, no matter what your tastes. Head up to the top of Table Mountain, dine on the lively Victoria & Albert waterfront and visit the penguin colony at Boulders Beach – there’s a wonderful variety that’ll keep both children and adults happy.
WINELANDS Just a short journey from Cape Town, you’ll find the enticing Winelands. With French Huguenots settling in the Franschhoek Valley over 300 years ago, this small town still resonates with its European past and the locals here even celebrate Bastille Day each year. Billing itself as the gastronomic capital of South Africa, it’s hard to choose where to eat with so many superb restaurants on offer. Comparatively, Stellenbosch is an elegant, historical town with distinctly Dutch influences that has a slightly louder buzz about it than Franschhoek, yet offers the same array of restaurants and delicious local wines.
KRUGER NATIONAL PARK A safari is the perfect way to end any holiday in Africa; you just have to choose the style of adventure you prefer. Kruger National Park is the most iconic of South Africa safaris, with Big Five game viewing and beautiful bushveld to discover – and the added exclusivity of a private game reserve makes it a much more personalised experience. Sip on sundowners and dine on outstanding food out in the bush, by the crackling fire of a traditional boma and under a star-studded night sky.person per day on top of above rates.
