A great trip led by our expert driver/guide Colin. We saw lots of wildlife, drove through ever changing landscape and stayed in excellent accommodation. The only downside was long driving days with no aircon in the truck.

What an amazing trip. We saw so many different cultures while visiting. Our tour guide was so enthusiastic about his country. His knowledge was unbelievable. So glad I got to share in the beauty of this country. Every where we went was so interesting and I learned so much. Definitely a trip for your bucket list.

South Africa & Eswatini - December 2026

This was a great tour - albeit full on and with a lot of travelling involved. However this was outweighed by seeing such a diverse range of landscapes and wildlife and experiencing so much in a short space of time. The game drives were the stand out for me, we were lucky enough to see the big 5 and it was honestly an incredible experience. I'd have loved to have had more time in the Kruger National Park, as our time was limited. Highlights include: The incredible landscapes in the Drankensberg Mountains, the hippo cruise in St Lucia and the game drives in Kruger. Seeing lions in their natural habitat was a dream come true, but the elephants have to be the star of the show. As someone who has never been on safari, this was the perfect introduction to this type of holiday and I'm already planning the next. Thanks Explore!

No booking fees

Best price guaranteed

South Africa is a country that thrills at every turn — and this journey blends the wild, the refined, and the unforgettable. Begin in Kruger National Park, tracking lions and elephants on foot alongside expert guides who know the bush like no one else. Then trade safari for sophistication in Stellenbosch, pedalling E-bikes through sun-drenched vineyards and sampling world-class wines straight from the source. Cap it all off with a coastal finale: paddling across glittering Table Bay, sipping cocktails atop Table Mountain, and winding your way along the dramatic Cape Peninsula. Adventure and indulgence, nature and culture — this is South Africa at its most spectacular.

So, grab your binoculars, charge your camera, and prepare for front-row seats to some of nature’s most jaw-dropping moments.

A wonderful experience in seeing South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. Although the travel time is long due to the distance covered, the sites and activities are great.
