TAILOR-MADE INSPIRATION

Wonders of South Africa

15 days from Port Elizabeth to Kruger

Why we love this itinerary

We've combined the best of South Africa starting with the Garden Route and ending with a Kruger safari making sure there is no compromise in the quality of what you'll see - what's not to love?! This is a self-guided trip which means you can run it when you want to, with whoever you want to! We recommend July to October so that you have the chance to see the whales migrating along the way.

​The Garden Route is a very special part of South Africa as you get to experience the magnificent whale migration, fabulous wine and food, and stunning scenery as well. This trip brings out your inner outdoorsy side and with organised day trips along the way as well as that much needed free time, so you are able to explore everything this part of the world has to offer.

We recommend staying in upmarket 4-5* well priced accommodation to really enhance your trip, and let the places you stay become part of the memorable moments, not just a place to rest your head.
