Itinerary: Cape, Safari & Falls

South Africa

Coastal cities, vineyard valleys, wild plains and one of Africa’s great natural wonders.

Coastal cities, vineyard valleys, wild plains and one of Africa’s great natural wonders.

A journey through southern Africa that brings together four very different landscapes. Begin in Cape Town, where mountains meet the Atlantic, before slowing down among the vineyards and restaurants of the Cape Winelands. From here, head into the bush for days shaped by game drives, wildlife and wide-open landscapes, then finish beside the Zambezi at Victoria Falls, with time to experience the falls themselves and the river beyond.

The Journey

Cape Town

01 — Cape Town

4 Nights

Begin in Cape Town, where mountains meet the Atlantic and the city’s creative energy spills into its restaurants, galleries and neighbourhoods. Explore the peninsula, spend time by the ocean and discover a city shaped as much by its dramatic setting as its food, culture and design.

Safari

03 — Safari

4 Nights

Trade vineyards for wilderness and settle into the rhythm of safari. Early mornings and late afternoons are spent out in the landscape in search of wildlife, while the hours between belong to the lodge: long lunches, quiet decks and the sounds of the bush beyond.
