Travel Butlers work with over 1400 safari lodges, hotels & guest houses across South Africa and Namibia, and we have personally visited the vast majority of these. This extensive experience means we are ideally placed to help you find the South Africa holiday that is best for you.
You can either ask us to recommend a safari or holiday or research your trip for yourself with our African Safari Guide and tips for booking a budget safari or family safari.

Cape Town and The Garden Route
Cape Town is one of the world's most beautiful cities, and many of the most popular South Africa safari holiday routes combine a few days here with a trip along the Garden Route and a safari in the Eastern Cape or Greater Kruger Park.
