Overview
Everything you need at a glance — from who this package suits best to how the stay, pacing, and routing feel on the ground.
This 10-night dual-country journey is one of the greatest wildlife adventures you can take — beginning with the dramatic scenery and culture of Cape Town before venturing deep into African bush on private game drives in Kruger National Park, and culminating in the legendary Masai Mara in Kenya.
Travel July through October for the best chance to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration — over a million animals crossing the Mara River in one of nature's most dramatic spectacles. The rest of the year offers equally rewarding year-round Big Five sightings. Breakfasts included throughout; pricing is tailored to group size, lodge grade, and season.

About the destination
South Africa is a country of extraordinary contrasts — world-class wine estates and penguin colonies on the Cape Peninsula, pulsing culture in Cape Town's colourful Bo-Kaap, and roaring wildlife on Kruger National Park safaris. The Garden Route links pristine coastal scenery, ancient forests, and adventure towns in one spectacular drive. With superb infrastructure, an warm climate, and some of the finest game viewing on the continent, South Africa makes the perfect gateway into Africa.
