South Africa is a country of great
diversity, and offers something for almost
everyone.

Along the South Africa coast youll find some of the
worlds most scenic and uncrowded beaches. Nature enthusiasts can search out the
wildlife while living in luxurious lodges at private game reserves around
Kruger National Park. For wine aficionados, the Cape Winelands are dotted with
vineyards that rival the best in France. Plan to spend at least 3 days or
more in Cape Town its one of the most beautiful and vibrant cities
in the world. The Victoria and Alfred Waterfront boasts some of the citys
best dining and shopping. For a birds eye view, take a scenic helicopter flight
over the spectacular Cape Peninsula, ride the funicular to Cape Point and take
the cable car to the top of Table Mountain. You can also visit Robben Island to
see where Nelson Mandela was held prisoner. If you have more time, take a drive
outside of Cape Town through the Cape Winelands to the historic town of
Stellenbosch, Wine tastings at some of South Africas premiere wine
estates or even a home hosted dinner with South Africans can often be arranged
with advance notice. There are several deluxe hotels to choose from but
our favorites are the Cape Grace Hotel and the Table Bay Hotel on
Cape Towns waterfront and the Grand Roche Hotel, a Relais &
Chateaux property in the heart of the Cape Winelands.
Kruger National
Park and the adjacent Sabi Sand Game Reserve offer a great variety of wildlife
and have some of the best areas to photograph the big cats. There are several
small luxury lodges to choose from in the Kruger area One of the legendary
lodges is Mala Mala, which provides some of the best prime game-viewing
and is known for its very knowledgeable, dedicated rangers. However, some of
the newer lodges in the area have been created to provide every indulgence in
the Africa bush, including suites with private plunge pools, open air showers,
private viewing decks, private butlers, full service health spas, extensive
wine cellars and gourmet cuisine. Weve had great feed back on the
Singita lodges - Boulders, Ebony and Lebombo as well as Sabi
Sabi's lodges - Selati, Bush and the unique Earth Lodge sculpted deep into
the earth.
