Your Private South Africa Trip
South Africa is one of those countries that gets under your skin, the beauty, the people, and the wildlife will make a lasting impression on anyone who visits. South Africa was my home for 10 years, and I love the diversity of the country. You could spend a weekend in the winelands or on safari or hiking up mountains, the options are endless.
The people of South Africa are warm and friendly and there is always music and dancing. The safari guides are some of the best in Africa, they have a passion for what they do and are highly trained. The lodges are committed to protecting the wildlife to conserve it for future generations. There are numerous conservation programs guests can get involved in when they visit. One of my favourite pastimes on safari is sitting on the deck watching the elephants, Jamala Madikwe has a fantastic viewing deck.

Gemma our Africa Safari Specialist
What are the best destinations to combine with a South African safari?
Most people would combine one of the following areas with their safari:
1. Cape Town offers a great contrast to a safari, a modern city with a great food and wine scene. There is also history, wildlife and beaches.
2. The Garden Route is a beautiful area of coastline with long beaches, forests and rivers to explore.
3. Many people will fly to Mozambique or Mauritius after their safari to enjoy the warm Indian Ocean and white sand beaches.
Is South Africa expensive?
The currency in South Africa is the Rand and it is quite weak against the major currencies. Your money goes a very long way in South Africa. People are always amazed that they can eat and drink in award-winning restaurants at a fraction of the usual cost.
Is South Africa a good destination for families?
South Africa is one of the few countries in Africa that has malaria-free safaris, this is so important, especially for small children. These malaria-free reserves have lodges that are specially designed for families. They have special kids clubs, kids game drives and are fully fenced to keep the wildlife out of camp. Aside from safari, South Africa has great beaches, forest to explore and rivers to kayak. There is an endless list of outdoor activities for a family to enjoy.
Is South Africa safe?
This is a common question for travellers. I lived there for 10 years and it’s just about taking sensible precautions. Keep your personal belonging safe and be discreet with expensive items. At night, it is fine to walk around the Waterfront area of Cape Town as it is a busy restaurant and shopping area. Ubers are common throughout South Africa and easy to order. Your hotel will also help you to arrange transport. They are also so many guided days tours available; the tour leader will be local and ensure your safety. It’s also a great way to see the real South Africa. On safari, you will be completely safe but there are procedures to follow to ensure your safety. Your guide will run through all of these when you arrive on safari.
