The capital of South Africa and one of the world’s most recognisable cities, Cape Town - or the Mother City as it is often known - is a cacophony of cultures that has worked hard to establish peaceful coexistence. Nowadays Christians, Muslims and Hindus rub shoulders with the traditional African practices that are indigenous to South Africa. After a turbulent past, every culture and lifestyle is accepted as a key ingredient to Cape Town’s unique flavour. The result of such an inclusive atmosphere? A creative freedom that has painted the city in every colour and pattern imaginable. From the natural wonders of Table Mountain to the local goods of Bay Harbour Market, holidays to Cape Town is a feast for the senses.

The trip was incredible - the cultural activities, the scenery, the people, the animals, the food, and everything else South Africa had to offer. We got remarkably lucky with some of the animal sightings which made the trip extra special. While there were some long travel days and it was fast-paced, the itinerary was a good mix of safaris and other experiences that kept it feeling fresh, and the accommodations were fantastic. Our trip manager was amazing. He was organized and good at communicating the day's activities, made sure everyone was having fun and kept the good vibes going, and gave us great recommendations during free time, as well as provided unique insight on the history of South Africa. Our drivers and game drive guides were also wonderful and full of knowledge. This was my first Contiki trip and it was an amazing experience, I'd recommend it to anyone.

This truly was a South Africa highlights tour. We saw the big 5 in Kruger, whales at Hermanus, penguins, coastline, Table Mountain.....the list is endless. We had an amazing guide, Tshepo, who was a fount of knowledge, always helpful and in a good humour. I would definitely recommend this trip.

Cycling the Cape and Winelands

I can't tell you how enjoyable this trip was. We were 8 people in the group, as well as our brilliant guide Ado and the excellent driver Gavin. So much work went into making this trip just amazing. Everything worked out just perfectly, we had no punctures or problems at all. Ado's knowledge of South Africa and its history was incredible as well as the entire continent. The group all got on well with one another and we stayed at some really nice hotels along the way. The only thing is I wanted to do it all over again!

An absolute trip of a lifetime! What a fantastic holiday. It was an action packed holiday but I feel we got everything we wanted out of this trip and more. The safaris are excellent, we managed to see the big 5 and the drivers really go above and beyond to try and spot as many animals as they can for you. The additional activities were also amazing, we had an amazing time on the rafting and also on the swing / zip line in Zimbabwae. The people within our group were the best group of people you could ask for and really took our trip to the next level. We have to give a massive shout out to our guide *personal info removed by Feefo*. What an amazing man he is! He went above and beyond to ensure we all knew the time table for the days, answered any questions we had, was so knowledgeable about the places we visited and the local culture. We felt 100% safe in his care, and this also stands for all our drivers etc throughout the trip. He also went above his role for us as he helped my boyfriend to plan the perfect proposal to myself, so we really cannot thank him enough. Yes you have to pay for many of the additional activities but it is TOTALLY worth it - it will be trip we will never forget and will keep in our hearts forever. Do not hesitate to book this trip!

I loved my trip and had the adventure of a lifetime! *personal info removed by Feefo* , our guide, was fantastic, friendly, fun, and very knowledgeable. We felt very well looked after. The locations and activities were incredible. I did almost everything, so I was exhausted, but it was all worth it for the experience. I had an amazing time.
