    1 Day's Safari in Pilanesberg National Park - January 2026

    5
    Just a short drive from Johannesburg, Pilanesberg National Park offers a thrilling one-day safari for those eager to encounter South Africa’s iconic Big Five—elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion, and leopard. Renowned for its unique geological setting, the park sits in the remnants of an ancient volcano, providing both dramatic scenery and rich biodiversity. Begin your adventure with an early morning arrival and an exciting game drive, pausing at key viewpoints and the Pilanesberg Centre for lunch. Here, you can photograph animals gathering at the waterhole and browse for authentic African handicrafts. The afternoon brings further game-spotting opportunities, with a chance to see some of the 370+ bird species that call the reserve home. For those seeking a day of wildlife and natural beauty within easy reach of the city, this trip’s USP is its combination of world-class game viewing and fascinating geological history, all in a single, memorable day.

    South Africa Walking Adventure - January 2026

    5
    This was an excellent trip very efficiently run. Two nights in every location except the last worked well. The accommodation standard was excellent and all the food was very good, including that prepared by the leaders. The trip was a very good mixture of game driving, hiking, a history day and driving days (I enjoy seeing the countryside and I listen to audio books to help pass the time). The last two and a half hiking days in the Drakensberg were a real highlight. Only one day, the hike in Eswatini, failed to impress as it was on a big track most of the time. Overall, this gives a very good introduction to the east of South Africa with not too much time spent in the truck. Oh, and the truck was very spacious and comfortable, not a minibus as I expected.

    Stellenbosch Hot Air Balloon & Champagne - January 2026

    5
    Experience breathtaking views of South Africa's wine region, Stellenbosch, from a hot air balloon during this ten-hour, guided tour and taste locally produced Methode Cap Classique (MCC) wines, South Africa's equivalent of French Champagne. This tour starts with a pickup at your hotel in Cape Town form where we will drive you to the balloon launch site in Stellenbosch. See hills swathed with neat rows of vines and quaint buildings from above as you fly over the area. Toast the landing where ever that may be with a traditional glass of sparkling wine and/or orange juice. Our retrieval vehicle will take you back to the venue for breakfast/brunch. Receive a commemorative certificate which proves that you defied the laws of gravity. Time to sample some locally produced sizzling bubbles after your feet are safely back on the ground during a visit to the wine estates that you flew over. Without any delay, we head off to the house of JC Le Roux, a leading wine estate dedicated exclusively to creating sparkling wine. It was also the first wine estate in South Africa to undertake this endeavour. Using traditional French technique, this wine estate created South Africa's finest, vintage Methode Cap Classiques. Our next stop Lanzerac Wine Estate. This wine estate came to existence in 1962 when Isaac Schrijver was granted a piece of land by the then Governor of the Cape, Simon Van Der Stel, and it has since grown into an iconic South African wine estate it is today. Sample their Methode Cap Classique (MCC) before it is time to head home. We will drop you off at your hotel in Cape Town after the tour is over.
