These holiday suggestions give you the opportunity to experience the best that South Africa and Mozambique offer, and go home fully refreshed, reinvigorated and wanting to return again. Whether you want to combine the bright city lights with a wildlife adventure and laid back beach life, or if you just want a safari and beach combo, we can help you create your perfect holiday.
To get the city buzz, why not start with a few nights in the 'Mother City', Cape Town. Nestled at the foot of the majestic Table Mountain and bordered by the Atlantic Ocean, Cape Town is consistently voted among the top cities in the world to visit. It is no surprise therefore that this wonderful city is one of the highlights of a holiday to South Africa. The climate is Mediterranean, with mild winters and hot summers.
Wine lovers can consider heading to the neighbouring Winelands, and exploring the many wineries here. There are literally scores of wine estates, and staying in the area will give you the chance to either search out the labels you are familiar with from home or to go on a voyage of discovery and find new favourites.
You can then head to one of South Africa's plethra of Big 5 game reserves. Morning and afternoon game drives in the company of a skilled and knowledgeable ranger take you deep into the African bush so you can experience for yourself the superb wildlife found here. Setting out in the late afternoon is the ideal time to spot leopard and lion emerging to drink water or rest before the night's hunt. Early morning game drives are a journey through the magic of the African sunrise as the bush begins to come to life and welcome the new day.
After a string of sunrise game drives on safari, you may be longing for a lie in, a sun lounger and a Long Island Ice Tea. Heading to Mozambique, you’ll be transported straight into postcard-perfect tropical paradise where you can enjoy lazy, lingering breakfasts or sundowner drinks overlooking the Indian Ocean as the coconut palms sway in the breeze. Snorkel through colourful coral, horse ride along the beach, sailing into the sunset on a traditional dhow, or learn to scuba dive. It’s a blissful way to relax before heading home.
Here are just a few suggestions to get you started planning this dream holiday, so you can experience this all for yourself.
